THE WAR NEWS !!

rhe news by last nights mail seem to
indicate general quiet among the war cle,
menls.
The report pu hlished in the afternoon
papers for several days that Floyd had
made nm attack on Gen. ltosecrans IN
Western Virginia, prove to be entirely un-
founded as later and more reliable infor-
nation from that section make no men,.
tion of any engagement, but that all was
quiet.
We have nothing important from Mis-.
souri,, the threatened rebellion, if Fremont
was removed, existed only in the brains Of
a certain cla's Of army buzzards men who
furnished horses, hay, oats, &c, nj enor>
nous prices. Ii was even threatened that
il Fremont was removed Western En-.
Pire would at once be formed, and that the
Administration would be made to shake
in their boots But il has been done and
nobody hurt, ,"-un,ess il is the army
contractors under Fremont.
Gen Hunter has assumed ful. com,
mand of the department of the West.
hut has nude an entire change OF
the Fremont programme. Price and Nc
Culloch are not half so near our forces as
they were said to be the day before FreS
mont was removed. The cool nights seem
to dampen the ardor Of both armies a lit
tle and Fremont's removal may keep of
a fight for some time.
The news from the Potomac are Il. i'm
portant. Gen. Mcclellan seems to be busy
making winter arrangements foy his army
Gen Bsauregard has left Manassas, and
gone South to look after the great Naval
expedition. Thirty five dead bodies have
been fshed out OF the Potomac, subjects
of Balls Bluff. .
The Naval expedition Inns suffered some
losses but to what extent is not known. II
appears that the destination of the fleet was
Bulls Bay, about twenty three miles south
ofCharleston, of but after arriving there and
making an examination, il seems that the
minds of the officers reverted back to
another celebrated Bh-Bull Run; and
profltips by experience they set sail for
Port Royal, about midway betN cen Charles
ton, South Carolina. and Savannah, Geo.
lbe fleet ha6 commenced bombardment
OF the place, and if cqptpred by our forces
VIII prove fatal blow to the rebels, as it
would be nearly equal to ihs occupation
