CINCINNATI. Oct. 1.-THE Commercials
Flsmingsburg, KY. correspondent says a mes
senger from HIilsboro has arrived stating
that a company of rebels, three hundred
strong, under command of Capt. Holiday, OF
Naples county, were advancing on Hillsooro
for the purpose of burning the, ,placeland attack
ing Fiemingsburg. Lieut.. Sadler and Ser
geant Dudley were dispatched with 90 home
guards to intercept them. The enemy was
found two miles beyond Hilsbero encamped
in a barn. Our men opened fire on them
causing them to fly in all directions. The
engagement lasted about twenty mirutes, in
which the enemy lost IL killed, % wounded
and % prisoners. We captured 127 Enfield
rifles and large number of sabres, pistols.
bowie knives and cavalry accontrements.
Our loss was killed and wounded.
CAIRO, Oct. 1.-THE pickets (six in num-
ber) of the Fourth Cavalry regiment, stationed
four or five miles from Paducah, were attacked
by large body of rebels this morning. Two
of them mortally wounded, and two ta-
ken prisoners with all their horses and equip
page. The enemy had divided their forces,
and in the excitement fired on each other, and
then fed each party taking the other for our
cavalry. A deserter from the rebel camp at
Columbus, KY, who arrived here to-d day. re-
ports that their forces at that point number
10000.
FoRTREss MONROE, Oct. 1.--Commodore
Goldsborough arrived here frow Wasiiington
this morning. There was an alarm in the
Roads last night, which was the darkest and
stormiest of the season. Two rebel steamers
came down doubtless with the intention OF
attempting to run the blockade, they withdrew
as soon as il was found that the squadron and
batteries were not to be caught mapping.

SUGAR AND SALT.-While the people of the
of salt, the planters of Louisiana are anticipa-
ting an immense crop of sugar. The follow
ing paragraph from an article in a Washington
paper, will give an idea of the sugar prospect
in ssthe Pelican State.'
HAll accounts from Louisiana concur in re-
presenting that the growing crop of sugar
promises vastly to exceed any crop before
known. If nothing unexpected happens to it,,
a crop of 100000 hogsheads, equal to seven
hundred millions of pounds, is anticipated.
The greatest crop raised heretofore was that
of1S53, when 449, ,324 hOgsheads were produced.
The smallest (of late years. was that of 1858,
when, through the combined effects of drought
and early frost, only 1896 hogsheads were
produced. Last year, the yield was 228, 1853
hogsheads, and the year before, 22l .830.''
If the expected produce of the present year
be not overrated, Louisiana might furnish a.
bout three fourths of all the sugar consumed
in the country for year to come; and as the
duty of two cents pound, imposed by the new
tariff, would add that much to the value of
sugar, it is easy to see what the sugar growers
of that State have lost by seeding from the
Union. Their loss in this article-for the
large surplus which they will have on hand
without market will greatly reduce its price
will not be less than S25 900, ,000 1t is quite
probable, that before another year is over, too
much sugar and too little salt, will satisfy sugar
planters that secession is a very expensive
luxury.

JOHN G. BRBcKINRIDGE sK. G. C.''-The
precipitate flight of John G.. Breckinridge,
without apparent cause. is fully explained by
letter from Paducah, KY, in the New York
Herald. The letter states that when the Fed
eral troops took possession of Paducah, a
'scastle' of the X. G.. C.'s was seized, wherein
were found some important documents. The
writer states:
"Among them are letters carefully filed from
Governor Beriah Magoffin, Senator John C.
Breckenridge, Gen. Gideon j. Pillow, Gen.
Buckner, Mr.. Representative Burnett aud
others, all of whom are thus proved to have
been members of this reasonable league, and
many of them file leaders in the movement.
copy of the proceedings of three meetings
of the National Castle was found, which lets
in several rays of light upon the strange con-
duct of Governors Harris, Jackson and Ma
Coffin, and the breaking up Of the Charleston
Convention; letter-or, rather private circular
from two members of Mr.. Buchanan's Cabin
ct, while yet in office, stating the number and
quantity of arms which would be in the South
ern States at the expiration of the term OF
office, and other information which will be OF
use when the rebellion is crushed
The seizure of these documents was kept
secret until several Of tie traitors had been
arrested. Three of them are now in Fort
Lafayette. Breckenridge got wind of his
danger IN season to escape, which is great
pity.

ANNA ELLA CARROLL, Maryland lady of
distinguished ability, concludes an article in
which she discusses the constitutional power
of the President to make arrests and to sus-
pend the writ of habeas corpus, as follows:
"The President. so far from violating, is he
roicafly defending the rights OF Americans in
arresting criminals who are engaged in secret
o. covert war upon this Government. Instead
of handing them ouer TO the courts for trial, con-
demnation, and erecation, as he has the clear
right to do so, and as every other Government.
but ours upon earth unquestionably rould, he
only holds them captives to prevent them
from destroying the blood bought rights
which every citizen who remembers he is a
rescue and defend

We have yet to get the army vote of JEFF
ferson county, and perhaps or otherVolunteers
from Clearfield, Elk, and Mexican counties.
The vote of Jefferson county is about HOO
less than at Curtin's election last year, and "a
bout 800 of these are in the army. The re-
turns yet to be received are expected to give
a large majority for McEnally aHd Wilcox,
but whether it will be enough to elect them is
uncertain Fully four -filths of the Volunteers
m the army from Clearfield county are Repub
lcans, and We believe this to be the case
throughout the district. As far as the army
returns have been received, nearly nine-tenths
of the vote polled for Assembly have been for
McEnally and Wilcox.
We understand that no election was held in
the company from Clearfield called the ssW ash
ington Cadets,'' commanded by Capt. J. O..
Lorraine. Some Democratic politicians went
on to their camp Immediately before the cleo
tion, of course to see which way the wind was
blowing. When it was ascertained that the
vote would likely be against the Democratic
party, we suppose some officer of Democratic
sympathies under the influence of political ad-
visers, decided to hold no election, and thus
deprive the soldiers of the right to vote. If
there had been any probability of Dem ocrat-
would have been held. If the Democratic
Assembly ticket has been carried this is one
of the ways by which it has been done.
