Highly Important Arrests.
A i.ami op ????te?eette?? captubed by
OBDEB OK COL BAEXIi.
Within the past few months, a vast number
of fifty cent stamps have been put in circula
tion, which were good copies of the genuine.
In order to discover the gang engaged in tbis
nelarious business, by which thousands, prin
cipally of the poorer classes, have been vic
timized, Col. Baker, chief of the National De
tective Police at tVasliingtou, set about to give
tbe criminals a local habitation anda name,
and eventually a place in the State prison.
The zeal of his own torce rendered them so
well known among thieves in general that be
was led to select Messrs. James A. McDevitt
and John ?. W Clarvoe, of Superintendent
Webbs corps ot detectives in Washington; and
theee yontg officers soon proved themselves
equal to the important and difficult task set
before them Acting under the instructions of j
Col- Baker, they soon discovered that an im
mense number of bogus fifty cent stamps were
in circnlation In the State of New Jersey, and
further search .howed that they were offered
and passed in large numbers alon,. tbe line oi
the Erie railroad. After working up the case,
they traced the principal issue of the notes to
Patterson. N. J., and as they were about pro
ceedir.g to hunt up the counterfeiters, they be
came frightened, and removed the press and
pla'e_ to port Jarvis.
The officers then repaired fo Port Jervis, and
alter further effort., they found tbat the notes
were printed ia the house of A. C.Marvin, a I
brakeman on tbe Erie road, On entering the
roems ot Marvin th^y discovered several ofthe \
parties engaged in printingthe notes on asmall
pree., and in placing bronze on them. The of- |
fleers tb*?n arrested a man named Robinson,
who Ooif. seed that he bad engraved tbe plates,
lie stated that he commenced the workaday
after he had be ? reiea .ed from Trenton jail,
where be had served a term for connterleltinir.
In tbe room there was a man named Alexan
der, who had come from the West to buy the
;: r ? lot ol notes, engaged in learning the art of
printing? tbem. so as to be able, perhaps, to start
a similar establishment "on his own hook," iu
Kalnma'/oo, Michigan, where he bails from.
Two women,named Jennie Marvin and Fannie
Storms, both Meters of Marvin, were occupied
in tiTu-riii g bronze on the cotes after Kobinsoa
had printed them. All the parties were ar
rested ondare now in custody, with the ex
ception of Alexander, who succeeded in pro
curing bail.
The plates, presses, bronze, bank paper, and
cote?. were then captured by the officers, who
found ?40.000 of the counterfeit currency in
fiity-cent stamp?, rolled up m bundles, in the
room.
The plates are accurately executed. One is
on st?el and tbe o'her en opper? the latter
being ihe indorsement of the fifty-cent stamp.
The previous it-sues of counterfeit flfty-c??nt
??tamps were detected?the indorsement being
printed from a woodcut?but there 13 no such
means to detect this last issue. It 13 probable
that an immense number of them are now
ireely tnk.a lb change.

ANOTHER GUERRILLA OUTRAGE ON THE
MANAPSA3 RAILROAD.
"Yeeterday evening, a gang of Mo.by's guer
rillas, represented to be some four hundred
strong, made an attack on an outer picket ?if
tbe yd D. C. rpgimenr, stationed at White
riains, on the Manae.as railroad.
Tbe picket guard, consisting of eight men,
under the command of Lieut. Jos. Smith, com
pany H, il red upon the guerrillas, but were
not able to successfully resist the overpow
ering numbers of the guerrilla gang, and they
were captured wi*h the exception of two men.
Lieut. Smith was shot through the knee, aud
one man was badly wounded in tbe groin.
Lient. S. was stripped of his clothes and
robbed of -1,400, intrusted to his care by his
men for safekeeping, and when the guerrillas
retreated they ordered him to mount a horse
and go with them, but he refused, saying that
he was too badly wounded, and they might
shoot him and do their worst. They then
abandoned bim, and moved rapidly away
with their other prisone_%, and he was rescued
by a body of our men in pursuit of the guer
rillas, and taken to the hospital at Alexan
dria.
A party of guerrillas, reported to belong to
Kincbeloe's gang, also committed similar out
rages yesterday between Accotink and Burke's
Station, killing, near the latter place, private
Wm. B. Moore and another man belonging to
the 6th Pennsylvania heavy artillery. The
active measures now being taken will prevent
any similar outrages on the road.
A REBEL CANINE DESPATCH CARRIER.
An officer who came up irom City Point to
day had with him An ugly looking specimen of
the genus canine, which he guarded very care
fully. The dog, it appears, was a great pet
with both our own and the rebel pickets In
front of Hancock's corps. The dog had been
trained to carry messages between the pickets.
A rebel paper would be placed in his mouth
and he would scamper off to the Union line3,
deliver up the paper and return with a North
ern paper. He has been entrusted with pack
ages ot coffee and tobacco, and always deliv
end them promptly and safely.
The rebs, however, tried to make use ot him
for transmitting information from one portion
of their lines to another, and the four-legged
messenger have been caught with one of those
messages, he was confiscated and brought
North. _
FROM CITY G????.
The United States mail steamer Manhattan,
Captain Ryther, arrived here this afternoon
from City Point. The delay in getting here was
occasioned by a severe storm on tue bay last
nicht.
An ui.asnal quiet Has prevailed in Grant's
army for few days past The pickets, bow
ever, keep np an occasional shooting.
The election throughout the army was con
ducted very quietly, and the large majorities
everywhere obtained for the Union ticket
pleases tbe soldier, hugely.
REFUSING TO OBEY ORDERS.
Forty-seven quartermaster's employees, who
refused to go to Virginia for the purpose of as

o'clock, the work ot opening the bids for the

numerous, and it will be impossible to open
and record them all to-day. Some of the
amounts bid for are very large, a number o?
them reaching a million dollars. As far as the
bids have been opened they range from below

THE PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION.
The State Still in Doubt?The Majority for
Either Side will be Small?Both Parties
Claim the State.
Harrisbubg, Oct. 11.?From information
received here this morning, lt is absolutely
impossible to determine how the State has gone
until tbe reception of the official returns. Both
parties claim small majorities, but unexpected
resulta in heavy northern Union counties ren
der it scarcely possible to overcome the large
Democratic gains. In either case it is admitted
that the majority will be small, and can only
be determined by the official vote. The record
ing of the soldiers' votes is necessarily very
slow, tbey being distributed among various
cuuniii?'. and from tbe manner in which they
appear on the tally papers it is impossible to
make up the aggregate until tbe record is more
complete.

Tfce meeting was called to order bv John E

("pa?.?e of AnDrcTiON.?Last night Depu-y
Marshal Borst,of New York, arrived in Wash
ington with a writ for the arrest of Se?orita De
Lopez, (whose right name is Mrs. Eckhardt,)
on charge ot abducting a child. A new war
rant was isBU??d by Justice Johnson and di
rected to G. P. Hotchkiss, who was deputized
to serve it. The Se?orita was arreeted and
taken before Justice Johnson, when it ap
peared by the statements made that the child
was the adopted son of Geo. W. Seigrist, an
actor in a circus in New York. On Thursday
night week the defendant abducted the child
from tbe circus, aud came to Washington and
engaged at the Canterbury, where she appeared
with this and other children last Saturday
night, performing on the stage. Last night,
alter the performance, ehe was arrested, with
a man named Charles Smith, who was charged
with aiding and abetting the abduction. The
legal documents confirming the statements
were exhibited, and Justice Johnson told her
tbat he could give her an opportunity to em
ploy counsel if she desired it. She admitted
that the child was the claimants, and tbat she
took it from the door ofthe circus in New York
and brought it to Washington; but she would
like to have counsel.
Justice Johnson held her to bail in ftl.'KKi to
appear at 2 o'clock this evening, with the child,
lor further hearing, Mr. George Lea, propri
etor of Canterbury, becoming her security.
Tbe defendant intends to contest the delivery
ot the child to ita adopted parent, Seigrist, on
thp ground of systematic cruelty practised by
Seigrist to make the child perform feats be
yond the capacity of one of its tender age
eight years. The child, when in the office of
the justice, evinced great affection tor Madame
Lopez, and clung to her, screaming, ?? Don't
let them take me back to that man Seigrist."
Deputy Marshal Borst testified that the natu
ral mother of the child is dead, and that the
father became so abandoned and reckless that
the authorities of Boston, Mass , took up the
child as a foundling, and it was adopted by
Geo. W. Seigrist, from whom it was abducted
by the defendant.

Pressed ihto Service.?Yesterday, as ha3
already been stated, a large number of the
hands employed in the i.-luarfrmaster's De
partment were sent from the city to work in
clearing up the country In the vicinity of the
Manassas Gap railroad, so that the woods
should not be used asa cover for guerrillas.
At the 7th street wharf, after the colored hands
had been marched on the boot, work appeared
at a stand still. It is absolutely necessary,
so great are the demands from the various
corrals and stables, tbat tbe forage department
here should be kept in working trim constant
ly: and to supply the places of the men sent
off, the officers in charge made a raid on all
colored men found loitering about in the neigh
borhood unoccupied. The raiders consisted of
the Veteran Reserve Corps, who performed
their duty admirably, gathering up within a
few squares of the wharves, over one hundred
men. Capt. Allen, the efficient Quartermaster
there, was thus fully able to keep the work
from accumulating on bis hands.
Criminal Court, Judge Olin.? Yesterday,
John Leonard, indicted for larceny, was tried,
but the jury were unable to agree.
In the case ol Sarah Rody, indicted for lar
ceny, a nolle pros, was entered.
John Gleason, indicted for a rape upon
Joanna Horring. a girl about twelve years of
age, was tried.
This morning, the jury in the case of Gleason,
returned a sealed verdict of guilty of an assault
and battery with intent to commit a rape, and
not guilty of committing the rape.
Gleason strenuously asserted his innocence,
and Judge Olin, after addressing him on the
enormity ef the crime, sentenced him to the
lightest punishment under the law?one year
in the penitentiary.

A Female Pickpookbt.? This morning,
Justice Thompson committed Mary McNeill
to jail for trial on the charge of picking the
pocket ol James.Brown. Mr*. McNeill met
Mr. Brown on 7th street and inquired of him
the way to the corner of loth and E streets.
Mr. Brown was going in that direction, and ac
cused walked beside him, and succeeded in
taking his wallet from bis pocket and took
theretrom a '920 Treasury note, two 810 Treas
ury notes, a ?5 gold piece and notes of smaller
denomination. As soon as Mr. Brown discov
ered his loss he called upon officer Greer, and
the woman was arrested, and the money was
found in her possession, and this morning she
