THE EVENING STAR. WwW. D. WALLACH, Editor was G@TON CITY: FRIDAY) SEPTEMBER 16, 1564. "R> READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. BEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER, FROM CITY POINT. Another batch of seventy-eight rebel de- serters arrived here this morning from City Point, on board of the steamer Vanderbilt. ‘They represent Florida, Georgia, North Caro- lina, Tennessee, and Virginia regiments. They say that the rebel officers have become very vigilant of late owing to the numerous Geeertions of their men, who experience great difficulty in getting away, and many of them Have been shot while endeayoring to make their escape to our lines opportunity afforded those who wish to desert is when in the skirmish line, or when on vi- dette duty, these deserters cay. The rebel army is being rapidly filled up ‘with conscripts, and large droves of old men and boys are brought into the camps nearly every day. Many of them will not fight, which factis known to the officers, who keep theron strictly guarded to prevent their deserting. There were four brothers among the number brought here this morning. They belonged to a Virginia regiment, and all four of them de- serted at the same time. All of these deserters took the oath at City | Point, before being brought to this city, bat ol. Ingraham this morning fornished the , majority of them with transportation North. There is nothing specially new before Peters- burg, but it is believed that the present quiet will not be of long duration. Frvanctat.—The New York Commercial ad- vertiser of Yesterday evening says: The stock market was active this morning, and prices were generally slightly better. The “bears” are operating cantiously to cover their shorts, and the bulls appear to week to turm the movement to their advantage. The general tone of the market is more settled, and operators look for a steady, moderate move- ment in stocks for the next few weeks. Governments continue quiet, but firm. The new sixes of "Sl are coming upon the market more freely and maintain their A ieee steadily at106%. It is estimated that already nearly one-half the bonds have passed into the hands of the subscribers The Evening Post says: The loan market is less active, and borrow- ers on good securities are easily supplied at 7 percent. The symptoms of approaching ease are more numerous. The stock market is active with an upward tendency. The bear influence seems for the present to have nearly exhausted its force. Governments are advancing, State stocks steady, bank shares quiet, mining shares dull, railroad bonds firm and railroad shares active— the western; dividend paying shares being mostin demand.

HEAPQUARTERS, Sept. 11.—A reconnoisance was made yesterday by cavalry, and the2d division of the 6th corps, under General Getty, | across Opequan Creek, toascertain thestrength | and whereabouts of the enemy. General Wilson, with Mackintosh’s brigade | of the 3d division of cavalry, {from the extreme | left, passed up the pike from Berryville ‘o with- in a mile of Winchester. Averill’s cavalry came abe the enemy’s picket-line from the Martinsburg pike, and Merritt's division from the Winchester and Summit Point Road. Tnese forces, combined with Getty’s appearance in their front, surprised and eharged nearly the whole rebel pickets and outposts, and succeed- ed in capturing some two hundred of the ene- my. and returning with but trifling loss on our part. Wiison’s division captured most of the prison- ers, being all of the Sth South Carolina, except two companies of, Kershaw’s brigade. Poor Kershew! This is thefourth time hehas been beaten by our cavalry, and General Lee only a short time since reduced his command from a division toa brigade because he suffered our cavalry to defeat him. The 3d New Jersey cavalry, under Major Robeson, and the 2d Ohio, are said to have behaved splendidly in this charge, having had the eaxemes and accomplished moft of the work. When Captain Andrews, of Wilson’s staff, asked Colonel Hannegan whether his command | was mounted or not, the Colonel answered that it was the 8th South Carolina intantry. Then Captain Andrews thought it best to get them to the rear as soon as possible, and the prison- ers were double quicked over the creek. On the right where Colonel Lowell's brigade charged, the 2d Massachusetts captured a few prigorers. | ‘The infantry were simply sent to support the | caviary incase of attack bytheenemy. It was bot required to participate in the charge, and | having learned the position and something of | the force of the enemy, the whole expedition | returned to camp. | 7S —THERE WILL BE A MEETING OF THE | UF Bihisrd Rooo: keepers of the city of Wash- iugton at Lorch’s Billiard Saloon, corner of 8th B streets. at 5 u FRIDAY, it* ‘A GENERAL MEETING OF THE CLOTH- | ing merchants of Washington will be he | THIS (Friday) EVENING. st 8 o'clock, at t! iderman’s chamber, City Hall, Punctual attend- | ance requested, :.

McClellan should express hin f in fa- vor of an immediate cessation of hostilities and a convention of all the States, hundreds of thousands of peace men will stay away from iRe polis on the Sth of November. | From the New York Tribane.] A meeting of about fifty Peace Democrats | was held on Saturaay evening at the St. Nich- olas Hotel, to take action upon Gen. McUlel- lan’s letter, and to consult upon the best raeans of organizing a Peace party, and of selecting a Peace candidate for the Presidency. The meet- ing was called to erder by Mr. allaly, the editor of the Metropolitan Record, who was then chosen President. Among the gentlemen present were Messrs. Orton of the Day Book, McMasters of the Freeman’s Journal, Ben. Wood of the Daily News, Singleton and Green of Illinois, George K. Shiel of Oregon, S. T. Suit of New York, Chauncey Barr, W.T. Smito, Anderson and others. All the members present seemed to be moved by the bitterest feelings against Gen. Mc@lellan, denouncing him as haying broken his pledgeto the Democratic party, thereby compromising its success in the ensning election. Messrs. Shell, Singleton, and Chauncey Barr, were among the prominent speakers of the evening, and S. T. Suit ot New York, presented the fol- Jowing resolution as the sense ot all those pres- ent: Resolved, That the call be addressed to the Jeffersonian Democrats to meet at Vincinnati, Ohio, in the course of the present month for the purpose of SE pointing & candiate representing that branch of the Democratic party which the letter of Gen’1 McOlellan completely ignores. The resolution was unanimously adopted. The meeting then adjourned to next week, when. other distinguished members of the party are expected to be present. mong the candidates named for the Presi- dency, the names which seemed to be received with the greatest favor were those of Messrs. O'Connor of this city and long of Ohio. TELEGRAPHIO NEWS. FROM GRANT'S ARMY. Heavy Firing on Wednesday.

Szeconp Warp McOLELLan Civs.—Pur- stant to adjournment, the Second Ward Me- Ciellan Club met at Germania Hall. and atter waiting half an hour for an audience, the President, J. F. Haliday, Esq., called the meet- ing to order, there being ten persons present. ‘he secretary read the constitution as adopted at the previous meeting. and the mem- bers were called upon to sign. The following signed the corstitation: J. F. Haliday, Jno. D. Olark, Alexander Rutherford, W. J. Miller, GR. Adams, J. E. Miller, W. H. Towies, J. B Scott, Urias Harst. Mr. V. Blanchard en- tered the room and was called upon to siga. Mr. B. approached the table aud the secretary rend the constitution tohim. Mr. B. remarked that be would eizn, but he wanted it distinctly Understood that he did not join it as a Bemo- cratic Association. Mr. Clark.—Oertainiy ! Gown the dynasty. Mr. Blanchard signed. Meeers Geo. Jillard and Joseph Fowler were proposed and elected to membership. Mr, Haliday, from the committee on adver- tising, reported that be bad ascertained tl they could bave a standing adverlisem=an! in the Star and Intelligencer which he thought reasonable. Mr Adams thought the gain by advertising would no! pay the expense. The membors of tbe clnb know the time and place of meeting, and if their interest would not bring them out, advertising ceriainly will not. He wonld pa- tronize those p bat the expense is too Deavy for the club at present. Mr. Clarke declared bimseif in frvor of ju- Sicionk na yertiong, and sugersted that an ad~ vertisement for the Constutonal Union Star, Trmea, 204 Inteltigencer, be prepared for the Seturdey night lon, and let the ques- tion of & etanding advertisement lis over. Mr, Betherierd thoaght ths Onion ead iar Auything to pat would be enongh for the purpose, aud would eyem be willing to leave eff the Star for the sake of economy. Mr. Clark moved that the president and seo- retary be authorized to prepare an adyartise- ment for the papers he had named. Mr. Miller favored economy, but was in fa- vor of advertising in the /ntelligencer. Mr. Ratherford was in favor of acknowl- edging the Intelligencer, for the part they had taken in behalf of McClellan. Mr. Clark was opposed to doing anything that might look like bribery, and the argument advanced by Mr. Rutherford would look like paying the Intelligencer for taking sides with them < Mr. Haliday hoped that the Intelligencer would not be ignored. The leaders of that pa- per would have more influence abroad than ali the articles in the Constitutional Union. The motion as amended was adopted. Mr. Adams moved that the treasurer be au- thorized to pay to the secretary an amount that had been advanced by him. A young man entered the room with a box of ' McClellan badges for sale to the club. The design was a white metal spread eagle, hold- ing in its talons a miniature flag, from which ‘was suspended a miniature likeness of Gen. McClellan, which was purchased readily by the members present. Sa TuE DRAvTIN THE DistTRicT.—Capt.

The largest deficiency existing in is in the First and Fourth. The Second, and Seventh Wards have materially reduced their quotas by substitutes and volunte: Although the draft is to take places. Mon- day, it should not retard the citizens of the Jif- ferent wards from exerting every meags in their power to fill the quotas. for even after the draft takes place and the men have reported for duty, those belonging to such wards 4s fill their quotas by volunteers will be released. No time is to be lost, however, and the men are to be had if the money is forthcoming. PISO More Rear Estate.—Jas. C. McGuire & Co. sold, last evening : Lot 7, Square 369, to T.
