Tbe rise in the gold premium has stimulated

script o? 8, and quotations have b^en ad vaociaft
since Monday. To-day flonr rose 30c.a40c p^r
barrel, wheat 5c.ai<c per bushel, corn Ic.a'ie ,
o&tslc, whit-key 2c a3c., and pork 25c. per

Strung efforts are being made to engin^r a
still further rise, not only by tbe ordinary spec
ulat rs in gold, but by influential firms inter
ested in the pric? of prod nee, general mer
chandise. and foreign exchange.
Tbe money marHet continues easy to stock
houses at seven per cent on call. In tbe dis
count line the demand is still very limited, and
the indisposition to take any but first class
names continues. Tbe market, however, is a
trifle easier, owing to the advance In gold,
which places merchants in a better position;
but this is more than counterbalanced, in the
estimation of lend-rs, by the prospect of the
psper they may discount now being paid in
currency alter further depreciation. Tbe rates
are quoted at from nine to fifteen per cent.
Foreign exchange is stagnant. Bankers a?k

&IAUYLAND.
The Baltimore Nun'i calculation (in that
paper of this morning) of the state of the Ma
ryland returns, shows a majority, including
the soldiers' vote as far as heard from, of *25
against the Constitution. Before going to pres3
this afternoon we received certain information
that the MaryJaud brigade in the 5th army
corps t;ave a majority of WW for the Constitu
tion. The voir of the Maryland troops in the
<th army corps, in Sheridan's army, atClarks
burg in Western Virginia, at Point Lookout
and elsewhere in Maryland where there are
detachments of troops of that State not yet
heard from, can hardly fail to give the new
Constitution a thousand majority at least. So
we now have little doubt of its adoption.
FROM THE FRONT.
The mail steamer Thos. A. Morgan, Captain
Edgar, arrived this morning from City Point,
with the malls and passengers. She reports
that affairs are unchanged at the front, the
several corps occupying their usual positions.
There is some little cannonading at times Inter
spersed with an occasional discharge of mus.
ketry. The soldiers generally think that some- j
thing will turn up speedily, ana are confident
that the "Cockade City" and Richmond, one or I
both, will "go under" on the occasion of the
next move.
The Morgan brought up a batch of thirty
I rebel deserters who have com? within our
lines dnring the past week. They represent
; the same state or things in the Confederacy
as has heretofore been reported?soarclty and
i high prices of provisions, dissatisfaction among
the soldiers, Ac. They say also that the Con
federate soldiers who are d illy coming into
onr lines are not the only ones deserting the
must*; that many are leaving the army and
going back to their homes, they being satisfied
that the rebel leaders are so closely occupied
around Richmond, in Oeorgla and other places,
that they cannot spare men to look up strag
glers and deserters. These deserters were in
charge of Capt A. H. J. Richardson, of Collis'
Philadelphia Zouaves.
CAPTURE or A VALUABLE STEAMER.
Rear Admiral David D. Porter, writing to
the Navy Department, from hie flagship Mal
vern, Hampton Roads, Va , under date October
11th, reports the capture of the English Block
ade runner Bat. by the U. S. steamer Mont
gomery, Acting Vol. Lieut. Fancen, command
ing. or. the loth instatsea. This was the first
voyage of the Bat, having been only 19 days at
sea. She is a fourteen knot boat, very strongly
built, f?C0 tons, and adapted to catch blockade
runners. She can carry two 30-pounders and
SO-pounder howitzers, and wonld make an ex.
cellent vessel lor the navy. The Bat is a steel
plated vessel, built by Jones, C^uiggan tc tJo.,
of Liverpool, and is a vessel of exceedingly
line lines.

Siege of Charleston?Fonr Hundred and

Eighty-six shots have been fired at the city
since our last report, and twenty-flv? shots at

A few shots were exchanged between Battery
Oregg and our batteries on Sullivan's Island.
No change in the fleet is reported.
From Gen. Hood's Army.
Acoi'sta. Oa., October 10.?The correspon
dent of the Montgomery Mail with Gen. Hood s
army, says the occupation of Rome was afreet,
ed without a flgh'. and the dash into Marietta
was blood lees. "When Sherman learned that
Hood had moved northward he crossed tbs
river with two corps and formed a lino of ob
servation at Vimng's station. On ths 1th the
two arm es held this position to each other
without firing a gun. On the 5th Sherman
withdrew, retiring to Atlanta. Our army then
set to work and elL-ctually destroyed the rail
road from Piz Shanty to Ostenauld. All the
bridges from Marietta w Dalton were destroy
ed. We have strongly fortified Keneshaw

has possession of Rasec*.

Extxksivk Military Arrests. ? This
morning, quite a number of arrests of dealers
In clothing, boots and snoe?, dry goods, fancy
goods, Ac , was made in this city by the mill
tars authorities, and the stores were placed
under gua:d.
The toliowing were araoug the establishments
thus dealt with:
Jol:nson Sr. Sutton, dry goods, 521 7tn street;
lleilbrun & Bro , shoes and boots, next to Odd
Fellowa Hall, 7th street; Newman Sc Co., dry
goods, 7th street; J. H. Smith, clothing, 7th st:
Sears ?v Co., dry goods, '24, Market Space; Wei
aeulield & Co , Odeou HaLi clothing store; Ri
der Sl Wallach, boots and shoes, 450 Pennsyl
vania avenue.
The cause of the arrests Is not positively
known, but it is said that the charge against
the arrested parties is of having supplied goods
to blockade runners.
The total number of persons arrested and
committed to the Old Capuol were thirty-two,
snd it required a considerable force of officers
urd men to carry our promptly and effectively
the otder authorizing the arrests. Capt. Potts
taerf his force of fletectives engaged in tne job,
Vrhile Col. lngrabam headed another fo?ce,
composed of hiB confidential officers.
Fr ;m the fact that the various telegraph
offices were taken possession of and held
while the arrests were b?mg made here, it Is
believed that o'her arrests were being made
elsewhere at the same time. The arrested
parties were Immediately convered to the Old
Ci~pitol, and the keys of each establishment
were turned over to Uol. lngraham.
The wbolr affa<r was conducted with such
quiet effectiveness that not one ol the attaches
of Coi. Tngrabam's nincM who was cot imme
diately connected with those having charge of
I
executing the order. was aware of the tact
until the arreau w?r? mads and prisoner*

oeption.- The contract for tne erection of a

been awarded to S W. Drane. who will imme
diately commence the work, and will, if pos
sible, have It nnder c^vcr before Christmas.
The building. which is to be erected under the
direction of W. K. Hutton, Esq., arhitect, will
be two stories in height, with an nnder room,
which will give an accomm xlation to three
large schools, and the church proper above,
the whole being 43 feet front, by 75 deep. This
building is not, however, intended as the per
manent church, which, it is expected, will be
erected directly on the corner in a few years,
but will give ample accommodation for church
and school purposes, which are much needed,
until the permanent building is erected, wh-?n
it will be used exclusively for sahooi pur
poses. For the present the new church will
be attached to St. Patrick's parish, and will
be under the charge of the Rev. Father
Walter, but it is expected that before the large
church shall been have commenced it will
be erected into a parish.

that Union troops were in pursuit ot them they
sv^edily took their departure from Poolesville
