THE HAY TRADE.-This trade is very

brisk at present in the upper section of the
county. The great demand which ten thou
sand mules in the camps about Perryville
make upon the hay crop, has caused an
advance in price, and the farmers, who have
bale to spare, are packing and sending it
to market. Straw, too, is in demand, com
msnding good price, with fair prospect
ofan advance IN the price of all cattle prov

above and below, and in the immediate vicn-
ily of the ferry. it was Judged advisable to

BATTLE AT SANTA ROSA ISLAND.
The details of the fight at Santa Rosa say
the rebel forces, | 800 strong, landed on the
island from three steamers. about four miles
above Wilson's camp. Their landing was
effected at about two o clock in the morn.
ing. The night was very dark.
They rapidly formed in three columns,
and proceeded silently towards the Zouaves
camp, hoping to effect a total SURPRISE
They were but partially successful in this.-
The picket guard, about six hundred wards
| OIL discovered and fred upon them. gave
he alarm. and saved the regiment from
humiliation.
The attack by the cne.ly's columns was
Simultaneous, and voley after vollcv was
aimed upon the Zouaves. who were forced
to tall back, leaving the camp in the hands
of the rebels.
The rebels then commenced burning the
camp.
Fort Pickens was by this time thoroughly
aroused, aud three companies of regulars
came to their assistance
The rebels relrcated to the boats, closely
followed by regulars and a small number OF
volunteers, keeping up destructive fire
upon them, killing and wounding Il large
number.
The rebels finally reached the boats, but
the steamers were over five hundred yards
from the beach, and our men poured re.
peated volcys into the crowded mass.
Every bullet told, and-by the shouts and
confusion of the rebels, ii was evident that
we had obtained ample satisfaction for the
insult to our flag
NAVAL BATTLE AT NEW ORLEANS.
Ne,c York, OFT. 24.-Thc steamer MrCicilan
brings reliable account of the fight at the
mouth of the Mississippi.
The rebel feet consisted of six gunboats,
| the ram HnIaysas, and a large number OF
fire, ships, filling the river from shore to
shore.
10 avoid the fire ships, the squadron got
under weigh Immediately and drifted down
the river.
The Richmond, Probe, Pincennes. and Wight
'ngaie got ashore on the bar, and while
ashore were attacked by the rebels, but only
one of the shots took effect, and that struck
the Richmond on the quarter. They were
beaten off by the pincennes with only two
guns, the rest Of her armament, with her
chains, anchors, etc, having been thrown
overheard to tighten her, she being much
exposed to the rebel fire.
MOI one person uas killed or ,counded in The
squadron.
The Richmond, PrtNe and Tincennes were
towed off the next day by the steamer
McCieilun.
The Nightingale was still ashore, but would
probably get off the next day.

THREATENED CRoP FAnURE-According to q
Sacramento paper, the prospects Of harvest this
year, in the Sacramento valley, are gloomy In
deed. The recent dry weather, accompanied BY
q cou inuance Of nOrtherly winds, is said to have
changed the face Of the country from q healthy
verdure to a dry and sickly appearance. The
crops, which two weeks ago promised bOunti-
full yield, are now literally dried up; and unless
they were soon visited BY rain, the yield would
not amount to half crop. In fact the wheat
and all late grain could not possibly mature to
few days Agreat quantity Of grain on the river
bottoms has been killed out BY the overflow from
the recent rising Of the Sacramento river, and
the crops on the arabic lands are now being cut
short for want Of moisture.
