R. Giddings, has been arrested and beld to bail in the sum of $30,009 for an al- leged complicity in the case. This report is | probably incorrect, unless, indeed, Mr. Gid- | = bas been made the victim of sececsion j ate. | Redpath was arrested and brought to New | York a@ violent manner, and, as he alleges, On & warrant from the coisul general. Here | he wes. cs he says, imprisoned and very badly | treated. The Montreal Witness asserts that on the 3st of October two men, Jones, Canadian officer, | and Hawkins, a discharged soldier, met a per- son named Redpath in one of the principal streets of Montreal. Jones told R-dpath that | he was a prisoner; that Jones and Hawkins meant to take him to the United States to ancwer toa charge of murder and arson: and when he esked their authority showed him | what purported to be paper signed by Mr. | Giddings, the United States consul-general. | meses went with them. first toa cab, then aboard a ferry boat, and finally ou: of the limits of Canada. He was brougbi, i: is said, to this city. was here under arrest for some days, and was finally eet adritt, there being no charges sgainst him, and returned home. He intends, at is said, to bring suit for false imprisonment, ; The New York World has a letter from Mon_ treal, in which the writer Says that as the | name of the Hon. Joshua R. Giddings has be:o mixed up in the affuir, that gentleman has written to the Montrea! Herald to explain how he became connected with it. Mr. Giddings says that a man called at the | office of the American consulate, stating that he b-lIenced to the detective police of the Grand Trovk railway; that he wished to start by that aft‘ rnoon’s cars for New York, in order to con- vey & pri:over thither; that as the prisoner was a dangerous mau he thought it was proper to «employ ar assistant but was apprehensive that the latter would not get paid when he reacbed New York. The counsel replied, as- suring the man that when the prisoner was de- liverca up to the United States marshal that officer wovld see him rewarded. The man then observed that it was arranged to take the pri- Soner away, and requested the consul general to give him a note advising the payment of the assistaut. The consul observed that there would be no doubt of such payment, and, with- ont detaining the mau, gave hima vote ade dressed to Mr. Kenuedy, of New York, recom- prndibe the payment. The consul adds, in his etter: “Tbe man appeared gentlemanly: was a Ca- adirp_ officer, as 1 suppposed, with whose duties I possessed no right or disposition to in- terfere. On the contrary, I felt that delicacy forbade ¢ier inquiry or counsel to an officer of the Canadian Government. * * * Thad not the moct distant idea of writing or saying anything that couldin any way affect therizht: or literties of any person farther than related tothe poymen!, nor could my note or words have furi.ished any pretext for sucha charge.” The facts appear to be as follows, as given by the New York Post: : “During the July riots in this lows named Eurke and Lewis the mob on the western side of the town. They rode en hore-back, levied black mail on re- *pectable citizens, and incited the rioters to burn down houses on Broadway, and Twenty- Pele snd Twenty-ninth streets, and to cruel. | Yyuse and burn’ black people. When the | on P m the beens red these *coundrels, of course, vy be found. The vity two fel- "2 leaders of Redpeth. wards = Montreal, passed ageumed that name, and h by any other ns-, Mbt known there | ‘agged about the wment share he had taken in the New York riots. Burke was also at one time in Montreal.” ‘The toasts of Lewis attracted the attention of the Montreal police, and a detective named Thomes P. Jones telegraphed frequently to the New York police autborities, and the lat. | ter replied that they wanted Burke, but that | there was no charge against Lewis. This dis. patch failed to reach Jones, and he conse- qrertly brought Redpath to New York, where he was subsequently released. It was Red- prth’s own foolish ting that caused his arrest, and it is clear from the facts stated that either Mr. Giddings nor the police anthor- Publicly as Lewis, | ites of New York were to blame; bat that the foolish zeal of the Canadian detective brought about the circumstances which are making taik in Montreal. | Bi | The R | his prescription TELEGRAPHIC NEWS.

Lee Reported alt Back te Hanover un Wa8HINGTON, Nov. 1S.—{ Dispatch to Phila- delphia Inguirer.J—The latest dispatch irom ore of the Inquirer’s specials at the front, re- ceived at midnight, states that Lee, in antici- pation of a forward movemant by Meadc, had ‘ commenced falling back towards Hanover Junction, with one-half his army, to cover Richmond, while the other half had gone to- wards Lynchburg, to take part in the opera- tions against Burnside. FROM CHATTANOOGA. at W iz to Bragg—A Bloody and Decisive Struggle Looked For. CHATTANOOGA, Noy. 16.—All is quist on our , tront. The rebel battery oa Lookout Mountain has been quite vigorously worked to-day, fir- ing alterpately on Hooker's camp, Moccasin Poini, and the Chattanooga camps. Rebel shells are also ccvasionally thrown into town. The revel fire, aithough a plunging one, is neither accurate nor effective. No casualties are reported here. On Moccasin Point our bat- teries have 4 splendid rane of the rebel camps in the Chattanooga yalley on the east side of Lookout Mountain. * The movemerts of the rebels at one time favored the belief that they would advance in large force on Hooker’s position, and endeavor to drive him out of it, but the strength of that osition. and the advantageous way in which ooker has disposed of his forces, and the co- operation which he can receive from ether forces, has undoubtedly led the rebels to aban- don the scheme. The latest information from our scouts is contradictory of former reports. It is now said that the Western and Atlantic | Railroad bas been worked to its full capacity bringing reinforcements to Bragg, and that the road trom Chickamauga Station for eight miles south is lined with rebel camps. The campaign will not be closed without a decisive and bloody struggle for the possession of Chattanooga and East Tennessee. +208 + IMPROVEMENTS IN BroaDWay—Helabold’s New Drug Store.—If the lordly secesh rebels who | Were wont to promenade Broadway in thesum- mer and autumn, and who so confidently pre- dicted that grass would commence growiiug in that thoroughfare so soon as they decided to } shukethe cust off their feet and stop shaking the dust out of their pockets tor our benefit, could just take one glance back upon their old promenade, as many of them, we doubt not, would be glad to do, they would discover two things—first, how silly and self-conceited they were, and second, how easily we can do with- eutthem. They would find changes in Broad- way, to besure, but instead of grass and weeds they would find marble taking the place of urick, iron the place of wood, and all the evi- dences of improvement and prosperity, instead of dilapidation and decay. Not the least among the more recent improve- ments that would strike their attention would be the magnificent new drug store and chemi- cal warehouse laiely opened by the renowned Philadelphia pharmaceutist, Mr. bold, at No. 5% Broadway, adjoining their old tavorite resort, the Metropclitan Hotel. establishment is just zow the Hon among the MLPA Y Ws ML BPS Wa Hud_is daily, ang and splendor.

The drug store proper is unlike any other heretofore seen in this city, and is probably unequaled in the world. It would he a work of supererozation to give # detailed description of what everybody is flocking to see for himself, but it may not be amiss to mention one novelty connected with the establishment—the reception room.

An occasional shot and shell bas been thrown by the enemy at Moultrie. This afternoon some few shells fell at Mount Pleasant. We have not heard of any casual- ties. No report trom the fort this evening. [SECOND DISPATCH.) CHARLESTON, Nov. 11.—A moderate fire was kept up on Sumter last night. No report from the fort this morning. lere Was one man killed at Moultrie yesterday. [THIED DISPATCH.) CHARLESTON, Ituv. 14.—@ee cucu, on Sumter continues steady. Battery Gregg opened fire this afiernoon on James Island and Fort Moultrie. Fort Lamar and Battery Sumpkins replied. No casualties reported this even. The monitors fired a few shots. (FOURTH bIsPatcR.] CHARLESTON, Nov. 15.—Firing about the same today. From Thursday morning to sundown on Saturday 1,523 mortar shells and 1ifle shots were fired at Fort Sumter, of which <v5 missed. The enemy’s fire has ceased to be of any injury to the fort. No firing to-day on Sullivan’s or James Islands. The batteries continue to keep up a slow fire on Gregg and the mortar battery. The Whig thinks the approaching Christmas will be a bine one with them. Taking te Cabbage. The Whig notices the sale to the hospitals at Danville of 100,000 heads of cabbages at 23c. per head. From a notice in the Whig from the Major of Engineers in charge of Richmond defenses, all persons are prohibited from cutting timber Within 600 feet of the breastworks around that ‘2 fro city. The blockade of the port ot Wilmington, N. G., is represented by the Journal of that city as becoming more rigid, and some fast vessels are employed inenforting it. The blockading fleet is believed to have been increased. From Northern Virginia. There is nothing of additional interest from the two armies in Northern Virginia. Meade’s designs are as yet undeveloped, unless Gen. Lee has already penetrated them, Some firing was heard yesterday morning in the direction ef Morton’s Ford on the Rapidan. Some are of the opinion it was caused by an attempt of the enemy to force a passage, but it was prob- ably an exchange of cannon shots only. The Yankees that came to Liberty Mills, tion Friday, and were driven back, was a tor- eging party. From Southwestern Vi i The Abingdon Virygivian says the nearest point heard of the Yankees on the East Tennes- see and Virginia railroad,is Bell’s Gap, sixteen mites beyond Greenville.

Gen. Polk, Lieut. Gen. Hill, Maj.Gen. For- rest, Maj. Gen. Cheatham and Maj. Gen. Buck- ner. With the exception of Gen. Hill these officers have served from the begining with that army, commanded ite confidtnce—some of them to & high degree of enthusiasm—and were undoubtedly among the most skillful, intrepid 2nd devoted of leaders. But great as was sbele yalne tothat army, if their riniare weed left nothing but concord and neemony ae they could well have been spared. ni Fare nately, the information that reaches us re otherwise.

Gen. Hurlburt has issued the following gen+ eral orders: i People in the district west the Tennessee and north the counties of Mississippi,having shown no disposition and made no attempt to protect themselves from marauders and guerilla bands, but having submitted themselves without or- ganized resistance to the domination of these petty tyrants, and combined in many instans-~ with our enemies to procure from corrapt tra- ders of the city.of Memphis and elsewhere supplies for the use of the public enemy, proved themselves unworthy of the indulgence shown them by the Government, itis therefore or- dered that the lines of pickets around the sey. eral military posts of this command be closed and that no goods of any description be allowed to pass ont nor anything to be brought in ex. - capt fire-wood and provisions, by any citizen without the written order of some general officer.

SanDy Hoog, Noy. 19.—The Persia from J.:verpool on the 7th and Queenstown on the wt instant, has arrived off this point. Napoleon has issued letters inviting sover- eigns to an European Uongress. The war in New Zealand is progressing un- tavorably to the Moors. Lonpon, Sunday.—Consols closed yesterday After official hours at 91 4a91 y¥, ex-dividend. [SECOND DISraTcu.)} NEw York, Noy. 19.—The steamer Persia arrived up here at ten o’clock. The steamer Georgia captured, some time before her arrival at Cherbourg, the ships John Watt from Moul- main for Cork, and Bold Hunter, from Dundee for Calcutta. It is not stated what she did with them. As she is reported to have bearded upwards of ninety vessels shortly before ar- riving at Cherbourg it is supposed she mad more captures than the above. : The Times, editorially, approves the decisioa of the Court of Exchequer in granting a new trial in the Alexandra case. Lloyds’ Salvage Association will send out an agent to inquire into the capture of the steamer Sir William Peel off Matamoras, and to claim the ship and cargo in the New Orleans prize court. A Paris telegram dissuades Liverpool ship- pers from sending anything to Matamoras, the blockade being effective. Napoleon’s speech to the French legislature is universally discussed. Interpretations differ so widely that while some journals re- gurd itaseminently pacific, others look on it 8s indicative of war. Some English Journals oppose a Congress in Poland, and askif the Emperor really means that war is inevitable without one. The Paris and London journals are alike at variance in their views of the speech. Vienna journals agree that the speech is calculated to create uneasines The Paris bourse is dull and lower at 66f and Me. The ‘La France says diplomatie overtures will follow the speech and the European Congress may be considered as convoked. A letter from Earl Russell to the British Minister in Russia, Gated October 20th is published. It says her 's government have no wish to prolong pondence for mere controversy, and says Russia has special obligations with re- gard to Poland and the rights of Poland are centumed in the same instrament which con- fers the title of King of Poland on the Emperor ef Russia. The King of Grecce has issued a manifesto tony and make theirs the model State of tue ae Benks of France on the 7th advanced ‘he rates of discount trom 5 to 6 per cent.

LivzERPoot, Nov. 7.—The sales of cotton for the week, was thirty thousand bales. The Bank has advanced:the rate of disceunt to 6 per cent., causing an almost entire suspension of business. Prices are one to one and a halt lower. The Bullion in the Bank is six hundred and thirty-eight thousand. Napoleon’s speech, after analyzing the con- dition of the Empire, says certainly the per- petnity of our country would take a more rapid couree if Poland’s preoccupation did not trouble it, but in life of nations events un- foreseen and inevitable arise which must be met without fear and supported without flat- tery: of this number are the war in America, the.compuleory occupation of Mexico and Co- chin Qhina, the insurrection in Poland. These are not so much the result of premeditated plan, but the force of circumstances has | brought them about. Nevertheless, they are* to be regretted.

LOCAL NEWS. — Mose GuEERILLA DerrevaTioxs.—0Un Saturday afternoon, about 5 o'clock, a gang of ! yebel guctrilias made their appéarance abent two miles from Vienna, on the Fairfax road, and captured the following citizens of Fairfax county: D. C. Spear, Richard Bastow, Mrs. Mocein (of Fall’s Church, who was returning trom market at Fairfax Uourt House), — Suman, Jarvis Wright, Samuel Williams (colored) and some sutlers. The guerrilias ‘were dressed in United States uniform (under which they wore the Confederate uniform, and thus approashed their victims without exciting suspicion. They helped themselves freely to whatever of value they found upon the per- sons or vehicles of their prisoners. Erom one of the sutlers they took $300 in greenback, £700 worth of goods and valuables, including @ case of buckskin gloves, and another ot shirts (which captures were hailed with great satisfaction by the robbers,) and also the horses. and harness, leaving the wagon behind. decampéd suddenly, leaving their prisoners behind on hearing the approach of the Union cavalry. It will scarcely be credited that this rang of shirt-stealing highwayren was made up ot young men of leading families of that part of the State, as will be recognized by the follow- ing list ot names of parties recognized in the arty: John Thomas, son of State Senator of ‘airfax; French Delaney, son of Col. Delaney, of Gov. Pierpont's staff; Lient. Spindle, son of Addison Spindle, near Centerville; —— [> Butts, of Loudon county; Lycurgus Hutchin- son, of Green Springs; —— Saunders, of Fox Mills. The guerrillas haye shown themeelyes in numbers, and with great audacity, at various points within the last week. On Monday night, a scouting party from the 13th New York regiment, encountered a gang of guer- rillas in superior numbers near Hunter's Mills, and lost five men captured and one killed. On Sunday night, a gang of 200 guer- rillas were seen between Vienna and Falls Church, by Lieut. Peck, of the 2d D.C. yo!- unteers. Lieutenant Norman Smith, one of thé mozt dashing and desperate of the gang of guerrillae, urder command of Capt. Stringfellow,—who (Stringfellow) was an Episcopal clergyman, & graduate of the Fairfax Episcopal Seminary, was shot lately in an encounter with Colonel Lowell’s Second Massachusetts cavalry, aud } buried near Centerville. Smith was in command of the gang who cap- tured Mr. M. Sweetser, sutler, and fifteen others at Gainesville, lately. —_—_.___ Reve: ToRrEvoges rr James River.— This morning, the Mount Washincton (flaz- ship of Admiral Lee) arrived atthe Navy Yard from Old Point, bringing up two torpedors which were picked up by one of the tugs in James river on Saturday last. The torpedoes consist of a tin can filled with about tweny pounds of powder w.t2 a tin tube leading therefrom, in which iz a time fuse, and a piece of wood enclosing the tube floats it. The two torpedoes were joined by a cord, and it appears that it was intended that when they drifted with the cord against a boat the ends working on the friction ui theend of the fuse would ignite them, and they would Moat against the sides of the vessel and ex- plode. This apparatus was discovered float- ing down by one of the tugs, and suspecting that it was some ot the rebs infernal machines, the crew cut the line and took them up sepa- rately, thereby avoiding an explosion. —— DISsOLUTION oF CocrT Martiar.—tThe Court Martial of waich Gen.

Mavpge RoseRTs versus Mrs. Francesa Jounson.—Yesterday Officer Parker arrested Mrs. Frances Johnson upon a charge of forci- bly detaining goods. belonging to Maude Ro- berts. The return of the case was made to Justice Clayton, when the matter was ex- plained, the goods given up, and the case dis- Missed. It appeared that when Maude opened her house on D street, near 13th, she purchased a stove, &c., from Mrs. Johnson, which she placed there. After Maude’s arrest the goods got into Mrs. Johnson’s possession again ; and Maudé, understanding thatshe would not give the articles up, had recourse to the warrant. Mrs. F.
