Capt. Collinge, having held a@ consuitation with his officers, determined to sink the Florida in port. Accordingly, at aboui 3 o’clock the cables were slipped, and the Wachusett steered for the Florida, hitting her on the quarter without doing great injury. Capt. Collins now called out ta those on board the pirate to surrender or he would sink her, This demand was replied to by the first lieutenant that, ‘under the cir- cumstances, he surrendered.” A hawser was now made fast, the chain | slipped, and the Florida towed to sea. Imthe melee several pistol shots were fired, and ac- cidentally two guns from the Wachusett. Capt. Morris and halt the Fierida’serew were ashore on liberty. No lives were lost. The Florida was taken completely by surprise, sev- enty of her men, it was known, being on shore, and the others, just returned from liberty, were asleep and half intoxicated.

Being loudly called for, the President appeared at a window and said: Friends and Fellow-citizens: Even before { had been informed by you that this compliment was paid me by loyal citizens of Pennsylvania friendly to me, I had inferred that you were of that portion of my countrymen who think that the best interests of the nation are to be sub- served by the support of the present Adminis- tration. I do not pretend to say that you who think so embrace all the patriotism and loyalty of the country, but I do believe, and, I trust, without personal interes!, that the welfare of the country does require that such support and indorsement he given. I earnestly believe that the consequences of this day’s work (if it be as you assure, and as now seems probable) will be to the lasting ad- vantage, if not to the very salvation of the country. I cannot at thishour say what has been the resuit of the election. Bui whatever it may be, I have no desire to modify this opin- ion, that all who have labored to-day in behalf of the Union organization. have wrought fer the best interests of their country and the world, not only for the present but for all fu- ture ages. 1 am thankfni to God for this approval of the people; but, while deeply gratified for this mark of their confidence in me, if I know my heart, my gratitude is free from any taint of personal triumph. Ido notimpugn the mo- tives of any one be ati! tome. Itis nopleas- ure to me to triumph over any one. But I give taanks to the Almighty for this evidence of the people’s resolution tostand by free government and the rights of humanity. es To ng Parp.—It will be recollected that at the first batue of Bull Run a number of car- riages, hacks, &c.,on the ground were taken possession of by the military, (the occupants who had gone out to see the fight being com- pelled to walk in,) to bring in the wounded, and while in the service of the Government some of them were damaged or lost. The owners, numbering about 50, have had their claims allowed and are about receivmg the amounts due them at the Treasury Depart- ment. We understand that the Government, in the settlement of these claims, have allowed $6 per day ior back, horses and driver—the trip ocen-* pying three days. Some of the hack owners interested say that they will not receive this money, but will appeal to Congress at the next session, alleging that their teams were se badly used up by the trip that they had to lay by for several days. Among these claims are also those of parties who had their carriages pressed in service at the second battle of Bull Ran. ———— RESULT of THE ReLIGIOUS REVIVAL IN GEORGETOWN THUS ¥AR.—Sunday was the regular Sabbath for communion at the Metho- dist Protestant Church, Congress street, arid, as usual, opportunity was offered for persons to unite with the chareh. Twenty-two - sons who protessed conversion were admitted on probation, and two from other churches were received by certificate. making a total of twenty-four received intomembership. A. those who were converted, some will join churches of other denominations, and others who were not present Sunday will unite at the next communion. Rev. Mr. Bowers is still too feeble to take an active part in meetings, but the meetings will bé continued. Rev. Dr. Ball preached the sermon before the communion Sunday morning, and at night Rey. Mr. Cur- tis, of Columbian College, preached; after which, six penitents presented themselves at the altar for prayer and instruction. ee nae SUSPICION OF Larcuny.—Yesterday, officer Crook, ot the Fourth Ward, arrested John Fisher on suspicion of grand larceny. Sus- picion was based upon his offering about 25 pounds ot horse-shoe nails fur sale at 30 cents ess than wholesale prices. Upon the evidence Fisher was sent to jail for court by Justice Giberson. Officer Crook took a search warrant and searched his residence, No. 122 F street, and found a lot of coats, pants, and vests, and carpenter's tools, all new; a quantity of similar articles which had been used, a section of gutta percha hose, and other articles. These articles are all at the Fourth Ward station, to be iden- tified and turned over to the Property Clerk. eS Benerit yor Curery Briie.—Charming, graceful, piquant, musical Cherry Belle, whose name is fit synonym of her attractiveness, is to have a complimentary benefit at Canterbury on Friday next, which will attract all her host of admirers, and these will form # host in themselves. She will appear in her great part vf the French Spy, and a fine general bill will be presented on the interesting occasion. We advise all who can to be on fand on Friday, and see and hear this bewitching acress and songstres a poe EF Ee oa, How THE SOLDIERS GO.—Kditor Star: The vote of Co. «K,” 15th Pennsylvania volun- teers, for President, is as follows : Lincoln and Johneon, sixty-five, (65,) Mc- lellan and Pendleton, none, (0.) I wish this published in your paper as I see it wrongly stated that there was one McClellan vote cast in our ranks. At the Clitfburn Barracks, the voting of the Peonsylvania soldiers resulted in 44 for Lin coin and 7 tor McClellan. Sse EXTENDING RAPIDLY.—The workmen em- ployed in extending the water matu.on 9:h street west, inthe Third Ward, are working rapidly, in view of the close of the season being so near at hand. The trench: is opened as far north as O street, and the pipes are at the trench ready to be laid. The advantage of the Potomac water in case of fire or for wash- ing, is duly estimated, but the residents upon the Northern ridge will cling to the excellent water of the pumps for drinking. They re- quire noice in the sammer season. a Hoe Cars Bustep Ur.—This morning the early train from Tan into two cars which had become detached nov 5- BLN, occu of the, this m until the p: Sorkees.—Marini’s next soiree night next, and will be one rs of the sortof the year. kemember the place, Marini’s Dancing Arademy, Tereperance Hail, E street, between oth and. : = Fourn Orgx.—The Cigar iene ro Henry ~was found open at-0 minutes past iz ieee . pawrenan Simonds and W atts, of the Second Ward, took charge of the store tor came this morning.

Notwith standing the rain and t he very un- iage (No. 66) and and Annie pleasant condition of the streets, there is con- siderable activity and cheerfulness noticeable in the town. Batit is not the result of an important increase of business transaction. all results from the news received of the elec- tion of Lincoln and Johnson. The friends of the Union are very much elated, And rain and mud does not prevent them from passing toand tro exchanging cengratulations. The town last night was remarkably quiet. The police did not report a single case of disorderly conduct, and the on}y arrest during the day was of a litle bey for a trifling offense, who was dis- missed.

Unfortunately for him, a member of the Signal Corps was ta- king observation from the post above George- town, on the Tennallytown road, and, seeing through his telescope the o) sent notice to Provost rations of the man, arsbal Littler. A sqvad of men were sent to the river, who picked up the would-be deserter and lodged him in Forrest Hall, where he can reflect on uman calculations The the uncertaint, operations of ot @ Signal Corps are very rapid, and their instruments of the very best descrip- tion. The operators converse by their signals between posts as rapidly as police telegraph operatcrs. Against the telegraph and Signal Corps civil and military offenders have but small chance of escape. CLosep Up.—A man named Berkley, and his bar- keeper, were arrested yesterday r selling quer to soldiers, at their ranche, near the Chain Bridge. Their ranche was closed, their liquors confiscated, and themselves confined ip. Forrest Hall to await a trial. Phis is one of five or six cribs closed by order of Major Littler, within a few days, for the same offense. CaNal.—There are only three arrivals to- day—tbhe J. W.
