The Louisville Journal has q large circulation in

thousands of dollars. 1t has pretended to feel so

as have lost the following paragraph, from the
Louisville Democrat, will be of interest:
"Those know nothings who staked their repu-
tatons and their money upon Prentice estimation
of the Fillmore strength, must have high appre-
citation of his judgment or honesty. We under
stand that he stated yesterday, in public CONVEX
sation, that it was his conviction three months
ago that the election would result as it has beeu
announced. Prentice's opinions are very encour.

GRANADA, Monday, Oct l3, 1856
Dear Sir Since you left we have had several
encounters with The enemy. After being delayed
several days by the failure to arrive of the howt
ger carriages and other apparatus, marched for
Massaya on the llth, with upwards of 500 men.
Early on the morning of the 18th we attacked the
enemy, getting possession of the small Plsza Of
Msssaya, and driving them all into the main Plaza
when early tn 5 morning (about 10 O'Clock, A. M }
l received the news that some 600 or 700 of the
enemy had attacked this place. 1 Immediately
marched hither and the enemy were driven away
and dispersed with small loss on our part. Alto
gether the loss on our part has been small, for the
number of men engaged The enemy have suffer-
ed severely, not only in their killed and wounded,
but also from assertions. The force driven from
Granada to-day was madeup of Guatemsleans and
Chamorristas- relicts, these last, of the party
at San Jscinto. Many of them were killed. The
! guard house is filled with wounded and prisoners,
and the whole force was dispersed. The Guate-
maan allies will never do the enemy any more
