SHERIDAN ———— Reconnoissance on the Winchester Road— Kershaw’s Rebel Force Driven on a Run toward Winchester—The 8th South C: elina Regiment Captured. sens aS Tee The following despatch has just been re- ceived from Gen. Sheridan : NEAR BERRYVILLE, 7 p. m., Sept. 13, 1564.— This morning I sent Gen. Getty’s division, of 6th corps, with two brigades of cavalry, to the crossing of the Summit Point and Winchester road, over the Opequan Creek. Rhodes’, Ramseur’s, Gordon’s and Whar- | ton’s divisions were found on the west bank, At the same time Generals Wilson and Mack- intosh’s brigade of cavalry dashed up the Winchester pike, drove the rebel cavalry at a run, came in contact with Kershaw’s division) charged it, and captured the Sth South Caro- lina regiment, 16 officers and 145 men, and its battle-fiag, and Colonel Hennegan, conymand- ing brigade, with a loss of only two men killed and two wounded, Great credit is due to General Wilson and Mackintosh, 3d New Jer- sey and 2d Ohio. The charge was a gallant one. A portion of the 2d Massachusetts Reserve Brigade. made a charge on the right of line, and captured an officer and eleven men of Gordon’s division of infantry. Our loss in the reconnoissance is very light. P. H. SHEBIDAN, Major General. TuE BOLT oF THE CHICAGO PLATFORMERS. The New York correspondent of the Philadel- phia Inquirer say The Daily News, you will see, in its issue of this morning, has this significant paragraph : **We are happy in being able to state that preliminary steps are being taken by the friends of Peace to calia National Convention of the Democracy, to place in nomination candidates for President and Vice President.” The “preliminary steps” above referred to are understood to be, first, a correspondence between the Woods here and the Chairman of the Democratic National Committee; the former asking the latter to reconvene the Chicago Con- vention, and the latter begging leave to de- cline; second, the consideration of a call from | the party of the second part upon all delegates | to that Convention who are in favor of the | platform, to assemble in the same city tonomi- | nate candidates for President and Vice Presi- | dent; and third, the appointment of a commit- tee to wait at once upon Mr. Pendleton to see whether he tco stands by or repudiates the platform. een Re FROM SHERIDAN’S COMMAND Active Operations Soon Expected. Our correspondent with Gen. Sheridan’s army says that although the military situation is at present unchanged, he is of the opinion that there will shortly be a resumption of ac- tive operations. Gen. Averill now has pos- session of Martinsburg, and a train of cars proceeded from Harper’s Ferry to within five miles of the tormer place. It is expected that the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad will be opened through to Cumberland by Friday next, as working parties are busily engaged in repairing damages. Brigadier Gen. Stevenson has issued a very stringent order for the pur- pose of putting a stop to the practice of horse stealing, and fhetrading and trafficing in Jov- ernment horses and mules in his department. He bas one officer under arrest on the charge of being engaged in the business of selling con- demned horses, and, if found guilty, he will doubtless be severely punished.— Baltimore American, Frvanctat.—The New York Commercial ad- vertiser of yeaterday evening says: | straight heats.

The United States mail steamer John Brooks» which left City Point yesterday at 10 o’clock a, m., arrived here this morning at 8 o'clock. She reports that nothing of importance was transpiring at the front when she left. There are fresh indications, however, that the rebels are moving on our left, either for ag- gressive purposes or witha view to preventa similar surprise to that they received on Fri- day night. Since Saturday last their outposts on our left front have been strongly reinforced. Deserters say that Lee’s army has been late- ly strengthened by reinforcements from vari- ous points, and by 8 large number of con- scripts, dragged, as Grant says, from the cra- dle and the graye. These conscripts are the poorest fighting material the Confederacy has et had, and their officers are competed to Keep a watchful eye upon them, as they seize the first opportunity to desert. Hill’s corps has reeeived large accessions of conscripts, which accounts for the numerous desertions of late from that corps. REFUGEES FROM RICHMOND. Three refugees trom Richmond (Patrick Ho- ran, Mrs. Margaret Danahan, and Mrs. Ma garet Brennan,) arrived at Col. Ingraham’ Office to-day, who were sent to this city from the Army of the Potomac by General Patrick, having come within our lines at City Point. Horan says that he has been employed in a Confederate workshop as an engineer, since the breaking out of the rebellion, but as the rebels have commenced to force all such em- ployees into the military service, he deter- mined to make his escape from Richmond, which he accomplished by paying & man three hundred dollars (Confederate money) to pilot him through the rebel lines into those of ours. There are plenty of men in Richmond, these refuges say, who make a “fat thing” of it by acting as pilots for parties who desire to ran the blockade. Theee refugees are aliens, and were released by Col. Ingraham upon taking the oath of fidelity to the United States government. TELEGRAPHIC NEWS. New York Stock Market—First Board.

Thompson in the chair, and Mr. Grinder acting as secretary,) last night, for the purpose of forming & ward campaign association. Dr. Charles Allen, from the cemmittee ap- pointed at a previous meeting, reported a con- stitution and by-laws, which were unani- mously adopted; and the association then pro- ceeded to elect officers. The names of Dr. Allen and Mr. Samuel Taylor were put in nomination for President of the associ: and Dr. Allen withdrawing in favor of Mr. Taylor, the latter was unani- mouasly elected. Mr. Taylor, in taking the chair, spoke of the purposes for which they were associated, among which was the restoration »f the land- marks established by our forefathers, and which had been displaced by the Administra, tion in power. He saw many present with whom he had politically di in the past, and he recommended that for the sake of the good cause they should all let by-gones be by- genes, nes work together harmoniously. [Ap- plause, The association then proceeded to elect its other officers, as follows:—Col.O.A. Alexander, first vice president; Wm. H. Thompson, sec- ond vice president; Peter C. Harvey, treasurer; O. Boswell, secretary; Samuel A. Amery, re- cording secretary. The meeting was then addressed by Capt. J. H. McCutchen, Dr. Allen, and Mr. Thomas B. Florence, after which a call was made for subscribers to the constitution, and quite a number responded by giving their signatures and planking down their dollar subscriptions. ———— ARREST AND RECOVERY OF Money, &c.— Sunday last W. M. Davenport was arrested and sent to jail on suspicion of the robbery of the house of J. Madigan, as reported in the Star ot Monday. Serg’t Cronin who made the arrest, wanted also to arrest Wm. A.G. Jackson, who he suspected to be the principal operator, but he had left the city. Sergeant Cronin sent offi- cer McElfresh, to Alexandria Pippa look after Jackson, and he caught Jackson in a grog shop in the suburbs of thecity. The officer im- mediately searched his prisoner and found Madigan’s gold watch in his pocket, and $445.25 concealed in the lining of his vest. The amount stolen from Madigan was about $550. Jackson ‘was a boarder at Madigan’s house, and knew where Madigan kept hismoney. Jackson was brought to this city last night, and was sent to jail for courtjby Justice Boswell. Davenport, ‘who was arrested on suspicion, was taken to Alexandria to identify Jackson, and as soon as he saw him he seized him, and before the offi- cer could separate them had given Jaskeon a smart thrashing. The suspicion against Day- enport being removed by the capture of Jack- son and the recovery of the property, he was honorably discharged from custody by Justice Boswell this morning. esa ASSAULT AND BattTery Casus.—Night_be- fore last, Joseph Thomas, residing on Vaa street (Island) got into a dispute with his wife and she etrock him over the head with a brick when he struck her back and used her rather roughly. The wife procured a warrant, and be was arrested by Officer Whitmore who took him before Justice Cull and he was held to se- curity for court. ‘ Yesterday afternoon the notorious Matilda Light, who for.some days past has bean board- ing, as she states, at one of our most respecta~ ble hotels, went over to Pear Tree alley where she came across come of herold aintances.

The tast named procured a warrant for the arrest of Till for an assault and battery and Mary Jane Taylor one for the arrest of Mary Stephens for disorderly con- duct on the occasion, and they were arrested by officer Maxwell, and taken before Justice well who committed Till to jail for court, abd committed Mary Stephens to the work- use. nme hael Wolf, a teamster in Rabbit’s camp, on the Island, yesterday got into a difficulty he Andrew Guesett, the watchman, and struck him upon the head with a stick, He /wWas arrested by Officer Weeden, and Justice Boswell held bim to security for court, (OnrHans’ Oourt, | Judge Purcell.—Yester- ay, Mrs. Elizabeth Poe was appointed guar- n of Fernando Poe, orphan of George Poe, Hig George, Cook,ta, the orphans of Ber- q pthe first snd final onnt of Lucinda pton, | adm of, 1 J.

The finid passed déwn the spire of the church into the cupola tearitg away the inner sheeting, and throwing several of the planks about twen- ty feet distant. From the spire rod the light- ning passed to the church bell, where it was arrested in its downward course by the striking machinery of the fire-telegraph, and safely conducted by the telegraph wires out of the church without farther damage. Fortunately for the church, the telegraph wires had been introduced on the day before the storm. Had it not been for the timely protection thus af- forded, the lightning must have passed down through the church, and in its course destroyed the fine organ located immediately below the bell. —— CuTtixne Arratr.—Last night, about 11} o’elock. a fight occurred near the corner of and 20th streets, between four men, Wm. H. Thompson, —— Stewart, Thos. McKeever, and a soldier, name unknown. The cry of m r was heard by officers Stinchcomb and Harris, who ran to the spot and arrested Thompson, Stewart, and McKeever, and took them to the First Ward Station-ho McKeever was badly cut about the han: nd arms, and was stabbed in several places in the back. Dr. Lowrie was called upon and dressed the ‘wounds, and pronounced them to be not dan- gerous. though severe. Thompson was held to bail for a hearing, and Stewart committed to jail. "McKeever was sent to hishome. Whisky was the probale cause of the muss, but the de- tails are not knewn, as no examination was entered'upon. Justice Drary will investigate the affair when the witnesses are obtained. ————s TEMPERANCE MxeTING.—Last evening an interesting public temperance meeting was held in the Union League building, under the auspices of the Good Samaritan Division, No. 1, which was largely attended by delegations from the various divisions, among whom were many soldiers, lady visitors of the divisions, and others.

Gray, however, proved to be a desperate character, so much so that they had to handcuff, big-iron and gag him. This morning they were brought out before Justice Boswell who fined Finegan $2. he having made no resistance, and imposed a small fine on Gray, who commenced to swear considerably, and the Justice very properly increased it to $5 94.

Ws A report comes by way of New Orleans that three rebel regiments at Galveston had mutinied and turned the guns of the fort upon the city. The cause of this outbreak was the refusal of the commanding officer to issue floor to the men, when there appeared to be abun- dance in the hands of the commissaries, and when the officers drew regular rations. Gen. Magruder made a flowery speech and bacon and flour were served out to the men, but as many of them were Texas Unionists, who had been conscripted, the mutinous spirit was only checked for a time.
