The REBEL CoNFIscATIoN AcT.-The rebel
conhscation act is a measure of the most
sweeping kind. 1t declares all persons re.
siding in the North to be alien enemies, ex.
cept those living in Delaware, Maryland,
Kentucky, Missouri, District of Columbia,
New Mexico, Arizona and the Indian Terri
tory; and in these excepted States, those act
ing against the rebels are aliens also, and
any property or effects which they may own
in the South is forfeited. Even residents of
the loyal United States, whether citizens or
foreigners are to have their Southern prop
erty confscated. Receivers are to examine
attorneys and counselors, presidents and
cashiers OF banks, and the principal admin
istrative officers ofrailroad and all other cor
porations; all agents OF foreign corpo rations
insurance agents, commission merchants en-
gagged in foreign trade, agents offoreign mer-
camille houses, dealers In bills of exchange,
executors and administrators of estates, to
find out such alien owners, and every posi-
bic mode of reaching the desired informa-
tion is put in force. The rebel rulers don't
mean to leave a single dollar escape that
they can lay their hands upon. A conspiracy
against the Union, which begun in theft of
Government property, very properly sus-
tains itself by wholesale plunder of every in
dividual who will not lend himself to the
nefsrious schemes of these rebels.

whole were American, except 32l bales of
East India. The principal portion was con E
veyed in steamers.

The rate of exchange continues strongly in

Rebel Particulars of the santa Rosa
Fight.


FiSht.
BALTIMORE, October IL.
The steamer Louisiana arrived here this
morning, and brought nearly hundred pas.
sengers, including sixty from Norfolk, who
were permitted to leave by the Confederate
authorities, a large proportion of whom are
ladies and children. Before they were per-
mitted to leave they were closely searched,
to prevent the concealing of any newspa-
pers. One gentleman, however, who had
placed the Norfolk Day Book in his trunk,
escaped detection. 1t contains a dispatch
from New Orleans, giving an account of a
desperately fought battle between Billy
Wilson'S Zouaves and a thousand rebels at
Santa Rosa Island, on the 9th inst.
The dispatch says:
About two o clock on the morning of the
9th instant the Confederates commanded by
General Anderson, crossed the bay, and
landed on Santa Rosa Island, near Wilson's
Zouaye encampment, without being discov-
cred, drove in the pickets and stormed the
place in less than an hour. They destroyed
all Wilson's tents, with the exception of the
hospital tent, captured large amount of ra-
tions, equipments, stores and ammunition,
and spiked all the guns placed in position
Among the Confederate loss are Captain
Bradford, of Florida, and Lieutenant Neims,
of Georgia, killed, and Lieutenants Bugler
and Syre, badly wounded. The Confederate
force consisted of three companies of GeoI-
gia regiment, portion of the Mobile Conti-
nentas, three companies of regulars, de-
tachment of Mississippians and Georgians,
two hundred Alabamians, and a number of
naval officers and seamen, commanded by
Captain Brent, formerly of the National navy.
"Lieutenant4James E.. Slaughter, while
carrying a flag Of trucerfor cessation of hos
tilities, was badly Wounded. Major Israel
Vodges, of the National Second Light Artil-
lery, recently at Fortress Monroe, was taken

The Naval ExpedITIOn-PRTt of the FIOtilIa
Sailed Seventy. Eve Thousand Troops TO
GOA Ship-Lond of Water.
The great naval expedition that has been
in the course of preparation at this port for
some weeks begins to assume colossal pro-
portions. The steamers Cahaa0ba and Coat
zaeoalcoS called on Saturday evening, carry
ing the Rhode Island Regiment lately en-
camped at Fort Hamilton, besides force of
experienced surfmeu, with their boats. Yes
teIday morning the Star Of the South fol-
lowed, having on board Colonel SerrelPs En-
gipeer Regiment, previously announced as
having gone to Washington. This regiment
numbers five hundred men, all of whom are
practical engineers or mechanics.
During the day the transports Ocean Queen,
Eagle, Daniel Webster, Artel and Oriental
also sailed on the same errand. The re.
mainder of the fleet will probably leave to-
day. The transport Rhode Island yesterday
afternoon went down as far as Quarantine

vous at ANNAPOLIS, where it is stated the
number of troops will be largely augmented
including infantry, artillery and cavalry.
Among the troops who are to participate in
the expedition, are Colonel Wilson's Regi
ment, that passed through here last week,

vessels that will compose the feet, as many
of them leave other ports besides New York.
Among those that sail from this port, besides
the ones above mentioned, are the Va6ash,
flagship; the gunboats Ottdaoa and UaqdiLlG;
transports, Baltic, Atlantic, CdhaGbd, Van
