SATURDAY EVENING, OCT. 10, 1861.

PRISONERS RELEAsED.-Fifty nine wound
ed prisoners, who we're captured at Bull Run
were brought to Newport news, Oct. 9th,
and released. They were released for the
reason that their wants could not be sup
piled. They report that there are about
5000 troops at Richmond that the rebel
army of the Potomac is supposed to num-
bor $780, 900 men, aud that apprehension OF
"a attack on the Southern seaboard caused
the greatest anxiety. Gov. Brown Of Ga. has
recalled Eve regiments to defend that State.
The rebel troops we're suffering greatly for
the want of medicine, clothing, and certain
kinds Of food. Articles cut Otfby the block
adc we're bringing fabulous prices.

TUE FOURTH REGMENT.--Mr. ID. w. Rid
ley returned yesterday evening from visit
to Camp Sigel, the bead quarters Of the
Fourth Infantry, near Auburn. He in-
forms us that there are now seven compa-
nies in camp, four Of which have their full
compliment Of men, and the others lacking
but two or three men each Of their mini.
mum number. Another fnll company. or
ganized In the northern part of the State,
was expected in camp yesterday evening.
The mcn are making rapid progress in the

The British Press on Me1ICH" Affairs
From the London Times.

From the London Times.l
The expectation that combined An9io-
French naval and military expedition Is " % "
j,nn,ediatelv organized, to obtain redress from
the indienities and injuries inflicted on brins1
and French interests in Mexico, IS regaIueu
With satisfaction by all who have watched the
painful consequences of the liberation so long
shown to the various governments IN that
country. It is reported that Spain also Is
earnestly desirous OF some respectable ADJUST
ment that may put an end to the preValihS
horrors, and the private letters last received
from Mexico reiterate the assertion tnat Ioreigh
Intervention is prayed for by the whole Popuia-
ton, with the exception OF the military OF Po-
litical robbers by whom the existing anarchy
has been created. Under the circumstances,
too II Is TO be assumed that the Federal Ca6i-
net at Washington will be disposed cordially to
cooperate in the work, so that it shall perma-
nentlV conciliate all rational claims. whether
the question is to be dealt with by the general
combination which seems thus in prospect or
by France and England alone, it is evident tnat
the possibility of further delay is at an end
(From the London Post ofSept. 13th.l
In our impression of the Sd instant we mem
toned in our New York accounts that naval
expedition was being fitted out of some magni-
tude by Mr.. Lncoln's Government, but that its
destination was kept studiously secret. The
latest advices from New York, in mentioning
its having sailed do not record where to. 1t
has transpired, however, that its destination IS
Mexico. 1t appears that recently the Juarez
Government had given permission to the United
States Government to march troops through
Mexico, in order to attack the Texan Seces-
sionists on their southern frontier. As in the
present state of American affairs and the help
less condition of Mexico, large American mil
itary and naval force to be landed there might
for various causes not to be thought opportune,
it is surmised that the contemplated interven-
ton by England, France and Spain may not be
altogether unconnected with this American
movement.

BATTLES on THE SABBATH.-A New York
religious paper, referring to Sunday battles,
says that the party who make the attack
are generally defeated, and cites the fol-
lowing well-known engagements in proof:
Montgomery made the attack upon Quebec
on the Sabbath, was slain, and his army de-
feated and turned back.
The Americans commenced the battle Of
Monmouth on the Sabbath, and were worsted.
The British began the engagement on Lake
Champlain on the day of God, and were COM
pletely overwhelmed.
They did the same at New Orleans, and were
entirely routed.
Bonaparte commenced the battle of Water
loo on the Sabbath, and he was defeated, and
his army almost annihilated.
And we now have another painful case to
add. Our forces began the conflict at Bull Run
on the Sabbath, and were defeated.
In battles the attacking army is as likely
to be defeated as the army acting on the
defensive; and Of the numerous Sunday en-.
gagements, it would be strange if few in-
stances could not be cited in which ihe ar
my making the attack was routed. Quite
as many Sunday battles as are mentioned
above could be named in which the attack
ing party were victorious. 1t is well for
soldiers. as for mechanics aud laborers, TO
rest on the Sabbath, but when il comes to
Gghting, one day is as lucky as another.

OVERLAND MAIL.-The Placerville News,
of The 10th inst. states that the overland
mail brought to that Office, during the pre-.
cedlng week, forty seven letter and one
hundred paper bags During the same per-
iod, there we're forwarded east from that
Office twenty-five letter bags, and twenty
four paper bags The quickest time yet
made on the route was by the stage which
arrived on Monday October 7tb which
made the trip from st. Joseph to Placer.
vile Ia sixteen days and nineteen hours.

EMPLOYMENT OF FoREIGNERs.-A Wash
ington dispatch of the 9th inst. gives the
following as The policy Of the Government
in regard to employing foreigners in the
military service. The statement is said to
be made on good authority;
First, no one has been authorized to enlist
or raise troops in Canada, as has been affirmed.
Second, no commissions have been offered, or
other overtures made, to military men in France
or other European States, as has been assumed.
Third, the Government has not rendered COM
mission to Garibaldi, as has been represented
in Europe.
What is true is First, that every foreigner
who has come with good character and Gre
dentials, and offered his services to the Gov
ernment in support of the Union, has been ac-
cepted, and no others are In the military en-
ployment Of the United States. Second, Gen.
Garibaldi being naturalized citizen, it was re-
ported to the Government by one of our Con-
suls that the General was contemplating a visit
to this country and that he had intimated, con-
ditonally, disposition to engage in the service
of the United States. He was aware that il
this was the case his services would be accepted
with pleasure, and that he would receive COM
mission as Major General, being the same rank
that was conferred on Gen. Lafayette, in the
war of the Revolution. Gen. Garibaldi, upon
consideration Of the subject, has concluded not
to offer his services at present, but thinks he
may pay visit to the United States soon.

REPORTED SLAVE INsURREcrIoN.-A dis
patch from Jefferson City, Mo-, of Oct. 7th,
says Information has been received there
that slave insurrection was attempted in
Jasper county three weeks before. Thirty.
five Of the negroes were killed, and men,
bcr Of others were to be hung, The discov-
cry of the plot proved that the iasurrecton
was wide spread and that the negroes In
tended to murder their masters and perpe-
trate all manner of barbaritieS

ANOTHER COMET.-A London paper, an ex-
tract from which was received by Pony Ex-
press, says; Another comet is now approach
ing the sun. 1t may be seen after dark, say
about o'clock. on a clear night, between the
consultations Cassiopeia and Andromeda, for
ming nearly central point between the stars
"Shedir, "Almach" and "Mirach." Even when
viewed through the telescope, it, as yet, exhibits
no tail, simply hazy luminous mass, with a
bright nucleus, from which am inclined to
think it is still very distant, as it was long ere
the receding comet, still seen through the tel
escope, lost its caudal apPendage, of which,
however, il is now shorn.
