NEW ORLEANS. Oct. 10,

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. Is, 1861.
FRIEND BoswORTH-I have no special news to
send you which may not be found in our city pa
pers. We have been jubilant for three days past
over the gallant attack by Com. Hollins, with his
:. musketoe feet" on the Federals, at the Head
of the Passes" Saturday morning last. The
affair was g perfect success, sinking the Preble
I6 gun sloop-ofwar, driving the other vessels out
of the river, and giving the Federals such scare
that they will be likely to keep out for the future
The Manassas" or " Nondescript," or what
ever it is called, has proven a complete success
Being the first experiment Of the kind ever attempt
ed in naval warfare am gratifed that our South
ern people have the credit of developing so cheap
(the entire cost of the vessel did net exceed sl2
000) and reliable mode of protecting harboTs from
an enemy's feet. With one of these floating
a Rams in each Of our principal harbors, we can
defy Old Abe with his five hundred ships of war
and his hundred thousand men.
The :. Manassas was designed and built by our
fellow citizen John Stevenson, Esq. To his energy
and perseverance are we indebted for this new mode
Of protecting ourselves and furnishing enemies.
. Let Us leave the war little while, and take a
look at cur commercial affairs.
The annual statement of our commerce pub
Ished on the LIST of September contains many items
that are interesting to our Southern people. The
aggregate value OF q prodace received from the IN
terior'' amounts to sl56 900 Geo. An analysis OF
the table of receipts deyelopes some cnrious and
valuable facts. Our Southern staples form much
the larger portion in value, as viii be seen by the
following table i-f

secession on the Ohio.

On Wednesday last, as the I'd Kentucky
regiment were passing up the Ohio river,
destined for Mount Pleasant, at the mouth of
the Kanawha, they were notified to prepare
for troulous work a9the town of Guyandotte
q secession hole ten miles above Burlington,
o. The boats accordingly lay by until Thurs
day morning, when the troops were landed
half mile below the town and marched
into it. The rebels were seized with their
inveterste habit of running, and left the
town upon the opposite side at double
quick. Some of their property was found
behind them. A correspondent of the Gin
cinnsti Commercial says:
A pretty incident occurred this morning,
when the troops took possession of the place.
a number of small boats started Immediate
ly from the opposite village of Proctorsville,
Ohio. In one of them was a uniformed
Home Guard, their colOr-bearer being a Ia
day, who, after they had landed, approached
Company D, Woodward Guards with her
companions, and presented them with the
splendid flag in her hand. Her story is the
same trite tale of persecution and menaees,
which is driving thousands away from peace
ful homes-as it had driven her. Her name
is Mrs. Caroline White, poor miliner of
this place, and her only crime an uncOn-
cesled devotion to the Union. The boys,
(whO were in high glee with their active
service) vented their thanks in vociferous
cheers, and each one shook hands with the
old lady, and received her Blessing.
Some three miles back of Guyandotte, the
boys encountered a German family, who
greeted the blue-costs with the greatest joy,
the leaoing TeutOn observing that " now he
could holler."

More About Gov. Wise.

Mr.. Star, of Mason county, who arrived
in this city last evening, reports that il is
reliably ascertained that Henry A. Wise, if
not actually dead, is 50 badly wounded that
there is no danger Of his recovery. Wise
and his body guard, as before stated, were
going to fill an appointment at Sissonsville.
Some iorty Union men, who not feeling safe
at their homes, had been spending most of
their time in the woods, armsd with o,dina-
ry rifles, heard Of Wise's coming. and secret
ed themselves-ambuscaded in the regular
Eay-and upon their approach, each man
fred at bis man, when the assaulting party
retreated to the top of high hill. Patton,
together with about thirty or forty Others,
were seen to fall. The Union men, after
reaching the top of the hill, saw those who
escaped carrying of the dead and wounded.
Several persons recently arrived from
Charlestown, say that there is no mistake
about Wise being wounded, and IS he has
been suffering from disease, it is supposed he
cannot recover Wheeling Ihtslligeneer.
