Tobacco still commands fine prices, but, there
icing outlet for the article the warehouses have
become crowded with it to their utmost capacity.
We, at the instance of the inspectors of our largest
warehouses, would advise all planters who can pos-
sibly do SO, to hold to their crops.
In the nature of things the blockade can last but
a little while longer; and the moment the threats
of the Lincoln government are deied by the great
nations of Europe, tobacco will 60 up to greatly
higher prices even than the present. The crop
planted this has been small and this fact be-
ing well known, will produce, both in Europe and
here at home great competition for the commodity.

ARRIVAL OF THE FIRST AND SECOND OHTo.--
city that the First and Second Ohio Regi.
ments, which had marched in the van of the
grand army in its advance from Washington
upon Manassas, and had played their part go
nobly in the memorable battle at Bulls Run,
would arrive in the afternoon, directly from the
seat of war.
Soon after dinner, the military companies,
already in the city, with a band of music,
marched to the Depot to welcome their fellow
soldiers of the First and Second Ohio, and es-
cort them into the city.
large throng of several thousands of citi
zens, men, women and children, assembled at
point to the State House, eager to catch a
glimpse of the brave Buckeye boys returning
from the battle-feds of Eastern Virginia.
At length, after long and patient waiting, the
McCooK, and the Second, under Lieut.. Col. Ma.
SON, arrived at the depot, and were welcomed by
the cheers of the thousands there assembled.
The two regiments after partaking Of refresh
ments which had been prepared for them at the
depot, formed into line, and escorted by the
military companies of the city, marched to the
grounds on the west of the State. House, where
they received the congratulations of their friends
and hearty welcome back 10 the Capital of
Ohio, which they had left more than three
months ago, in obedience to their country's call,
to defend her flag and prove ohio's loyalty to
the Union.
These returned volunteers, in their bronzed
faces and stern countenances, bear the marks OF
exposure and hardship, but at the same time
show that they possess the mettle and grit of the
true soldier. They have learned in these few
months what they could not have learned in as
many years in camp at home. They have,
from all we can hear, both officers and men, so
conducted themselves in camp and field, as to
honor the State that sent them forth to do their
country's bidding.

From Louisville and the south.

LOUISVILLE, July 27.-The Richmond Wing
of the 24th, regarding the battle at Bulls Run,
says the enemy opened their batteries of heavy
artillery and small field pieces about 8 o'clock
In the morning. The enemy's force, as near as
can be ascertained, was at least so 600. Our
force was 10000. Men never fought more des-
perately than ours. The number of our killed
and wounded cannot be Observation-Disclosures

BY the cars last evening, JEFF. Davis returned
from the battle field. In response to the en-
thusiastic calls from an immense crowd he al
luded to the grand absorbing topic Of the day.
The enemy, with taxes they had been imposing
on US for 90 years, fitted out an army on mag.
nifcent scale, had to come over to Virginia
with ammunition, arms and Rmbulances, fitted
up in style and luxury, as though they thought
they were still taxing the South. Five or elk
hundred wagons of provisions of every kind in
abundance for the whole campaign. Their fin.
est Parks of heavy and light artillery were
now ours. They fed and left everything they
could throw away. The train brought lin 600
prisoners, and there are 900 more coming, in
cluding 65 officers. The probability is the enc
my lost 10000 men. Our casualties will not
exceed 1900.
The case Of the Commonwealth against
Green for killing Tompkins, after two days ex
animation of the witnesses, was submitted with
out argument. Judge Johnson said he did not

he had carefully examined the notes taken, his
opinion was that the killing was excusable, and
that the prisoner must be discharged.

About midnight last night, there was coils
ion between our pickets and the rebels in the
vicinity of the Chain Bridge.
1t was believed that Beauregard vas about to
attempt the execution Of his menace to break
fast in Washington, this morning, but upon the
return Of our reconnoitering parties from Fair
fax, all apprehensions OF an immediate attack
was removed.
A reconnaissance was made last night by
large force of cavalry and infantry in the direc-
ton of Fairfax; portion Of the party proceeded
as far as the Court House, and found no signs
of the enemy there, or on the route, except the
mounted picket guard, which retired at their
approach.
The withdrawal of the rebels from the vicin-

strength to the rumor that their main body is
proceeding towards Leesburg and Edward's Fer

the aid of the railroad from Manassas, dispatch
