The various bands sere iiaded the' General, mid whenever he ap peared he was greeted with cheers by the men. Though notifying Gen. Hunter, as his order directed, titatjic ( l-'rcniont ) had to loiigir cotnumml over the troops, he spent several hours in making n personal examination of ground about the city to be prepared; nnd, in accordance with a writ ton request from nil the llrigodier-Gener-nls, ho remained through the night, to lend the army in ease of an assault. All the troops slop' oil their arms Many officers remained up all night, and an attack was hourly expected, hut notning more occur red than the firms' by our troops, on two different roads. The enemy are now encamped on the old Wilson Creek battle ground. On. Fre mont is prepared to leave for St. Louis and will go on, as soon ift lien, l'ope ar rives, who has been sent forward, and will take command until lien. Hunter gets here. Universal gloom prevails throughout the c.unp. A battle will undoubtedly occur ere long. Our troops will meet tho enemy firmly, but they are disheartened, mid have lost their enthusiasm. The ISody Guard, who could not have been induced to re main, are accompanying Gen. Fremont and also his entire staff, including Gen. Asboth the commander of tlio First Pivision. Gen. Fremout will permit n detuonstations by the troops on his departure. Lonsviu.E, Kv. Nov. ;"th. Buckncr has returned towards Bowling Green, and Stanton has gone back into Tennessee. The Federal troops in Kentucky, under Gen. Sherman, arc thus divided: Gen. Scharpff commanded the Eastern; Gen. McCook the Central, and Gen. Crittenden the Western Division. Iu tho Western Division. Col. Durbridge has advanced toward Burry. The Central troops have udvauced to Bacon Creek. It is thought our troops are able to resume the offensive with all security. Southern pnpers say that the less of the rebels at the l.eesburg fight was 300 killed and wounded. All the Federal prisoners from l.eesburg reached ll'cbiuocd on the 24 th of Oct. Richmond papers say that Gen. Kvuns fonght at Leesburg contrary to orders, and is to be court-martialed; and that the Fed eral loss in that engagement was 2,000 killed aud wounded. Beauregard's olTieiul report of the battle of Manassas sav, that 3'.i9 rebels were killed, aul 1,200 wounded, and that the Federal loss wa 4 , it 0 0 killed, wounded, and prisoners.

Nor. 1st The Louisville Journal, of Oct IJOth, has details of a skir niiih between Fed' rul and rebel troops, at Saratoga, Liuu Co'Jiily, on Oct. 20tli, be tween a company of rebel cavalry under Cupt. W. D. Wilson, and n company of rebel infantry, under Cupt, Wal.o, and 200 Federals under Muj. Philip. Mnj. Philips took the traitors by nrprhe, killing 10 to 20, including both Wilcox and Wake, tn kin;' 40 prisoners, M Knn, 2 wnot.s and ii largo amount of jirovidons. The victory was complete. The London Times, in a leader, says: ''Tho blockade of southern ports is now ef fective," and nays foreign nations are bound ..to recognize iLe blockade It aNo shows ou that the cutting off tho cotton supplies is the work of the South ns much as of tho North, mid it also seems quite true that till cotton exportation hits been forbidden by tho Confederate Government in order that foreign nations, and especially lit gland, may be forced to take sides in American (piurrcls. The JUralil's Washington Dispatch says tho President has informed certain V. H. Senators, who called upon hint yesterday to know when a forward inarch was to take place, that the responsibility of such a movement is left with Gen McChllun, and it. is the purpose of the I'xecutivo to sus tain him iu his undertaking, whatever his determination may be. The Senators left satisfied. A dispatch to tho N. Y. IIVM says: The scene nt the Cabinet meeting was very affecting, on the occasion of the reading ol the correspondence between thu Secretary Cameron and Gen. Scott. The latter wept when the Pies'dent read to him the paper authorizing his retirement. I'pon Gen. Scott's arrival at New Y'oik which will be iu ft few days, he will issuu parting address to the American people. Highly trustworthy information from France establishes in diplomatic circles here the fact, that the l'mperor Napoleon and his Government consider thu integrity, greatness, and prosperity of tho American Republic to bo identified with the preseut mill future prosperity of France. Ou Wednesday afternoon about a dozen shots were fired, at intervals from the Reb el batteries erected at Shipping Point, on the Potomac. Most of th balls fell into tho water.

All obscure secession sheet printed lit Linn county, and circulated mostly in the Long Tom precinct, has been looking into tho Constitution, and found out thut the blockade of the Southern ports is uncon stitutional. It says: " If the Southern States nre yet a part of the Uuion, tho Lincoln party has no Constitutional right to ports.'' bloekudo their It then treats its readers to the follow ing clause of the Constitution to prove it: " Skc. '. CuisK ;"). No tax or duty shall be laid on articles exported from any State. No preference shall be given by any regulation of commerce or revenue, to the ports of one Mate oirr I note of anoth er; nor shall vessels bouud to or from one State; be obliged to enter, clear or pay duties, in another." Now it never occurred to this shallow- brained disciple ol Jeff Davis that tho blockade was enforced by tho U. S. Gov emmeut partly to prevent tho violation of ........ .i this e ausc of the Lonsliiuiion ov me clause rebels. The genius who presides over the Al bany organ of treason may find many simi lar instances where the " Lincoln govern ment'' has violated the Constitution. We propose to assist him a little iu hi re searches. Take for example the following, article 4, sec. 2, of the Constitution says " The citizens of each Stato shall be en titled to all privileges and immunities uf cit'zeus in the several Stutes. Well, now " Lincoln's caverntnetit" has allowed tho ' citizens' of MussaehiiNsett under the lead of Butler and the ' citizens' of Ohio under the lead of MeChilan, to eutir Washington City armed but he re fues to let the ' citizens' of South Carolina and Yirginia under the bud of Jeff Davis come thereat ail. Boo boo oo bah ah! how Lincoln docs violate the Con stitution! Ca ve have ilcvoleil inol ol our pa per this week to news. It will be read with more interest thut any thing we could write.

Some of the rich claims urn pay ing as high as from I to S pounds per day with two rockers. The gold is line, ns fur as discovered yet, but is altogether differ ent from that on the Oro Finn, ns it does not have the appearand! ol ever having been washed, but it seems to lie in the very spot where it was first formed. It is in lends or veins, reinging in width from 2 J to 15 feet. On these leads it pays from I to 23 dollars to the pan. The digging a fur as discovered yet, are not very exten sive, eonseipiently everything that would pay well had been snapped up before 1 euino over. Tlio weather is cold and stormy, and the snow Is about eight inches ileepnoiv, with u fair prospect of being two feet if the weather does not change.

David Hutch, writing Ironi Oro Fino Sunday, Nov. !lrd, says they have fieipient snow and rain storms, and that provisions arc rising in price. C. H.
