From the Coast.

From private letter, dated Ports
mouth. Virginia, October 18Th, we make
the following extract: TNiHm iHHa
Nothing occurred to disturb our labors
until the LIST inst, when we received in
formation that Yankee steamer was
aground on tho eastern shore of Pamlico
Sound, and about forty miles from Hat
terms. Three Of our small steamers, with
three companies of our regiment, started
down to capture her. The newspapers,
no doubt, have informed you OF our sue
cess.
Three days afterwards, our Regiment
made an attack on the encampment Of
the twentieth Indian Regiment at the
same place, and drove them thirty miles
towards Hatteras. We took seventy-four
prisoners, all their tents, equipage and
munitions, the whole valued ut ten thou
sand dollars. On retreating, the Month
cello approached from the ocean, and
threw shot and shell at us for five hours.
Although the shell burst in every direc-
ton, not one Of our men was killed. We
would have captured the whole regiment
of towards, but for the difficulty of land
Ing our steamer from the sound. Our
steamer was unable to approach within
less than three miles of the beach. The
Indian regiment never meant to attack
us, but to run as SOON Us we should APP
proach. .' .'

The Federal Recruiting in Ken
tlIckV

The Northern government failing in all
other means to induce Kentuckians to
enlist to fight for the destruction of their
own liberties and to establish and perpet-
uate over themselves despotism more
absolute than that of Russia or Austria, is
trying to induce enlistments by offers of
eXtravagant bounties, advance payments,
and future grants of lands, But its prom
ises, extravagant as they are, are unavail-
ing. Recruiting in Kentucky drags. Its
regiments are untitled. Its Colonies with
out commands harangue in vain its pen.
stoned journals entreat and threat with
out effect? its agents 60 from house to
house Offering "bloo,l money" for soldiers
to fight against Kentuokians to ne pur-
pose. They can buy Colonies, and Majors.
and Captains in abundance--the rank
and file, like Glendower's spirits, will not
come at the bidding. The Homo Guard
would turn out for a few days TO guard
bridges? but they have no taste for bayo-
nets Of men fighting for their, homes and
the institutions of their fathefs--they cam
not be persuaded TO enlist for the war, for
one year or a few months even. SO may
it ever be.--LouisvHe Courier, l1M inst.

From Westprn Virginia.

A gentleman whoheft General Floydis
camp on the 10th inst, gives us some IN
teresdpg Information in regard TO the
movements of our army in the West,
some portion of which we are permitted
to make public. General Floyd, With his
command, left Big Sewell Mountain on
Sunday last, and was at New river, in
Raleigh. county, twenty-five miles dis
tant,) on Wednesday. His intention is to
get fight II possible, and will attack the
enemy wherever he encounters him. Ro-
sencranz has scattered his forces, and is
foraging about the country, committing
all kinds Of depredarions and outrages, in
which the Union' men are not spared.
A portion of his army is in Nicholas coun-
ty, and the remainder at Dogwood Gap
and on the Gauley. 1t is conjeotured that
General Lee may start in pursuit, but Of
this nothing is positively known. .,.
We learn with regret that one of the
most valuable men in Western Virginia
lost his life on Wednesday morning last.
His name was John Amick, and he had
rendered most important service to Gen.
Floyd in the capacity of a scout. His
house, on the Wilderness road, some six
teen miles from Meadow Bluff, was sur
rounded by about seventy Hessians, who
had marked him as victim. Amick,
nothing daunted, made an attempt to
dash through them and effect his escape;
but was twice shot through the body, and
MORALLY wounded. Ills loss is deeply re-
cretted by Gen. Floyd.

Legislative,


We find the following in the Sehate
proceedings Of the 2lst: b. .......l..,
MEMoRIALs-Senator Lane presented a
memorial from the citizens of Monroe
county praying for the passage of II law
for the destruction of dogs.
Also, memorial to change the lines Of
Monroe and Roane counties.
Mr.. Lane offered the following resolu-
ton, which lies over.
Resolved by the General Assembly of
the State of Tennessee, That the conduct
and reasonable movements of Andrew
johnson. Horace Maynard, Emerson Eth
eridge, and such others OF our public men
as have expatriated themselves from our
State, are regarded as alien enemies by
our people, and the infamy and turpitude
of whose offences merit the sovereign con-
tempt and public indignation of all good
and loyal citizens, as well also as the just
punishment of the law in such cases made
and Droyited.

Gen. Sam. Houston has Spoken.

Having read Washington telegram, in
the New York Herald, ir which it was in
timated that the Union" sentiment of
Texas was increasing, and Gen. Houston
did not sympathize with the rebellion, but
was living in quiet seclusion, awaiting
events, he comes out in ''card" and
''denies the fact" He says "the South
can never unite with the North, nor can
the North entertain any rational hope of
the subjugation of the South" The old
hero has some sense after all. He recon-
mends an armistice till the Federal and
Confederate Congress meet, when he
thinks the good sense of the people will
adopt some plan Of adjustment, and stay
the wholesale and useless slaughter Of
lives. THI sli N 100 HIri H'f'"l 10 -'

The battle ragged hottest around the
house of an old gentleman named Sharp,
near the center of the battle field. After
tho roar of the cannon and the rattle of
small arms had ceased for short time,
an old lady came out of the house, with

over and around the Dutch that lay, in
the yard, and near the fence, to hang out
the clothes. Placing her spectacles high
upon her nose, her right arm akimbo she
exclaimed, in a singular and doleful tone,

THE Next Great Battle.

The Fairfax correspondent OF the At
lanta Commonwealth, says: ...-... i...
The army of the Potomac, under COM
mand of Gen. Johnston, is composed of
two Divisions; the first commanded by
Gen. Beauregard, the second by General
Smith. Each Division is composed of
Brigades, consisting of or 6 Regiments
Of infantry, with proportionable parts of
cavalry and artillery. There is no want of
confidence in general officers here--the
army is prepared to obey all orders, with
out questioning them. and to fight with
the same yaior as heretofore. When the
hosts are again marshalled in battle al
ray-when the drum again calls US on
ward-and the roar of the death dealing
artillery again salutes the nations ear,
you may look for conflict, compared
with which Manassas is but bloodless vic
tory. Both armies will fight with desper.
alton; and in the next encounter many
noble forms will be Frustrated, many gal.
liant hearts will be hushed. No one who
mixes with the army can doubt the result.
The enthusiasm which a Just cause engen-
ders renders us ''invincible by any power
that can be brought against us"-the
whole army feels that we must conquer,
or else we are a race Of slaves more affect
than those who wear the Moslem chains.

The Traitors.

The following extract from letter to
the Cincinnati Gazette, may not be with
out interest to some few people in East
Tennessee. The letter is dated Camp
Dick Robson, KY, Oct. H." After re-.
ferring to the departure Of an Indiana
Regiment for another point, it continues:
Scarcely had the strains of the band
to whose music the Seventeenth moved
off. died away. till a procession of ill-clad
Tennesseeans came marching down, with
reversed muskets and saddened counte-
nances, following the rude coffin of ano-
ther OF their comrades. Not a day has
passed since have been in camp, oe.
lieve, that at least one was not buried
from the Tennessee or Kentucky Regi-
ments, and as yet there seems to be little
improvement in the sanitary condition of
their camps. Their hospitals are full to
OVERLOOKING, and more continue to be re-
ported as unfit for duty, and requiring
hospital attendance" -lf
The same letter contains the following:
distinguished Union men of the South
continue to make Camp Dick Robinson q
place of frequent resort. Horace May.

in maturing plans for the campaign" o

their confidence, and honored him with

friendship in the manner stated above
by planning and laboring to carry fire and
sword to their affairs and their hearth
stones. There may be pardon and hope
somewhere for Andy Johnson-but there
can be none Cor Horace Maynard.

Horrible Atroclty of the Linconites.

We are informed upon what we regard
as reliable authority, that last week two
prominent Southern Rights men Of Pa
ducah were brutally murdered by the
commander of the Lincoln troops at that
point, for no crime of their own but
simply in retaliation for the shooting of

victims of the Lincoln Government were
Mr.. Thos. Bell and Captain }. Davis
They were both shot, and our informant
states as a positive tact that the brutal
wretches who perpetrated the deed first
nailed Bell to the wall with large spikes
through the palms of his hands and his
flesh. g.Hs,-.t .af af enf.,I.t Do

From Bowling Green.

We have letter from Bowling Green,
KY, dated DIST Oct, furnishing satisfac-
tory information of the number and con-
dition Of troops at that and other points
on the line of operations Our friends
need have no fears for the success of the
Southern ca,se in Kentucky. The pre-
parations are ample. In a short time the
Confederate troops viii sweep like an
avalanche in the direction of Louisville
and Cincinnati, and the State be relieved
from the thraldom which some of its de-
luded and degenerate sons were trying to
bring upon it.
