The captain reports having picked up, when Hifty miles northeast of Hatteras, N. C., an abandoned schooner, named the Ringgold, hailing from Dennis, Mass., with all her satis , gone, and two feet of water in the hold. The Saxcn brings important information from the fiag-of-truce fleet off Port Royal, 5. | ©. Col. Mulford had nearly completed the arrangements necessary for the exchange of tbe prisoners, and the whole fleet was expect- ing to return North in a few days. General Burnside arrived here this morning on the mail boat Dictator, and proceeded im- mediately to the front. —______+<+2-— ANOTHER Bic TUMBLE IN GOLD.—Gold fell to 218 m Wall street to-day.

THE Wovnpvina or Gen. Cany.—The fol- lowing extract from a private letter gives the particulars of the wounding ot Gen. Canby on the White river “GUNBOAT CRICKET, Thirty-five Miles up White River, Nov. 6, 1361.—Gen. Uanby, Gen. Davidson and several staff officers came to the White river a few days ago. Gen. Canby being on a journey to Little Rock to look after affairs there. His purpose has been th.,arted, how- ever, by the guerrillas. At an early hour this morning they fired upon us from the banks of the river, wounding the General seriously, bat | itis believed not dangerously. The shot took effect in the left leg, near the thigh. The Gen- €ral and myself were at the time standing on | the hurricane deck. I helped him down stairs and called the surgeon atonce. The wound is €n ugly one, And was made by 4 rified musket ball, passing clear through the upper part of his leg. There is every reason to balieve—at Jeast it is hoped—thatthe injury will rot prove as bad as wss =pprehended at first. @ is | doing quite nicely, and with good care we think that he may before long be able to resume | his duties. He and his party are now en their way to New Orleans. This river is so narrow thst guerrillas, if they chose, might obstruct its navigation entirely. In many places it is not more than a hundred yards wide. The party that fired upon us was not twenty-five | yarde distant, anc the wonder is that they did not kill both ot us. We returned the compli- ment with grape and shrapnel, but cannot tell with what success.” MILITARY ARRESTS IN Boston.—Captain Landen's company ot 100 days’ men, while enroute through Boston to Readsville to be mustered out of service, were halted, and ail the commissioned and non-commissioned of- ficers arrested, charged, it is said, with re- | ceiving bribes of soldiers to allow them to de- sert, while doingguard duty at Camp Brad- | ford, near Baltimore, Md., which is a depot for crafted men and substitutes from Mary- | dand and Delaware. Later in the day, after | they bad been passed over to Major Ciark, all of them, except Captain Landen, Lientenant | Thayer, and acorporal, were released, being | paroled as witnesses. The three former are now on their way to Baltimore to be trisd by & court martial. | a We «a cquainted with a ‘monster in | human form” who says thatthe only time a woman does not exaggerate is when she’s talik- ing of her own age. &7 11 you wish to offeryour hand toa lady, choose your opportunity.

Butler left here at 9 o'clock last night in his dispatch boat for Fortress Monros to resume command of the army of the James, which bas been under command ofGen Terry during Gen. B.’s abeence. The General was accompanied by his staff officers. ABRIVAL OF A LARGE GANG OF BO UNTY JUMPERS, Yesterday, a detachment of the 15th Ken- | tucky mounted infantry, under the command of Lieut. Calvin S. Vaughn, arrived here, having in charge seyenty-one bounty- jumpers and outlaws, who were heavily ironed. These men are composed principally of foreigners who joined our army for the bounty, but on being sent to the front, took the first epportu- nity to desert and went over to theenemy. At Richmond, these fellows finding times rather hard, and therebe] authorities being anxious to getrid of them, furnished them with trans- portation to such points in the Confederacy as they desired, where shortly afterwards they joined guerrilla bands composed of criminals of every hue, for the purpose of committing depredations upon friend and foe. The coun- try getting rather hot for them, they sought to | play the role of rebel deserters, and make their way to Lexington, Ky., but before reaching there, however, they, together with some four- teen hundred others, were captured by our troops. These prisoners, who arrived here last night, are but the first instalment of the large number captured by our forces. While on the way to this city, and when near New Creek, on tne Baltimore and Vhio rail- Toad, six of the prisoners leaped from the train while it was going at great speed The train stopped at the next station, and the officer in charge communicated with the commander of the post, informing him of whathad happened, when a guard was sent on the back track, who discovered one man dead. As the other five had jumped off some distance farther back, the result of the search for them was not known, as the train moved on before the guard re- turned. Col. Ingraham last night committed the pris- oners to Forrest Hall, to await trial by court martial, the witnesses (seven in number,) in their cases, having reached here already. ESCAPE OF PETERSON, THE REBEL 8PY AND MAIL-CARRIER, Geo. Peterson, who was tracked from Can- ada to Alexandria, Va., by detectives, and ar- rested there on the 1ith irstant asa rebel spy aud mail-carrier, made his escape from the Old Capitol prison last night, under the tol- Jowing circumstances :—The sentinels on posts Nos. 12 and7 permitted Peterson, under some excuse which he offered, to go into a yard by a way and in violation of the rules of the prison. Petereon having disguised himself, and hav- ing succeeded in passing the sentinels on the posts abovenamed between 6 and 7 o'clock, made his way into the employees’ mess-room. Here be is supposed to have found an iron chisel, left in the room by the gas-fitters, with which he broke open the door of the mess-room, wich enabled him to cross the passage to the female department. In the pas- sage way he picked the lock and forced off the wooden braces, (which were deemed sufficient to prevent escape.) This enabled Peterson to enler the store room of the prison. When in this room he again succeeded in picking the lock and breaking the bolt of the door, by which means heentered the front office, (second room, first floor, in the southern portion of the building.) From this office Peterson made his ‘way into the street. P. terson ts a rather intelligent man, abont 21 of age; about 5 feet 74 inches high; hs about 130 or 135 pounds; genteel ad- Gress; cound white teeth, and has a peculiarly positive utterance in his conversation. SMUGGLING GOODS TO DIXIE. Tuesday night, a picket of the Ist Pennsyl- ~ania artillery, stationed atthe Great Falls, captured two men while attempting to smug- +je goods into Virginia. One of the men is named Thomas Riley and the other is repre- sented to be the notorious Lucky Davis, alias W. W. Hill, who has been engaged in the smuggling business for sometime. The goods Jound in the possession of the parties are in the hands ot Captain Fagan, who commands tie post at Great Falls, and the prisoners have Leen committed to the Old Capitol. : THE CREWS OF THE LOST BARGES SAVED, The propeller Andrew Harder has arrived here, and reports that the two barges, laden with railroad ties, which broke away from her during the gale of the 13th, were lost, laving sunk. The four menon board of the barges were saved by the Harder, and brought up to Alexandria. REBEL DESERTERS. Thirteen rebel deserters arrived here this morning from Bermuda Hundred, where they came into our lines and gave themselves u). ‘hey all took the oath, and Col. Ingraham fur- nished them with transportation North. PERSONAL.—The performance last night. by the Wallack-Davenport troupe, of the play of “Still Waters Run Deep,” was so admirable as to be @ matter of street talk to-day. Davenpor: as Captain Hawkesly, and Wallack as John Milimay, are not to be surpassed. Cannot they repeat the play while here !

LATEST SOUTHERN NEWS. important from the Southwest—W herea- bouts of Sherman and Hood—Expected ngagement with Gen. Thomas—Large Reiniorcemen® for the Yankees—Specu- lations on Gen-;.Sherman's Movements— Gen. Forrest's Victory in Tennessee. Files of Southern papers to the 14th instant have been received, from which we make the following extracts: From Hood's Army. {From the Richmond Examiner, Noy. 11.} The Southern papers have hes Rael of the movements of Hood'sarmy. The Montgomery Mail, of the 7th, has the following from a «Confederate Surgeon, just down from Griffin, and a scout just from the army ot Tennessee :” Sherman has returned to Atlanta with four corps, which, with the garrison left at that point, makes a total of five corps in and about the city. ‘Hood is at Tuscumbia, confronted by Thom- as, and that there are prospects of an engage- ment. Fresh levies have recently been sent to Mid- dle Tennessee, swelling the Yankee force to 40,000, which enables Sherman to leave Thom- as in charge. If these reports be true, we may expect an early advarce upon Augusta or Macon. There is a rumor of a fight between some of the Georgia State troops anda portion of Scho- field’s Corps, near Stone Mountain, on Wed- nerday last. It is also reported thata raid is en route for Athens. Gen. Forrest is stillon the Tennessee, with his batteries and bis «‘horse marines,” and we may expect at any time to hear of his guuboat operations. Via Telegraph.J] MosiLg, via Se~mMa, ALA. Nov. 11.—The Tribune has received a@ private letter from Tuscumbia, dated November 4, which says :— The weather has been suddenly cold. Large supplies of clothing are arriving, to the great gratification of the army. Our scouts report that fifteen thousand of the enemy had arrived at Decatur, evidently fol- lowing our forces. On the 2d we shelled them at that place. There were only three thousand, and those we could have captured easily, but that was not the programme. We captured forty prisoners, and killed and wounded three or four hundred Yankee cavalry. They are numerous on the other side, but they exhibitno Seaite to dispute the passage of the modern abicon. Sherman’s troops are scattered as follows: The Ist corps (Gen. Usternaus) is at Atlanta; fifteen thousand at Ohattanoogs; five thousand at Bridgeport, some at Stephenson, how many it is not ascertained. Gen. Hood has Prem quite unwell for three daye, but is now all right. Gen. Beauregard is here, but Gen. Hoodisin command of the army. Hoed and Sher {From the Richmond Exam‘ ay Mth.) Although no exc! was itted by the bange enemy on this side of the river, the picket at Petersburg appears to have had better luck, ace from Spann rormtctan na eee area ana cas summary of the New York journals, Sherman has burned Atlanta and marched for Onarles- ton! Sherman was lately reported by those papers to have abandoned the parsuit of Hood's raid into Tennessee and returned to Atlanta with four cerps of his army; the rest being lett to guard Chattanooga and his communica- tions with Nashville. Altogether it may be supposed that he had twenty thousand men witb him. If, with this force, he has cut himself loose from his communications and attempted to gain Charleston, tour hundred miles distang, living on a hostile country by the way, he has under- taken a most extraordinary affair. Itis a far cry to Lochow—bdnut it is a further cry to Charleston. There are circumstances which render this news very suspicions. Telegraphic communication with Sherman does not exist, and it would be difficnlt to obtain intelligence from Atlanta. It is also improbable that he should have announced such a design through the New York journals, even if he had deter- mined upon it. . This news 1s very like a big Yankee lie, in- vented to cover up the fact that Sherman has really burnt Atlanta for the purpose of con- centrating his whole force against Hcod. On the other hand there are considerations which give color tothe glory. To burn Atlanta and retreat would be a deadly blow to Yankee pride; yet Sherman must come away from that useless place. He cannot keep his army idle there while Hood marches into Tennessea. He may suppose that the forces under Thomas, with the additions sent to him from Atlanta, aresufficient to hold Hood in check; and that, all ef Hood’s army having been withdrawn from the South, he would find nothing to oppose him on the road to Charleston, or to ilmington, or to a junction with Grant, wherever it may be designed Balancing both considerations, we are still increduleus, but if it be true that Sherman is now attempting this prodigious desien, we May safely predict that his march will lead him to the Paradise of Fools. The War News Before Richmond. From the Richmond Examiner, Nov. 1i.} he lines of Richmond and of Petersburg have been peaceful during the last two days, but there is a rumor that some Yankee troops crossed the northern bank on Saturday night, and it is notimpossible that Grant intends an- other advance on this side while he repeats his old manceuvre on the left. Itis, however, im- probable that he will attemptan assanit on our magnificent continuous lines now. Hemay at- tempt to straighten his line, now running from Fort Harrison towards Signal Hill, so as to bring it down tothe river side parallel with our own defenses. Fort Harrison is only eight hundred yards from our works, but the point at which their line touches the river is miles away tothe south. When the canal is fin ished, and when his fleet can get over the ob- structions, the enemy may try this step. Victory of General Forrest in Tennes- see — He Destroys Gun-Boats, Trans- ports and Barges—Burning of Johnsons- ville. {From the Richmond Examiner, Noy. 11.] The Georgia and Alabama papers have the following dispatches, announcing a@ eplendid snecess by Forrest, which seems not to have been permitted to be telegraphed to the Rich- mond papere: OrposiTE JOHNSONSVILLE, Tenn., Nov 5, via Corinth, Nov. 7, 1861.—Major General For- rest, on the Ith instant, achieved another great victory. He placed a battery above Johnsonsville, moyed up his artillery from below, and caught at Johnsonsville three gunboats, two trans- ports and about twenty barges. He planted atteries at night, and opened with eight and atteran engagement of ten min- ~ the gunboats were set on fire and con- sumed. Tae batteries then opened on the transports avd barges, all of which were seton fire and des ‘royed. The engagement was terrible. Ths enemy opened with forty howitzers from their fort oud gunboats, bnt nota man quailed under the storm of shell. The cannoniers had their ram- mers shot in two, and their clothes and boots eho. off. Since last Sunday Gen. Forresthas captured and destroyed fourteen transports, four gun- boats, twenty barges, thirty-two pieces of ar- tillery, over twenty thousand tons of freight, and over three million dollars worth of stores. Oar loss has been only ten mer wounded. Jolnsonville is still burning. The immense amcunt of freight on shore, covering several es, will all be consumed, as it is now burn- »g. and the enemy cannot extinguish it, asour sutteries coramand the banks. M. C.

Kinsey, two justices of the peace, to show cause before the District Supreme Court, why they should not be removed from office. The first named charged with having on the 5th ot November, made a certificate that Sahag Calousd, and Sahag Hanemain, two natives of Egypt, had been residen ts of the United States for two years, and had declared their intention to become citizens, which are false and traudu- lent, and also, that on the 10th inst., one of the parties and W. C. Zantzinger. on whose oath the rule was issued,fcalled upon Miller for the private papers of the parties, (neither of whom are able toepeak English,) which he refused \ return unless they paid him twenty dollars. In the case of Justice Kinsey, George F. liuguely makes the affidavit, setting forth that boy was arrested for the larceny of a pistol und was taken before Justice Kinsey, who committed him to the guardhouse, but subse- quently dismissed him on account of his ten- cerage. The pistol was retained by Kinsey, who promised to return it to the colored man irom whom it was stolen, but when the latter &pplied for it he refused to give it up until he proved how he gotit. The colored man pro- posed to sell itand Mr. Reynolds bought it, de- ponent advancing the money and receiving an order on Mr. Kinsey tor the pistol. Mr. K still refused to give it up, alleging that he was going to buy it himself, and subsequently he said that he had lost it. The defense further charges that when he stated that he would ap- peal to the Mayor and Superintendent of Po- lice Mr. K. used very vulgar and profane lan- enage in regard to them. The rule charges Mr. K. with official mis- conduct, in retaining property alleged to nave been stolen, neglecting and refusing to deliver such property to the property clerk of the Me- tropolitan Police, and with using vulgar and indecent language in his office. This case comes up en Saturday nex'. = ge THE TRIAL oF HaMILTON EasTER & Uo., ERCHANTS Or BALTIMORE, Mp.—The trial cf Hamilton Easter & Oo. of Baltimore, charged with selling goods to be conveyed into tiie rebel lines, was resumed to-day at 12 o'clock, at the rooms of the Military Commis- sion, on F street, between {3th and /4th, Major Gen.
