by the enemy. Including those still unburied, and the wounded who have since died, the enemy's loss in killed alone must have been nearly or quite one thousand. The number of prisoners taken by our troops (including wounded) was 276 Judging from these figures, and remembering the well known habit which the Yankees have of carrying off their wounded, it seems quite reasonable to believe that their total loss in killed, wounded and prisoners could not have been less than two thousand. Dr. Locke, a United States Navy Surgeon, on board one of the monitors, was arrested Sunday morning on Morris Island inside our lines. Dr. L. had no surgical instruments, not even a about him when captured, but he states that he came ashore to assist the land surgeons in their operations, who were well supplied. He was brought to this city Sunday night, and was seen walking our streets without hindrance yesterday. The Courier, alluding to the assault of Saturday night, chronicles the followin

A mortar fire was kept upon Battery Wagner every few minutes during the night

Economy. --The difficulty of procuring leather makes shoes for servants very high, and from present indications the prices are not likely to fall off before winter acts in. The cheapest shoes we have seen, for farm use, are shoes with wooden bottoms. These bottoms are made in Hanover county in large numbers, and are sold at moderate figures. Indeed, every former can have them made on his own plantation at trading cost. He has then only to purchase the upper leathers and have them out and fitted to the bottoms, and then have them tacked on. When properly made, they are said to be warmer and dryer than these with leather soles, and wear much longer.

Mr. Gross.--In such a case it would be well to have the fact published and placarded through the city. The Board then adjourned. The White Exodes from New York The Herald, of the 17th inst., gives the following account of the way the frightened citizens of that place took to their heels from the riots: It need not be supposed that the fear, consequent upon our troubles, is confined exclusively to the negro element. On the contrary, there has been a great exodus of the whites, particularly the more wealthy, who seem to labor under an apprehension that the destruction of property is to be general.

The New York World gives the following history of the passage of the ordinance by both Boards of the Council: The President of the Beard of Aldermen decided that a majority of all the members elected could pass the ordinance. The ordinance was unanimously passed. Alderman Hall.--Does the Chair decide that the ordinance is passed? The President — The Chair so decides. Alderman McCool, who was absent when the ordinance passed, came in, and asked that his vote should be recorded in the affirmative.

The ordinance from the Board of Aldermen was received relating to the draft. Mr. Russell said that the opposition was to any draft.

The people reason that even if they pay three hundred dollars now, what guarantee is there that they will not again be called next week, or week after next? The act under which this draft takes place only exempts such parties from this draft for pay of $300. I am in favor of relieving all from the draft. I am opposed to an unreasonable, unjust draft, like the one now being enforced, which falls so heavily upon the poorer classes. I trust that some amendment may be made whereby the $360 will only be
