FEDERAL AND REBEL PIcKErs Ex-
CHANGING ClvILlTlEs.-At Great Falls,
on the Potomac, few days since, the
Rebel pickets invited the members Of
the Pennsylvania Eighth to come over
and spend social half hour. About q
hundred accepted and were very polite
" received. The men ate and drank
together and had good time generally.
They exchanged letters from their
swcet-hearts, and several of the Rebel
ieutenants cut the buttons from their
coats and gave them TO our men. Que
Of the latter in return gave quarter
eagle, which the Rebel recipient said
was the first piece Of gold he bad seen
for many months. Nearly all OF these
Rebels we're badly of for shoes, and
their uniform, which was poor, Was made
of "nigger CLOTH" They stated that
they had no heart in this struggle, and
cursed South Carolina heartily, but they
supposed il must be fought out. One
Captain Weaver, of Berkeley county,
Va, was particularly affectionate to one
Of the captains Of the Eighth, but parted
with the promise to kill him when they
mes in battle array.
Since that interview there has been
no picket shooting 10 that vicinity. The
Philadelphia North american vouches
for the truth Of the above singular story.

rebels, killing one of them, twelve miles south
Of here, and brought oil the rest 10; they are
now prisoners in our camp. -.. r..
The rear divisions OF our army are coming up
to US by forced marches. Gen. Pope's and
Hunters commands are expected here this even

AL our troops are in the best Of spirits and
full of enthusiasm. ~. 81
Gen. Fremont has taken possession Of the
Aoaring mills In this country, and Is rapidly
gathering supplies for the army.
Price is near the Arkansas line; it ia doubt
full whether he will give us battle.
The rebel officers thought that the Body
Guard that made the attack was two thousand
strong, and on their retreat swore at their men
for set of towards. We got about sixty Of
their muskets. dropped In their flight. De-
Our advance is at Ozark, fifteen miles south
Of here.
Fifteen of the body guard were buried yester-

A Letter from FremOnt's Assistant
QuartermaSter.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. LIE. M. Davis, As.
sistant Quarter master under General Fremont
publishes letter in the Bulletin of this city
this evening, to Adutant-G General Thomas
making several corrections relative to himself
published in the letter Of General Thomas to
Secretary Cameron. He entirely exculpates
General Fremont from any concern with the
purchase of blankets, and says that when the
report of the board reached General Fremont
he expressed great displeasure and caused the
blankets to be returned. They were not con-
demned as rotten and worthless, and the only
fault that could be found with them was the
economy practioed in making them.
The average price of the blankets was one
dollar and forty cents. They were part cotton.
Assistant Q Qlartermaster Davis made the pur-
chase In his official capacity. He can only ac-
count for the misstatement from the fact that
while General Thomas was In ST. Louis he was
confined to his bed. That General Thomas
presumed from the reports he heard that ne had
the whole truth before him.

Last night an affair Of dlsgraceful and prob
ably fatal nature took place at Alliance between
some members Of the 18th Regiment and the
employees of the sPittsburg, Fort Wayne and
Chicago Railroad. We haynt been able 70
gather sufficient particulars to be able to say
which side is most to be blamed There was q
dance at the Eating House dining room, In
which several members Of the 18th Ohio Regi-
ment, which 10 encamped at Alliance, partici,
pated, together with number of the employees
of the above named railroad. A difficulty arose
between the volunteers and the railroad men,
which terminated in fight. The railroad men,
some twenty five In Number, armed themselves
with coupling links, bolts. wrenches, etc., and
the Eight was fierce and bloody one. Several
were injured on both sides. Captain Kirby, Of
the 18th Regiments, who is from Mahoning conn,
ty, had HE skull fractured by o bow from q
coupling iron and at the time our informant left
he was not expected to recover. zoe hsss j.

the eek will show aGy acquainted with this market
what be the condition OF things to-day. With
600 head, and these Of an unusual, heavy avarage
weisht and no demand for packing I'VE must say that
ihe price has held up wonderfully We average It at
decline Of 10 the several classes but The
age because the average Is much better than last week.
or any week since last spring. Cattle be bought to-
day below quotations.; we don't know how much; be-
cause sellers willing to accept almost any offer, rath
er than hold over with better prospect another week
Some, however, will be held over for they cannot be
sold at prices that owners will accept We have
several lots OF neat handsome Durham steers sold to-
day at leps than 10 for the net weight OF meat.
We have not the market so completely overlooked
any week for years 1t is this week, and We doubt
whether any saw as many pounds Of good beef
on tbs market as now. Estimating the bullocks this
week at only 700 average and It WILL give 07 900
as the weight OF meat in the ballocks sale since
Monday morning, and at 7c b, amount. to S301 SAG,
II our county friends think that New York stand
that PRESSURE and not have prices decline, they rather
overrae its strength; for beside the largest supply Of
beef had In week. We have an immense stock Of
swine and sheep and altogether We believe the largest
number of buchers animals ever sold In week In
this city. No wonder the price low, and that all
be readily sold The supply altogether above the

HEADQUARTERS OF TIE ARMY, ,(
WAsHIneToN, Oct. 81, (

To Hon S. Cameron, Secretary of War:
SIR--For more than three years l have been
unable, from a hurt, to mount horse or walk
more than few PAGES at time, and that with
much pain; other and new infrmities, dropsy
and vertigo, admonish me that repose of mind
and body, with the appliances of surgery and
medicine, are necessary to add q little more to
a life already protracted much beyond the usual
span Of man. II is under such circumstances, ,
made doubly painful by the unnatural and un'
just rebellion now raging in the Southern
States of our 80 late prosperous and happy
Union, that am compelled to request that my
name be placed on the list of army officers
retired from active service. As this request
is founded on an absolute right granted by
recent act of Congress / am entirely at
liberty to say that IL is with deep regret that I
withdraw myself in these momentous times
from the orders Of President who has treated
me with distinguished kinoness and courtesy,
whom know upon much personal intercourse
to be patriotic without sectional partialities or
prejudices, to be highly conscientious in the
performance Of every duty, and Of unrivalled ac-
tivity and perseverance,. And to you, Mr.. Sec
