Affairs In Keutucky have been very quiet of late, and
as the tramp of Bragg's aud Bueli'a receding legions died
away It seemed that we should no more bear the din of
arms in that State, nor be able to chronicle the results of
buttles between rebels and Union foroi-s. The calm and
stillness of the olden times seetne 1 to have once agaiu
visited their ancient seats and healed the wounds of fra
tricidal conflicts. But the calm was of abort duration,
.lohn Morgan, of guerilla notoriety, Is again on the ram.
page, moving with the celerity and stillness of death,
aud swooping down i pou unsuspecting detachments of
Union soldiers, kHLn: some, wounding others, capturing
the sick and parollbg all who are found wearing their
country's uniform, or bearing a musket; then dashing
off with the speed of the wind, to re-enact the same
drama at a distant point. Wo hear of him in a dozen places
at the same tlmo. II# ia certainly ubiquitous, if we tro to
believe the reports of reliable geutleraen, or be aud his
bold riders are supplied with nine ie.tgud bpots or some
thing quits as effective for rapid movoments.
Last Saturday he dashed into Lexington, which waa
then occupied by some of Dumout's cavalry?tho
fourth <Miio?ab ah advance guard, and alter a
briof contest gained possession of the place, killing
Ave or six of oar men In the fray, and losing &
number himself, lie found and parolod from seventy
Ave to a hundred of oar sick and wounded, and
after remaining only about three quarters of an hour
left again and moved towards Versailles. General Da.
mont was soon Informed of the raid,, and instantly started
in pursuit with a thousand cavalry, a section of artillery,
and, to mako the movement more effective, a regiment of
infantry in wagons. It was reported last night that be
had overtaken Morgan, who did not anticipate so rapid a
pursuit, between Versailles and Frankfort, and ad
ministered a sound flogging, which occasioned a
complete rebel rout. Up to latest advices b?
was in full pursuit, moving towards Lawrence
burg, but with what prospect of success, I
b" ieve, h.s not iioeu usee. uineJ. It is stated that the
obsse Humphrey Marshall la eihl ling-ring at Mount Ster
ling, loth to leave iho good thing- of Kentucky and re
turn to Teuuezsoe, where only the dry hurk* r mam, and
few ol lh< se. at d to him it la r?|?i teo the flashing Jijor
gannow wenda hit way, with General Dumont close on
ui* heels.
It waa .eared by nonte in far is, who are evidently not
familiar with the character lor veracity of the tojeirts of
reliable goutlcmen, th >t ihedoiling Humphrey would come
pulling into that quiet village on Saturday night or s'nn
day, and gobh.e up iho troupe thero, and eat the I'nlon
people out ot bouse oud home, by quartering Ills fortes
upou them. But tip to thia aiteruoon nothing hud been
s?eo of him. Mid those who should know Btate that htfie
not within forty nnles of raids; and even If he wore be
wo^idnut attack the force wo have there. Bo that as it
may, wl( WAS certainly a very respectable scaro In
that place all day 8 ud.iy. The arrival of more lropn
haa prob ibiy rea?sur d them, and they can now talk
somewhat c.du y and give us a few tacts.
To show what kind of reliance you can place upon the
reports of persons -contiguous district," let me
cite oke instance. Morgan w 3 reported to be utter
eaiiles yofterday afternoon at four o'clock by good au
thority, and at the same hour, by equally as good autho
rity?reliable g.-utleuien?he waft reported to be at or
ne.tr Ia.vrencoburg; while a thud rejtort placed him,at
the sauie hour, at another point, forty railee distant from
Versailles. Who c x be benovod? All are reliable gen
tlemen, uud no doubt per.ectly satisfied in their own
mi da that they are te ling a correct story; but they are
so unreliable, when they attempt to tell anything relating
to Morgan's.or other rebel forces, that very little faith
can be attached to their yarns. A hundred or two "in.
t ?iii-.ont contrabands" are needed cow to mike the
Bureau of Intelligence complete.
If Humphrey Marshall still loiters about Mount Sterling
there is a (air pr. sport of a tight in that vicinity very
so<>n. or course be cannot be bugged, oh that thing is
about given up tu these parts. I believe that Buell b ,?
failed to bag Bragg, who will escape him with
out doubt. A regiment of Humphrey Marshall's
force, oompoeed la greater part of Teunessee
nas. becoming tired ol blm and of the cause
for which they have been starving, marrbing and
Ogbtiug, concluded to desert and gii e themselves up to
our lurcee. They aid s >. and between (our and five hun
dred wore brought Into Paris on flat ur day by our cavalry,
to wbom they bad surrendered themselves. They were
brought in in squads, end attracted a good deal of atten
tion. They oxpte-a their disgust of their KaistatOan
leader in the most forcible manner, and gave many proofs
of the fact that they were glad to got away from him and
get under tlie <dd flag again. Of course they are ragged,
dirty and blessed with good appetites, bnt cot with good
shoes or hats. In.ieed. in the latter eeseutial articles to
the eomfbrt of soldiers they are badly off. lbey will be
furnl-bed with shoes and bats, somehow or other, before
I mg, and properly taken core of They roport that Mar
shall's force is pretty thoroughly demoralized,andanttous
to get home. It is growing Is autifuliy loss every day by
desertions, And bids fair to leave the jolly Marshall atone
in his glory on the summit of Mount sterling, If we do not
hasten bis departure theuoe.
Major General Granger is to take the flsld to-morrow,
and weehull no doubt henrot n race between him aud
Marshall if he moves in his direction, and perhaps we
may hear of a light very eoon. General Grauger is an
energetic and able leader, and knows bow to follow up an
advaulage gained. He will not loiter on the mad, y?u
may rest assured, but will carry out bis plan of camnuign
with rapidity and success. What that plan Is it is not
necessary to explain just now. It will rapidly develop
its.'ir. I hope it will be a righting campaign, as it surely
will be if the euemy can be reached. The advance of his
oorp* is at i*aris, or peiba, s to day at Lexington.
Affairs in General Wright's department are now In
smooth working order. By constant aud untiring exer
lion, General Wi ighl, aided by Mqjor McLean, Acting Ad
jutant General, has built up a department perfect !u all
lis details, when there was a thing but chaos and a de
cidedly nuxed slate of affairs Wien he came bore. He
h >a organised an army of over one hundred Ihouranl
men in less th .n two mouths, an.l placed It
in the field, thoroughly armed and equipped, end
ready lor any service. No other department & unman*, or
can pr cent such an astonishing result General Wright

Major Mclean lias exhibited a thorough knowledge of

Pai.tinokr, Oct. 8Rt ISflt.
The American's special correspondent from Harpor's
Ferry says, the troops of this division of the Army of the
Potomac are in great glee to day over the success of the
expedition which returned yesterday from its visit to
Loudon county, having driven out all guerillas between
flarper'a terry and Leeiburg, bringing bark with
tbenf (tpwifrda of fifty prisoners and thirty
horses. The prisoners are all housed In one
of the buildings on the muln street, near the gale of
tho Arsenal, and have been lying out on the portico and
roof all day, viewing the stirring scene by which they
are surrounded.
The rumors cent forward from We?hingtuu every day
or two that the rebels are leaving Winchester arc known
here to be unfounded. (>v the" contrary, conva
lescents and 6tr3gglcr* from Richmond are being
daily sent forward to Winchester, together with
reinforcements of fresh troupe. Indeed there la
no doubt that the strength of the rebels la
Virginia is being massed In the Shenandoah valley, and
that they have occupied the whole Hue of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad from Harper's Ferry to Paxum's Cut
From all that I can see and learn, It )? very evident that
low water in the Potomac operates on the movement*
of both armies. Tbs rebels feel safe between
Martinsburg and Winchester so long as the
Potomac is as easily fordabls anywhere
running brook, and have no dlajmaliion to leave
the rich valley of the Ehenr.ndoah. Whilst General Mr.
Clellan Is compelled to keep his army scattered atong the
river for a dietance of thirty miles, it is evidently tmpoe
Bible for him to move on the rebels m fores, should be
attempt to mass his array for this purpose, lh? rebels
would cross again Into Maryland above, and
be back again to Virginia by the lime
he reaches thorn. So soon, however, as wo
have a heavy rain storm, sufficient to add two or three
feet to the depth of thu current, no doubt the commander*
of both armies will show their hands.
The recommendation of Governor fotcbor to destroy
the Baltimore and Ohjo Railroad, has, as far as 1 can
learn, been carried out to tie fall extent from Harper's
Ferry to a distance of ten or twelve miles beyond Mar
tinaburg. Ons entire track bas boeu taken up be
tween Harper's Ferry and Mart In*burg and car
risd off towards, Winchester beyond ^Martinsburg.
Fires bave been seen et night along the track or the road,
Indicating that the ties of tho track have been broken up
and burned, as welt as all water stations and other pro
perty. ThU is especially the case at the foot of North
Mountain, from whence raile nre also said to have been
carried off. It is also reported that they are filling up
raxton'a Cut by blowing up rscks. and burying tho rMli
with many feet of stoue and earth. Numerous bridges

A glance at affairs to o*mp just new would immediately
change the impression which seems to exist with a great
many that the army In thla vicinity Is to go Into wintor
quarters without leaving It* present camping ground or
dealing the rebels another blow. Certainly the beautiful
weather of which ws are now in full enjoyment, the
favorable condition of the roads, the elasticity, enthu
siasm and buoyancy of spirits which pervade the troops
all should lend le reuder the policy of our generals one ? f
Immediate action, especially when the advantages lust set
forth will be exrbauged in'a month or more for the in
clemency of e rainy and wintry seaaon, with the
roads impassable to man, beast or vehicle. But
he wbe entertains thl* linprefsteo Is certainly
not a vtellaot at tho <ampa, where everything would in
dicate that, If n movement Is not very Immediate, It ia
certainly not tbe intontien to go into wlnier quarters.
There I* no felling of trees, no hauling of logs, no staking
out of particular spots for huts; but the men remain en

Virginia, Sc., St.
About eleven o'clock on Monday nigh I laat, the Sixth
New York cavalry, Ijeuloiiant t olonel Mi Vtcker, acooin
pen led by Knapp'a battery, started la the direction of
Hillsboro, Vn. These were followed about two o'clock on
Tuesday morning by two brigades, the whole under the
command of General Geary, formerly colonel of the
Twenty-eighth Pennsylvania. Tbe regiments compoe'ng
these brigades were the One Hundred and Hecond New
York, Twenty eighth and One Hundred and Rlerenth
Pennsylvania, the Fifth, Seventh and Slxtysixth Ohio,
and tbe Third Mary land. The eavolry was sent on ahead,
soot:ring the country In all directions. No sign of an
enemy was seen until they arrived in the neighborhood
of Wheatland, which is about twenty miles from Har
per's Yerr.v. Here tboy were fired upon by tbe enemy's
pickota, who fell back to tbe main body. Our men ad
vanced, aud soon came In sight of a scouting party of tbe
enemy'e cavalry, who fired their carbines, instantly kill
ing James Murray, or Co. A, wonndlng Sergoani French
In tbe shoulder, John Hays slightly in Ibe bond, and kill
ing and wounding a number ef our horses, among them
that of the Lieut. Colonel. Murray wan shot in the centra
of the forohea l. French and Hays aieo belonged to Co. A
of the Sixth Now York cavalry. This volley whs answer
ed by one from our brave fellows, and the next Instant
tbe order " Charge'* wan given. Already several
saddles had been emptied by our tire, and as
the Sixth dashed la among them, cutting right and
left, the rebels, unablo to staud such an Impetuous
charge, broke, some starting for the woods, but being
unable to make much headway, ninny dismounted aud
made off, leaving their horses and arms iu the hands of
the victors Others made for bouses, haystacks and out
building", nnd continued firing upon our men until they
tbeinsi ivon weru shot or captured. The rest run in alt
directions, our men pursuing tham between four and fivo
miles, oapltiring several They professed to lie w hat is
called an organized Independent company, with regularly
commissioned nod non comml-mont.l offl e s; but were
no more nor less titan a guerilla baud, numbering Id all
about one hundred and fifty. We lust no more in killed
a id wounded than what is staled above, but
their loss, la killed, wounded and prisoners,
suems almost Incredible. Mavis of their men
wera burled by our party, twenty three or four wore
w Minded, nnd upwards of IV ly taken pri:?uers, amen"
th in the Captain. Lieutenant (Jrubb, and Liuutenm t
Alexander. The latter whs wounded in tho leg. Many of
the wonnded, who could not well be removed, were
paroled. Thirty five horses were captured, as well as a
large number of guns and sabres. The rebels meant mis
chi d, as their fibres we e sharpened on both side*, from
tho i o.nt to tho bill. Your correspondent felt of one, and
tbs edge was ground down almost to the sharpness of ri
razor. The prisoners at first were sulky and morose,
but after u while they became more sensible About
twenty were captured by the cavalry, and thu remainder
headed off aud Ukeu jirironerr iu the woods by our infan
try. At night our forces, with their prisoners, arrived
at I/rvettsville, whine they cam pod. The citizens of
this place kindly welc mod and received our troops,
and more than one cried "Hurrah for tbe Unlool"
"Three cheers for the hum and Htrlpos."
They alt appeared glad that, tho rebel gang
were so completely broken up, and many even said so,
calling th< m gueilllas, whom tbey said all dreaded,as
they robbed friend and foe alike. About ball' past one
o'clock P. M. the cavalry, vydb Opir prlsnneib, arrived at
Harper's Ferry. Tbe latter looked better than any set of
men with the rebel garl) on that 1 have yet seen. They
were of all ages, from boy to old man; were dressed in
new suits of gray; many of them full In flesh, and nearly
all Intel.igeut, fine Poking fellows. They were taken, or
rather steuped up stairs to a third story reoro, next door
to Adorns Express office, whore they ranged themselves
around the room, wIth tbeir backs u< tbe wall. ;?lchn>ond
papcre must have been very sraree umong them,
as, on my askini* them for one, I was told thai
they bad not seen a Southern er Km thorn paper
for over two weeks. In my bumble opinion, I
should judge that they were two companies?as
it was known that they had two captains?making
tbeir wav to Winchester, for the purpose of offovlng their
services and joining the army, as the clothes and appear
anceof nearly all tbe prisoners showed plainly that* hoy
bad not long been engaged In the " trade of war."
Our cavalry complain that whsri tbe battery opened
the shell wore Bred at them bymisUka.au many burst
user tU?*ra and over tbeir bead*. compelling them to put
spurs to their hors.* and rids beyond ihe reach of the
guns. Fortunately. not s man wss Injured by this very
foolish mistake, throe rtb?' flag* (entirely new) sud
one ITilon flag wars taken l'ro.n them during the skir
mish. Their sabres wers made in Mas* tchusetts and
their guDH were composed of carbines, rifles ant shot
guns. Tho sahreft, carbines and rifles bad.no doubt,

tured was a line bay stallion, valued at $700.
