The writers had journeyed over the greater part of the island, and report that it waa | beg rapidly devastated by both parties in turn, without any definite result. Spain, it is said, could and would put down the rising of the people; but the question was whether it would pay her to at- tempt to hold the country. The struggle is nota war of races, although it was alleged that the ra- dical abolitionists of the United States had seat the most inflammatory and ridiculous messages to the negro population, with a view of making it #0, The Spanish blockade of the coast was very strict, and traders from the United States are cautioned to have their papers in perfect order, The splen- did country seat of General Cazneau, a model for the island, was levelled to the ground. General Santana, who renewed the Spanish rule, was at San Pedro, in the pay of Queen Isabella, surround- ed by two thousand died and about es many more Indians who are dt to him. Our correspondent in Belize, Honduras, writing onthe 12th of October, states that the schooner Cora, from Brazos, had arrived, with one hundred and sixty-five bales of*cotton from the ‘rebel States. The merchants Of Belize had signed and presented an address to Doctor Sears, Commercial Agent of the United States in the colony, teatify- ing the respect in which they held him as an offi- cer, citizen and gentleman. They deemed this act necessary, in consequence of some reflections, by inuendo, as they imagined, on his character, contained in the letter of one of our corres- pondents, dated last August. In the Surrogate's Court yesterday, the ac- counts of the estates of Joseph Giraud (amount- ing to $148,000), Rosina Moran, James L. Johnson, Martha McGroarty and Caroline Downes were pet- tled and adjusted, and distribution of the assets made. The contest in the will of Rev. Dr. Berrien was still further adjourned to the 4th of Decem- ber, to allow time and opportunity for a compro- mise among the parties. Further testimony was tiken in the matter of Mrs. Susan Dayton's wills. Money was again active yesterday at 7 per cent. Gold was higher, but with little doing, and closed at 148. Ex- change was dull at 16214 a 163.

THE SITUATION. There is nothing later fromthe Army of the Po- tomac. Pertect quictude appears to reign, with the exception of the guerilla raids which disturb the outposts and the occasional reconnoissances which occupy the attention of our cavalry. From Charleston we have nothing later than the oews up to Sunday night, which we gave to our ceadora yesterday. ‘The news from East Tenneasee is stil! exciting, and shows that the rebels are making desultory attempts to maintain their positionat some points. A deapatch from Knoxville yoaterday reports that General Sanders, with his cavalry corps, overtook s rebel regiment at Mettey’s Ford, on the Little Tennessee river, on Thursday; but a vigorous tharge made by Colone! Adams drove them across the river. Between forty and fifty of them were frowned or killed, and forty wore captured. All their arms were lost. The prisoners reported that there are fourteen rebel brigades beyond the Ten- under Generals Cheatham, Vaughan and Stevenson. ‘The expedition of Goneral Buroside's army to { he eastern corner of the State of Tennessee ap- pears to bo completed, and the people are reported es exhibiting the most satisfactory signs of loy- alty, General Burnside, with his accustomed activity, is again on the march—in what direction will soon appear. We have further accounts, of a highly intercating character, of the late fight at Blue Spring», Tenn., furnished by our army cor- tespondent, columa. hesaro, Voreeat, which will be found in another There is nothing of importance reported from General Grant's army yesterday; but our corres pondent in Lookout valley furnishes us with further particulars of the sharp engagement near Wauhatchio, between General Geary’s command pod a brigade of the enemy, when the latter un- ertoo’. to surprise our forces at midnight. The bat- He wa. fought with desperate energy on both sides, but the rebela were defeated, and retired, leav- ‘ng their killed and wounded on the field. Among the rebel prisoners are officers and men belonging to several South Carolina regiments. Oar loss is about two hundred in killed and wounded. Among the former we regret to find the name of Captain Geary, som of the Commanding General, and a gallant young artillery officer. A complete list lative excitement, with heavy sales nere and to arrive, at gradually advancing prices. The advance in pork to- day was 12)¢¢. a 26c. on mess, and 4c. on lard. Po- troleum was decidedly more active and firm yester- day, with large sales at advanced rates, There wasa fair general business reported yesterday, trade having been stimulated by the advance in gold. The Missouri Didi colm and the Radi President Lincoln’s settlement of the Mis- souri-Kansas difficulty has excited the wrath of the radicals. The chapter of editorial articles which we publish to-day from a number of the leading ultra-abolition journals, East and West, will remove all doubts upon the subject with the political reader. The Rev. Henry Ward Beecher’s Independent declares that the President's letter to the Mis- souri delegation “is the scrawny fruit from the stock tbat yielded the golden apple to the Illinois Convention,” whatever that may be; that “in Missouri his policy bas been constantly shaped to the interests of the slave power,” and that he “takes sides with a suspected op- position who at all times have been willing to compromise with the rebellion.” The St. Louis Democrat charges the solution of this Missouri difficulty against the radicals to the pro- slavery influences of Edward Bates and Mont- gomery Blair in the Cabinet, and says that “three-fourths of the conservative party of Mis- souri is furnished by Jeff. Davis, and the other fourth by Abraham Lincoln.” But the Mis- souri organ of the German radicals—the Neue Zeit—takes the lead of all its abolition colabor- ers in fis declarations that they must try to have the popular branob of tho new Congress “organized against Lincoln and in favor of the government; against slavery and in favor of freedom;” that “the friends of freedom have nothing to expect from him;’* for, “if not their bittereat”he ia at least their most danger- ous enemy.” Thus the issue is made up The radicals will rule or ruin the administration, and will bave no half way compromise. They will give President Lincoln to understand that they, and not he, will determine the policy of his admin- istration, and that'for presuming to act upon his own judgment in the matter of this Missouri controversy he has committed an unpardonable offence. They flatly declare that they will teach him better manners, or send his adminis- tration into Coventry. He has interfered with their programme for the reconstruction of the Union; he has taken the opposite tack, and they will compel him to tack about or sink him. Their plan of operations will probably be— first, the election of a radical Speaker for the new Congrese; and, secondly, a Congressional caucus combination against those obnoxious conservative members of the Cabinet, Attorney General Bates, of Missouri, and Postmaster General Blair, of Maryland. With a little improvement upon his late Auburn speech, Mr. Seward may be spared. The laborious but fruitless efforts made last winter by the Congressional radical caucus to supplant him have certainly suggested a com- promise in his case, with any encouragement from Mr. Seward himself. But Blair and Bates are past all hopes of pardon, and we may ex- pect a dead set against them, provided the abo- lition cabal shall first secure a trusty radical as the Speaker of the House. The President of the Senate, Mr. Vice President Hamlin, it is \nderstood, is with the radical faction, and the Senate Itaelf; and they have but to secure the control of the House in order to gain the mas- of the casualties in the One Hundred and Thirty- Seventh Now York regiment will also be found in our Correspondence. We give an interesting account of the defences of Wilmington, N. C., on Cape Fear river, with a map showing the different points at which the rebels have erected fortifications, MISCELLANEOUS REWs. Mr. ©. Godfrey Gunther is in the field an: fidate for the Mayoralty, having formally ac- cepted the nomination of several democratic or- ganizations. Mr. Orison Blunt was last evening Dominated for Mayor by the Union General Com- mitteo, General Dix and General Sickles having Beclined to serve. tery over the execative branch of the govern- ment, and to dictate to Mr. Lincoln not only the composition of his Cabinet, but their policy for the restoration of the Union. Now, in view of this declaration of war from the radicals, what is the course which President Lincoln should pursue? The time has gone by for the conciliation of both radicals and conser- vatives. The time has come when he must take his position broadly and positively on the one side or the other. His own views and in- clinations are with the conservatives. His Mis- souri letter, of itself, ie satisfactory upon this point. Let President Iincoln, then, take up his administration. He bas the power to secure in Congress the election of ® conservative Speaker. He has the power, through bis annual message, to anticipate and deleat the schemes of the radicals, He has the | power, through a reconstruction of his Cabinet, | involving the removal of Messrs. Chase, Stan- ton and Wellos, to disarm (this demoralizing abolition faction of any furtbor capacity for mischief, for, in cutting loose from them, be will rally all the conservative elements of the country in an overwhelming party to bis sup- port. Hia action upon the Missouri question is a atep in the right direction. Let him follow it up. The country demands a vigorous and success- ful prosecution of the war in behalf of an carly and substantial peace. We have had enough of Stanton, Halleck and Welles to satisfy the country that under their guidance this great ob- ject cannot be achieved. We want a united and harmonious Cabinet; but while Mr. Chase, with his radical notions, as a member of the Cabinet, assumes to be the master-of the situa- tion and the succession, there can be no har- mony between him and hig conservative col- leagues. In a word, the duty now pial upon President Lincoln is the separation of bis administration and his:'war policy and peace policy ‘from the extreme abolition faction and their peculiar schemes. -In cutting loose from them he cannot begin too soon nor do the work too thoroughly. There need be no fear of abo- lition vengeance; for it will be utterly power- less against an administration sustained by the conservative masses and all the financial, com- mercial and industrial interests of the loyal States. The rejection of the abolition radioals— men and measures, root and branch—is the true policy of President Lincoln. The Public Debt FPinanct pects of the North and Soutn. The following is the latest statement of the public debt of the United States up to Septem- ber, 1863, with the rates of interest and the amount of interest thereupon. The figures are very clearly arranged, and tell their own story without any explanations:— Prow Fractional currency... 18,652, ‘Treasury notes past Que Suspended requis'ns,&c, 41,682,610. Average rate of interest om funded debt alone 6.06 per cent, In comparison with this statement we desire to place the public debt of Jeff. Davis’ bogus confederacy; and we find in the Columbia (8. C.) Carolinian the’ following table repre- senting the indebtedness of the rebel govern- ment up,to July, 1864:— Present debt, aa last r ee ‘Say will be required by y And by July 1, 1864. Total. Ia connection with these explicit Gnancial statements, there are a few facts which must be taken into consideration. Our debt is about twelve hundred millions of dollars. We have a population of twenty-eight millions of peo- ple, and this population {s constantly increased by immigration. The people have confidence in the government, and invest their money readily. Government bonds are at ten per cent premium. We trade with all the world, and receive from customs enough gold to pay the interest upon our debts. The heaviest expenditures of the war are about over. We have plenty of the best arms and ammunition, and our soldiers are comfortably clothed. When we bogin a new business we must spend a yroat deal upon the start. After that we have only to kvep up our stock, This ia precisely our position in this new business of war Besides this, we have all the industry, wealth and talent of our people as our reserve capital, and that is equal to any conceivable amount of gold ia hank Turn from this picture to that of the rebel finances. By next July the rebels will owe eighteen hundred millions of doliara. The popu lation of the seceded States is only about five millions. Their only capital is cotton, and they have very little of that. and cannot sall what they have. Their paper is worth only eight conts to the dollar in the confederacy Outside of the confederacy it is sold for waste paper or to curiosity hunters. The rebels themselves distrust it and exchange it for our greenbacks at a tremendons discount. They also refuse to invest in the rebel bonds or to sell their goods and pro- ducts for rebel money. They bave no commerce, except by blockade running, and that is such an injury to their cur rency that the government organs propose to stop it by special laws. Their army is without clothing, shoes and food. They mannfacture almost nothing. Starvation stares them in the face in their large cities. In spite of their natural and assumed bravado, they are re- luctantly compelled to acknowledge that they are financially as well as morally ruined. The letter of Commissary General Northrop, of the rebel army, which we published yesterday, shows thet in the matter of food they are tuined also. We ask any reasonable man, no matter how prejudiced, to calmly compare these facts and figures, and then doubt the ultimate success of the Union cause. And especially we recom- mend these financial statements to the attention of English sham neutrals and European sym- pathizers with rebellion. Tae Mexican Dervtation any Naro.eox.— As a sign ef the times, it may be noticed that the Emperor of the French, when be received the Mexican deputation, made in his address to them no mention of Prince Maximilian. What this means it is easy to conjecture. France will lay aside the Maximilian humbug and take Mexico herself, provided she can do so. Waat Tue Loxpow Journais Say.—The minis- terial journals of London assert that should the federals sustain any further losses it will be- come the duty of neutrals to recognize the South.

Remarkable occurrences are not uncommon in this world, and especially not im New York | city, and, of all the curious events that succeed | a dspite.ot tho fatigue of the previous evening, when one auother go rapidly im this metropolis, alto- gether the most noteworthy are the balls thut we give when we desire to do honor to visitors, or to express our good will or ood wishes to the people or potentates of other couatries, In the course of our progresa to greatness we have given many of these, Prominont in the list is the great “Boz ball,” which we were foolish enough to give to Dickena. Dickens gave us & re- ceipt in full in his “American Notes,” ia which be ridiculed our manners and hospitality in good round terms. We also gave a ball to the Prince of Wales, which was appreciated by the Prince, and by the Queen and Prince Aibert—all of whom felt gratoful for the kindly disposition manifested by us; but from the British govern- ment we bave received since then what we may regard as @ full settlemeat of that account, ia the shape of a ficet of pirates, built and man- ned in England, and now kept at ea to enrich their English. owners. by the plunder of our commerce: We gave'a ball to the Ambassa. dors from Japan, and, though a kind of Japaa- ese coppethead has endeavored to disturb the peaceful relations of his government with us by Griog into our ships, there is no reason to believe that our enthusiastic demonstration has had any other than a good effect with the real government of Japan. Finally we have given a ball to the officers of the Russian ficet. It was immense fn its way, and we have no doubt its effect with the Russians was all that it should be. Admiral Lisoveki and his captains, and lesser offi- cers, courteous and well bred gentlemen, all appreciated, it is to be hoped, our good inten- tions; and, if we have any right to expect any consideration in national matters as due for a complimentary ball, we may judge from our past intercourse with the government of Russia that we shall not be disappointed in those ex- pectations. But the fatality that attends upon all our grand balls attends us here; and, since the bail will probably be all right with the Russians, the difficulty had to be somewhere else. i was with the people. Many of the managers of this Dall were our most worthy citizens, They got it up—arranged all the business—but when the night came they did not take their families. Consequently the managerial arrangements, with the exception that too many tickets were issued, were all good; but the company was not what it should have been. Shoddy got in and made its vulgar presence very decidedly felt. Yet this element was not so desperately and positively vulgar but that it might have gotten on well enough for an ordinary ballroom inter- course; but supper time came, and that, like the mystic bour of midnight in the old fairy story, dissipated all the fine illusions. The great test of the table was-too much for the superficial gentility of shoddy. Goldsmith re- counts a peculiar experience he had with a stranger whom he met at a @inner party. Well dressed, quiet, respectful ‘and @ good listener, the strange gemtteman seemed to be all that a gentleman should be, and Gdld- smith was charmed with his new acquaintance. So they went through the-greater part of the dinner. But dumplings were brought on, and the quiet listener could listen no longer, but, with eyes bent on the contents of that favorite dish, expressed the whole depth of his nature in the one phrase —“Hah! them’s the jockies for me.” So it was with the supper. The favorite dish, whatever it was, developed the true na ture, and the grand ball degenerated into an immense “muss,” which went from bad to worse, until shoddy at length became so obstreperous that the police appeared to have thought that there was a riot. They accordingly went in to put it down, and jostled and hustled men and women indiscriminately out of the way, helped themselves to the wine, and flnally got to be as bad as their betters. Certainly the police be came unruly, charged into the@supper room aud beiped themselves —and they lave before tots acted in the same manner at other places. We have endeavored to acoount for it on the riot theory, aa it is a matter difficult of expla- nation in any other way; but it was distin- guished from other unmannerly demonstra- tions of the night only as it was the task So ended the grand ball Tan Loxoon Times on Cuarrssoous The Biunderer is under the impression that (he army late under Rosecrans wast capitulate. We lake pleasure in informing our transatlantic contem porary that there i+ not the slightest danger of such consummation, however much the Times may desire it Turning Tun Tances.—It ia cnrious that, whilst the European Powers are plotting aad achemiag to introduce monarchical institutions on this continent, one of their number, the King of Denmark, should seriously entertain the idea of converting bis kingdom into a re- public. We presume that our present trials bave convinced him that no other form of gov eroment offers the same security against ex- ternal aa well aa iaternal danger. Were the Danes to adopt republican itutiens they would instantly paralyze the league that has been formed against them, and revolutionize half the European continent. We sball soon wee the effect of this “fire iu the rear’’ on the Powers who are concerned in the Mexican plot Austria would be the fret to be affeoted by it, and Louis Napoleon’s turn would come next. The ball of revolution has only to be set roll- ing by s government like Denmark for it to sweep over the whole of the Kuropean conti- nent. Such is the effect of the boasted failure of republican institutions. No sooner is one of the monarchical countries of Europe threat- ened in its independence than it flies to them as its only safeguard against aggression.

Ono of the finest compositions that wo have seen of this Gifted artist ts Bow on exhibition at Goupil’s. The aub ject is “Mercy’s Dream,” from the *+Pilgrim's Progress.'* It will be recollected that in 1841 Mr. Huntington ox- bibited a picture—scarcely mere than @ ekotch—of this same gubject, which became very popular, A propoai- tiou was made to him to have it engraved; but be did not think the work sufMciently elaborated to submit it to Guch a test. He determined 10 repaint it, however, cn 8 larger acale and with groater attention to dotaii; but cir- cumstances interfered with his purpose, and soveatocn years elapecd before be commenced, in London, the pre- sent picture. As econ as it was completed he placed it in the engraver’s hands, and it is only recently that it has ‘beon sent here for exhidition. In composition, ooior and careful handling we Know of but few works of the American school that can compare with this picture. Whilst the sentiment of the beautiful allegory which it embodies is tenderly and dolicatcly treated, it exhibits remarkable strongin in its artistic development. No fatse cones are employed ia the effort to produce luminous effects. It ia broadly aad firmly paintel throughout, and yet the mind finds realized in i all the goftaoss and dreaminess it had profigured. In short, the processes by which the artist has arrived at hia results areas much to be admired as the view of in- spiration which suggested the allegory itself. ‘The engraving is veing executed by Mr. Barlow, ao favorably known to the world of art, and will shortly be completed.

On inquiring of the people dwolling along tho euad be yond Bie Springs, we learned that the rebela commenced retreating on Saturday night, aod that their roar guard got away ata vory oarly hour on Sunday morning. Gue advance guard cousequently pushed on at a rapid rato of speed, and at Greenville, which was reachod by a march of nome ning or ten miles, found, by inquiry, that tne rear guard of the rebels had passed oaly an hour before. Altalong the road were the evidences of their beaty fight. Several artillery caissons bad been overturned oa {he roadside and partially dostroyed, muakets and ae coutrements had veeu thrown away, the dead were ioft apburied and the wounded entirely abandoned. Not a singic rebel soldier, officer or eurgeon bad romained te care for bis disabled comrades, The raltroad bridge four miles west of Greenville was fired; but owradvacce guard came up iv time to prevout ils entire destruction, aude ging of men are Dow at work restoring it. From Greea- ville the flight of the rebels seems to bave boon made with still more precipitation; for the railroad aad cova- try road bridges were unharmed. A ELANS MOVEMENT AND A wt.iNam, 1 have aow to speak of a movement which was akiifui- ty planved but unsuccessfully carried out. Just previous to our feaving Lick creck, a brigade of Genera’ Bheckel- ford’s division of cavalry, under comman@ of Coloael Foster, made a detour to our extreme !e(t, passiag around by way of Rogersville and Bay Mountain bepoud the right Haak of (he enemy, aad succeeded by diat of rapid marching in reaching Henderson's Milis yesterday morn- iug, a point eome twelve miles in the rear of the position occupied by them during the fight on Saturday morniog. Colone! Foster hat uader his command an atnple force of cavalry to effect his purpose, and in addition was provi- ded wiih two batteries of artiltery. But from the fact Uhat a report bad reachod him by some means—eo runs ibe story—that our main body bad been beaten ia the ight of the day vofore at Biue Springs, he was timid about encountering the enemy, apd accordingly baited his com- mand ata poiat away from (he road ever which (be rebels would pass. In the night le detached the Fifth Judtana, few pieces of artilery,to make & recon. noissince down ‘he road, one company of which advanced witbia @ short distance of Greenville, where it was chal- Jenged by the rebel patrol. At daybreak the ment morn- ing the rebels made their appearances with thelr mate body in full retreat, On comiag up with the Fifth o brisk Agbt ensued, artitlery being fresly used on both sides; but our cavairy was compelled to fall back before the overpowering numbers Of the fugitive enemy, became {ugitives thomselves ia tarn, aod Led to the mais body.
