te GENERAL S'CLELLAN IN NEW YORK. Brilliant Serenade at the Fifth Avenue Hetel, FOUR THOUSAND PEOPLE PRESENT. APPEARANCE AND SPEECH OF THE GENERAL, ~ GREAT OUTBURST OF ENTHUSIASM, Rey ken Kee ‘The aanouncement in the Heratp of yesterday morn. ing that General McClellan was in the city has created much excitement on the part of thousands to see the young and favorite General, The Fifth Avenue Hotel Las been crowded since yesterday morning with poople apxious to catch even a glance at the youthful hero; and ‘bad the weather not been so very disagreeable, many tore would have been present. There is no disguising the fact that General McClellan is immensely popular in this oity, and, would he consent to anything like a public eception, it would be beyond doubt as grand an affair as ever was witnessed in the city of New York. ‘The General intends, however, to keep as quiet as pos” alble, receiving only a few visitors. He called yesterday ‘pon General Soott, who also resides at the Fifth Avenue Hotel; and, although the interview was strictly private, Still enough was known to satisfy all that it was an agreeable one. The General rode out yesterday im company with General Marcy, attending vo business and calling on a few personal friends. He is accompanied by three members of his staff only—Colonel Wright, and Lieutenant Colonels udson and Radovitch. 1 is not known what length of time the General will remain in New York; but it is hoped on all sides that he wili cousent to break threugh his privacy so far as to perwit the many thousan: are desirous of seeing him the opportunity of grasping his hand. ‘The Goneral did not retura from his out door excursion until after two o’elock. It was suid by many that he had been house hunting, or looking at « house recently pur- chased by General Maroy; but this was mere hearsay. General McClolian dresses a3 a citizen, with the exception Of his fatigue cap; but bis face is so woll known, from the many photographs that have been taken, that no diffi- culty is had in recognizing him. Consequently he is saluted on every side. The Young Men's Democratic Onion Club deter- mined to notice the General’s arrival in New York in an appropriate manner, and tendered him a serenade, This ‘fact wus announced yes- terday, and in cousequenco by nine o'clock last evening, all the avenues of the Fifth Avenue Hotel where the General is stopping, were crowded to reple tion with persons anxious to witness the aifair ant see the General. Rumors were rife on every side that the Goneral was not in, and dia not desire to appear: but these were mere idle reports. As half-past ten o’cloc! Ppproached the crowd became dense, notwithstanding the rain and horrible condition of the streets. They cheered again and again for General MeClellan, and Groaned for everybody cise. They were enthusiastic Every man when he cheore? meant it, ond as the Music was heard approaching im the distance the cheers were repeated. Not ieas than four thousand People in front of the hotel were welcoming the General to New York, and a moro good humored crowd was seldom before witueesed in Gotham. In advance of the band was a small field piece ; it took position directly in frort of the hotel, and at the first dis- ebange startled every one, for no such salutation was ex” Pected. It was fired coutiuually until the band approach- @d and took ground directly opposite the baleony, when the cheering commencod with ronewed vigor and con tinued without cessation, There was nothing feigned with the crowd. All the noise they made was with a Dearty good will, coming from their hearts, and intended in honor of “Little Mac,” the late commander of the Army ot the Potomac, ‘The band did not arrive until aquarter to cloven o'clock ; but as soon as the shoon of its bright instruments was @eon in the distance, the delighted thousands sent up a tremendous shout of gladness. By this timo the wholé front of the hotel was as thick with poople as a hive with bees. The trees were rather too slippery, or the mal! boys who so distinguished themselves on former occasions would, undoubtedly, have bean on hand to practice their agile acrobatic” feats. The band, consisting of abeut twenty plecos, goon arrived. We soon saw the smiling face of Grafulla, , and knew at once that the best military band in the city had been solected to do honor tothe chief. The music was oxcellent. Waltzes, polkas, marches and pot pourrls were all played in fine time and with much effect: but, considering the heaviness of the atmosphere, the height of the hotel and tho thick crowds present, we think that early as many more pieces wore necessary to make the music powerful and effective; ‘The baloony of the hotel facing the park was reserved especially for the use of the General, his immediate rends and the inevitable and ubiquitous representa” {ves of the press. Tt was oleven o'clock when a gencral stir among the ladies in the great ball. and a crushing among reportors for front places, announced the jong expected fact that General MeClellan was com- ing. ‘The enthusiasin among the iinmense mass was now carried to the highest pitch. The great desire weemed to be to catch a glimpse of the form and features \ Of the hero of Antietam. Amid the music of the band and the occasional thunder of artillery arose the voices of the people in loud shoujs and buzzas for their favorite Geueral. ‘At length the crowd of Indies and gent!emen in the bel! broke ranks, to give way to the modest and unassuming soldier who wag passing botween them from the iuney chambers. It was now bard to say whethor the deep feeling of enthusiasm was more wide-spread insie of the ote! or outside of it, The oniy edvantage possesned by ‘the outaiders was the overwhelming disproportion in point of numbers. But to all appearances the sincerity of the poople tras equal on every side As soon ag tho General had succeeded in passing through the immense crowa of his frienda inside, he passed , Hhrough the large window opeuizg on the balcony, which St onco brought him fn sight of the masses of peopie col- Toctod bolow. The General stood just in the same place where the Prince of Wales stood come time ago, when @ groat popular ovation was offered him in this city, His pearance was the signal for an outburst of entwuriasm imply impossible to deecrive. Cheer nfter cheer arose ‘Yor McClellan, and, as he smiling!y bowed to the audience: these cheers were redoubled and repeated again avd gain. As soon a5 the excitement died away @t one part of the crowd it was taken up at the other, and thom it swelled agai nto one grand chorus of praise and enthusiasm, General ‘MeCielinn appeared deeply sensible of the kindness of the People; but calm, cool and smiling, he awaited the eessa Bion of the united outburst before addressing to the poo: ple the fow soldierly words he had to vay to them, ‘The General war accompanied by Mr. Luke F. Cozang.” President of the Young Men's Cuion Democratic aspocia tion, who endeavored for some momente to address the \wrowd, but he could not get any further than “Fellow Citizens,” when ringing cheers for MeClelian wontd ariee drown his voice completely ort hon some hind oF silence was restored, Mr. Cosane said that he hac fron he ge naa ro Auced to the people of Now York (he skiifui general, the Obcdient soldior and the Joyal citizen; but he wag there @hou before them, rendering all introduction op hie part nny General McClellan mow stands here to oom, a0 has always aoted, for himself and for bis (Loud applause. ) ) 2 now, with much pleasure, ‘esont to you the man wow you Have learned :0 love— Sorel George B.

INTERESTING FROM NASHVILLE, ere ‘Thoma: ton—Seccsh Women Sent South, dec. Nasuvitte, Tenn., Nov. 19, 1862. Generals Thomas and Schuyler Hamilton and Parson Brownlow have arrived here, the former to confer with Gener) Rosecrans. Fdward Cooper, having been exchanged for Judge Fos- ter, has arrived from Genera! Bragg’s headquarters at Tallahoma, Lieutenant J. Northup, of Gaston’s battery, has been dismissed from the service for misbehavior before the enemy. This is the first instance of the use of the au- thority lately delegated to General Rosecrans by the Sec- retary of War, A fing of truce conveyed « number of rebel women through our lines to-day. Skirmish on the Murfreesboro Road— Another Skirmish at Rural Hill—-The Main Body of the Rebels at Tailahoma, and it is Expected they will Make a Stand Tnere, & Nasavirze, Nov. 19, 1862. General Sil’s advance had a slight skirmish on Sunday moruing with rebel cavalry on the Murlreesboro road, seven miles from Nashville. Nobody was hurt. Yesterday General Wood's advance had onother skir- mizh at Rural Hill, lastiag two hours and a halt. Four dead rebels were lett on the feld, and four privates or the Thirteenth were captured. Morgan's cavalry dis mounted and fought as iufuntry, but escaped our flauking ps Twenty artillery shots were fired. Our foraging and scouting parties are scouring the country. Generals Bragg and Buckner spent Saturday night and Sunday at Murfreesboro. “It is definitely ascertained that Evagg, as reported, is iu command. ‘The main body of the rebels, it is believed, are at Tailahoma. It now begins to appear that they intend to stand at Tallahoma. It 1s seventy-cight miles tvom Nashville. We have informa” tion that thoy are receiving reinforcements rapidly, many of whom are raw conscripts, and it is reported that they are fortifying in the rear and near Tallnhoma. One divi- sion of their army ix posted at Murfrcesboro. Considerable rain has fallen within three days. Curm- berland river has swollen several feet. ‘The weather is again clear. Unless the rains in the mountains have been much heavier, the rise will not prove sufficient to reopen navigation About twenty ‘rebel ladies of ‘this vicinity, who visited Nashyitle for groceries and dry goods on passes from post commenders, and who were detained by the sudden revocation of all passes by Genoral Rosecrans, were sent South this morning under flag of truce, conducted by Captains Williams and Thurston, of General McCook’s staff. General Rosecrans had absolutely declined Lo grant passes; but the seductive appeal of the comely dames moved him to ship the sweet cargo to Dixie ina lump, conditioned that they remain outside our lines. Eate this evening we learn that the prettiest of the lot smuggled forty odd pairs of plantation broguus for her negroes under her petty skirts. THE WAR IN THE SOUTHWEST. Affairs at Holly Springs—Expedition to the Tennessee River—Incendlary Fires at Memphis, &c. . Camo, Noy, 20, 1862. Passengers Crown Holly Springs report the army at a stand still. Hospitals are being prepared, and large quantities of grain being collected. A depot for contrabands has been established at Grand Janction. An expedition left Trenton and Humboldt yesterday for a point on the Tennessee river, where it was reported a rebel force of seven knndred was crossing. It was theught that the whole of them would be captured. ‘The Marine Hospital at Paducab was burned on Menday night. Ail the patients eseaped. Mest of the furniture was saved, The building was worth $100,000. Great ‘consternation prevailed, owing to an impression that this was the herald of arebel attack. Donble pickets were placed around the town. A fire at Memphis on Saturday night aestroyed three manufacturing establishments sud six dwellings. Loss heavy. It was the work of an incendiary. Aletter from Coriuth says that Jobn Porter, of the ‘Twenty-first Ohio, and —— Williams, of the Twenty-third Ohio, bad arrived at that place from Atlanta, Ga. They belonged to a party of twenty-five men sent out by Gene- ral Mitchel last summer, and captured by the rebels. They make the following statement:—Captain Andrews, Geo. D. Wilson, Marion Ross, P. G. Spadock and Wm- Campbell, Second Ohio; John M. Scott, Twenty-first Ohio, and Samuel Slavere, Thirty-third Ohio, where tried at Khoxville, and bumg in Atlanta, June 18. The others re_ mained in confinement until twenty-two days since, when thoy broke jail; but as they scattered as soon as they got out of confinement, it is impossible to tel! what became of them. : Relief for the Despoiled Union People of Kentucky. Louisvitie, Nov. 19, 1862. Yhe Union raeu of Kentucky are greatly dissatisfied bocause the government does uot authorize a contribution to be levied upon wealthy seces#ioniste, to prevent the starvation of the loyal people of the mountains and bordor counties, who have been stripped of everything by the raids of Morgan, Bragg, Smith & Co.

The recent excitement iu regard to the defences of the harbor of Now York has induced the government to recur to the scheme of completing the celebrated Stevens’ battery. It is represented that it alene will be suflicient for the protection of that harbor, and its use in thia way will leave the iron<lads to sweep the coast and open blockaded ports. CAPTURE OF CONTRABAND GOODS AND PRISONERS. Last evening the gunboat Jacob Bell arrived witha large lot of contraband goods, consisting of beots and shoes, hats, dry goods, and about one thousand wool cards, and the following prisoners:—R. W.

The Union exiles who have been driven from portions of Virginia are growing impatient for ration of that State to federal contro}, in order that they may return to their deslated homesteads. A Unionist from 'Loudon county was treated rather roughly here lately, Two of his negroes rap away toJWashington, and, having suffered in various ways for voting against seces, gion and sustaining the Union cause, he came here to claim his servante, He was thrown into a guardhouss: and kept three days, after which he retursed home, glad to secure his own freedom and let the negroes go, THE BUGAR AND COTTON CROPS OF ILLINOIS, An interesting lotter was recelved to-day by Isaac New" ton, Commissioner of Agriculture, from Illinois, giving a statement of the immense quantity of sorghum ané sugar made in that State this season. Ilineis will not require amy importation this yoar of sugar and molasses on ae coual of the yield of the Chinese sugar cape, which in her- dordere thie season has been unpresedented. Oggerinegs io Dupes iy reting eoten Op pay ceeded boyond the expectations of the most sanguine, proving that we live on a soil capable, with careful culture, of feeding and clothing the world. England bas millions in her experiments in cotton raising in hor own colonies, and it isa source of profound congratulation that, in the very beighth of a war for the suppression of & gigantic rebellion, we should be able to prove, by agov erumental experiment, that cotton may be grown as wel at the North as the South.

Naval Intelligence. ‘Tak Kirrarixny’s Priae.—The cargo of the rebel prize schooner Krama arrived at Philadelphia on Wednes- day, having been captured by the United States gunboat Kittatihoy, Charles W. Lamson commanding. The offi. cial report relates that on September 27, at daylight, the sebooner was seen, and several boats were sent to tak® hor. She came from Velasco, Texas, cleared for Kingston, Jamaica, loaded with one hundred and twenty-one bales cotton. She was taken thirty miles from Velasco, longi- tude ninety-five degreos thirty-two minutes, latitude twenty-eight degrees thirty minutes. ‘The crew, num- bering eight, were taken on board the Kittatinny, except the captain, Wm. Baker; the supercargo, Jesse C, Wag. ner, and one seaman, W. #1. Baker, all of Texas, though the Bakers were formerly of Massachusetts, At eight P.M., E.E, Pendleton, acting master, was ordered to take charge of the prize, with a crew of four men and a master’s mate, and proceed to Key, Wot or New York, at his discretion, the yellow fever prevailing at the former place. On the 2d of October spoke the gunboat Albatross, which reported yellow fever on board. Ou the 16th, in the vicinity of the Tortugas, moderate heavy gales were experienced, and head winds during the passage. Ou the 16th, falling in with brig Harriet, of Portland, the captain farnished them with some provisions. On the 24th, being short of provisions again, shaped their course for Beanfort, N. €., but, head winds prevailing, could not double Cape Fear. On the 26th, however, at one o'clock P. M., they made the place; also, two gun- voais, one of which, the Genesee, came down and boarded them. The captain, informed of their situation, gave the order vo stand in and come to anchor near the United States gunboat Penobscot, and promised asatstance after he had spoken the vessel in sight. At eleven A. M. they came to anchor near the Genesee, and at cight A. M. the 26th fresh breezes sprang up from east southeast’ and finally tore out the pipes and night heads. The Genesee, however, supplied them with provisions, and, the gale increasing, they were taken in tow by the steamer Maratanza, During the night the steamer was obliged to stearn off shore, keeping them in tow. The tow line caught under the bowsprit, ripping up the same. ‘The vessel being completely immersed at the time, a bale of cotton was washed overboard, and the main and flying jibs washed away, On the 27th, being assisted by the Genesee, with anchor and carpenters’ tools, they bore up for Port Royal, and arrived on the 30th.
