S At the end of the trace, Col. Warner,‘#f my staff, who bad the general supervision of the business, received from Major Olan, of Gen. Hood's staff, the following letter : © RovuGH AND REaDy, Sept. 21, 1964. “COLONEL : Oar official communications are abouttoclose.

From the Front at Petersburg—Picket Shooting still kept up—Effect of Early’s Defeat—The Enemy very mnch Discour- aged—The Evacuation of Petersburg An- ticipated — Suffering of the People in Richmond. [Correspondence of the Associated Press.} HYeADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoToMAc, Sept. 26, i564—Several casualties occurred to- day from picket firing, in front of the 3d divi- sion of the 2d corps. A sergeant of the 40th New York was shot throngh the head, the ball entering the red diamond on his hat. He died almost instantly. Private Farnsworth was aleo killed, by being shot in the eye while looking over the works at some shelling going on pear by. This practice of continual sharp- shooting between the pickets should be dis- countenanced by every commander on both sides, as it causes the loss of many & brave man’s life, without the slightest advantage to either party. A deserter, who came in on Thursday even- ing, says the rebel army are very much dis- couraged on account of Early’s defeat in the Valley, and he thinks that, before long, Lee weave to evacuate Petersburg and Rich- mond. The people of Richmond and vicinity are suffering terribly for the necessaries of life, and particularly for firewood, the cost of which places it almost beyond the reach of the mass of the community. Richmond papers contain very little news. They admita deteatin the Valley, and give their loss at twenty-five hundred, about tive hundred of which were prisoners, Rhodes’s division lost a thousand men. They state our loss at from six to eight thousand. Generals Rhodes and Godwin were killed, and General Fitz Lee and Colonel Patton ‘wounned. General Yerk lost an arm. General Early was entrenched at Fisher’s Hill, 22 miles south of Winchester. Spr. 24, 6 a.m.—Quite a cannonading was heard early this morning on the center, which continued about half an hour. Allis quiet now. W. D. MoGrxcor. FROM KANSAS, Capture of a Union Train—Large Force of Rebels Moving North—Reperted Capture of Fort Gibson.

LATER FROM EUROPE. Political News Unimportant—Decline in the Rebel Loan. Fatuer Point, Sept., 24._The North Ameri- ca passed Father Point to-day, with Liverpool dates of the 12th. Her news is unimportant. The rebel loan declined 3 per cent. in London, on recepoion of American advices per the Asia. Vonsols closed in London on the 12th an 88a 88% for money. ‘he London and local journals were discuss- ing the Asia’s news, which seemed to furnish the sole topic of interest on Liverpool’ Change, but seemed to have little effect, either good or bad on business. The Times says:—Never since the war be- gan has there been such a display of vigor and en on both ‘sides. Battle succeeds battle with frightfal rapidity.

LOCAL NEWS. i MzETIKC OF THR COLORED PROPLE OF THE FovurtH Wagp.—In pursaance of a published call the colored residents of the Fourth Ward assembled Friday nignt at Galbraith Chapel, on L street,be+ween 4th and 5th,for the purpose of devising means to assist in filling the quot? of the ward in thé impending draft. The meet- ing was & very spirited one, and the little edi- fice was crowded to its utmost capacity, near- ly one haliof the assemblage being composed oltfemales. ‘The choir attached to the church, under the leadership ot Joseph Ambush, per- formed some ex¢éelient mesic during the eve- ning. Before tae meeting was called to order the choir sag “My Country ’tisof Thee,” and tpon its conclution Mr. Wm. Slade announced the object of “bs meeting, and nominated Mr. A. Freeman for the chairmanship, who de- clined the honor, and in turn nominated Mr. Slade who was duly electec. Archibald Lewis was elected secretary Mr. Stade, op taking the chair, urged all to come forward and contribute, and said this meeting was only a forerunner of what they intended to have on Saturday night. He wanted to show the whites that the colored people were deeply mterested, because there was to be no discrimination in the draft be- tween the tworaces. The colored people were willing at any moment their white frienas called Gpov them to deanything in theirpower for the welfare of the country and the city. It became the colored people as men and women to show their benevolence in the matter. The Choir then sang, with fine effect, “Our Native Land.” Mr. Slade started the contributions by plank- ing down 5, and remarking that the draft did not interfere with him, as he was an old, «“ played out” man, but he felt interested im the matter. Mr. Alfred Giger said he had lived in the Fourth Ward for thirty-two years, and it was the first time the colored people had been called upon to take action in anything cf the Rind; and as there had been such a reection between the two races, he thought all the colored peo- ple ougnt to contribute liberally. The choir sang another anthem, and while doing so mtny of the females came forward and laid contributions upon the secretary's table. Mr. J. W. Freeman moved the appointment of @ committee to collect funds in different parts of the ward. Mr. Freeman suggested that some one be se- lected to wait upon the ladies for tyeir contri- butions, as they were too bashful to come for- ward. The chair said he would appoint Mr. Free- man to perform that duty, as he was a ladies” man. Mr. Freeman said he would do it, as he did not want the draft to take him away from his wife. (Laughter.] nia Gar Native Land” was then sung by the choir. Mr. Blakeslee (white) urged upon the col- ored men to enlist themeelves, and said that the three years ihey would spend in the military see ona be the best they had ever passed through. Mr. Frank Stitt (white) moved that are- eruiting office be opened on the spot. This caused & young man to start towards the door, when Mr. Blakeslee re- marked ‘‘that that young man (pointing to the retreaating figure) better enlist, and better his condition.” This remark of Mr. Blakeslee’s drew forth @ general titter from the female portion of the audience. Tne Chair inquired of the Rey. Mr. Bow- land if bis ch could be obtained for Mon- day night, in which to hold a meeting. ‘Mr, B. replied in the affirmative. Some one remarked that Fred. Douglas was going to lecture on Monday. Mr. Freeman thought it of more importance to get clear of the draft than tohear Mr. Doug- lass; he hoped this business would be attended to, It was decided to meet on Saturday. Mr. J.C. Waters, of Baltimore, here made a speech, which drew considerable money. The Chairman said the colored people of the Seventh Ward had raised nearly 2600. He thought the Fourth Ward ought, at least, to do as much Mr. Wm. Page had collected from the seryants of the National Hotel $80, and had the promise of $25 more. He was a to place Mr. P. on the collecting com- mittee. The Chair then announced the receipts of the evening to be #115.50 in cush, independent of the subscriptions, which had not been counted: Mr. Archibald Lewis was then elected treasurer, and the Chair appointed all present & committee to ascertain who had enlisted and who bad furnished substitutes since the last call of the President for troops, in order that the ward might get credit for what they had furnished. ee AFFAIRS IN GEORGETOWN—Fi; ¢.—Abont 12 o’clock Friday night, a fire broke cut in a frame dwelling belonging to Mrs. Johanna Rice, on 2a street, near the College gate, and spread to the Swelling of Mrs. M.
