ad just passed over it. Shelby took it and was soon close upon his rear. His order to the commander of his advance was to charge everything in sight. The first thing in sight was Steele's rear guard cavalry, halted temporarily at a spring. Captain Thorp charged it with Shelby close behind him. The rear guard, taken unawares, was broken and driven pell-mell on a supporting brigade of infantry, which in turn was thrown into disorder, and, Shelby charging it, the disorder became confusion and the confusion ended in a precipitate retreat. But before retreating they delivered a volley which sent Captain Thorp down badly wounded with his horse across him, and a dozen others, among them Lieut. Dan Trigg of Marmaduke's escort company, who had been sent the day before with five men to find Shelby and deliver some orders to him. Trigg with his small detachment joined the advance, and at the first fire, he and two of his men went down in death. A brigade of infantry and a battery were sent

g down a road toward Camden. They were hurled back until General Rice, with the Fiftieth Indiana infantry and Voegel's battery, came up to their support. Monroe and Fayth, falling back to Wolf creek, were attacked by this whole force, which they again drove back on the main body, with severe losses. The enemy reported 16 killed and 45 wounded. The brigade under Shelby was at the same time in the enemy's rear as he passed the Terre Noire bottom, killing several and wounding many more. Captain Thorp, of Elliott's battalion, charged a regiment of the infantry, scattering them and receiving a painful wound. Second Lieutenant Trigg, of Marmaduke's escort, having been sent to Shelby with dispatches, charged with Shelby's men and fell mortally wounded. Gordon's, Harrell's and Morgan's commands were stationed that night at the ford, while Cabell's and Greene's brigades fell back and encamped. The enemy remained halted at the river all of the 3d, waiting perhaps for Thayer, but were

ess singularly favored by climate, succeeds only in a dense population; for a small vineyard requires the labor of many hands. It is a law of nature, that, in a new country under the temperate zone, corn and cattle will be raised, rather than silk or wine. The first culture of cotton in the United States de- 1621 serves commemoration. This year the seeds were planted as an experiment; and their plentiful coming up was, at that early day, a subject of interest in America and England.

Nor did the benevolence of the company neglect to establish places of education, and provide for the support of religious worship.

out of the building. He is very seriously burned about the body. The flames rapidly spread to the adjoining buildings on the west, No. 29 Beekman street, and to 163, 165, and 167 William street, and to 63 and the rear of 61 Ann street. The firemen were early on the ground, and notwithstanding their utmost efforts, five buildings were totally destroyed and several others badly burned. The aggregate losses in Beekman, William, and Ann streets, including stock and buildings, and damage by water, will probably reach $150,000. Among the sufferers occupying the other buildings are C. W. Baker, printer, loss $70,000, insurance $35,000, G. C. White, envelope manufacturer, $15,000, insurance, $10,000; Messrs. Thorp, dealers in upholstery, &c., loss $8,000, fully insured; F. E. Wellington, importer of brass, loss $8,000, insured. There were also a number of other sufferers. Three of the buildings belonged to the estate of the late James Connor and were insured for $26,000.

Progress of the War. From Northern papers, of the 7th, we give some additional extracts of news: The Calm in New York after the Storm. The New York Times gives a view of the still condition of Gotham after its late uproar. On Wednesday night, after a visit to the Democratic headquarters, its reporter says: At Thorp's the scene was in many respects the opposite of that presented at the closed doors of Mozart. There, during the day, were no politicians to be seen. They had been out too late the night previous to appear to much advantage during the day, and consequently they were not there. Last night, however, there were a few in the saloons, but none of any note. Those who had risked their money on the election of Seymour were anxious to have the money turned ever, and generally were willing to "pay the wine." Those who had taken the risk on a believe in his ultimate defeat were not so anxious for a settlement — they preferred waiting for the official returns, u
