1T full review of the Congressional elections, confirms me in my original opinion that the Administration will have the next house of Representatives by a clear working majority, given to the opposition number of votes from the Border States which never will be cast with them. As things stand, the opposition have elected say seventy one, and the Republicans and Union Democrates nearly ninety with Ken lucky, Tennessee, part of Virginia, Connecticut, Rhode Isaud, California and New Hampshire to vote. Allowing that they get twenty out of all these States Ia calculation based upon the idea that the unconditional Union men will not carry man in either K Kentncky, Maryland or Tennessee. winch is calculation that never will be realized-and the required SIX or eight we shall easily carry in the coming elections put us decidedly in possession of the popular branch of Congress. We ought however. to get at least two Emancipationists in Maryland. two in Western Virginia. two in Kentucky, and one in Tennessee , and if our friends are not divided V. shall carry three in California, three or UT in Connecticut. and two in New Hampshire.- The Administration will thus have due margin left.
 GENERAL RosEcRASz has issued a congratula- tory order to his army, respecting the battle at CorInti. He states the loss of the enemy, in killed, at 1423 wounded. 5000. ard prisoners, 2.268. The Union loss was 3l5 killed, besides the wounded. Three thousand and three hun dred stands fsmall arms, 2 pieces of artillery, IA stands of Colors and a large quantity of equipments were captured by our men. Upon the issue of the fight, he says. depended the fate of West Tennessee. and perhaps of the opera tions in Kentucky. The enemy by their own showing, numb bered 10000 men. being double the number of our forces. Gen. Rosecranz con graduates h,s soldiers on having followed the enemy 40 miles with infantry and co miles with cavalry. and having been ready to follow them to Mol,le." if they had received orders.
 By the arrival of the Norwegian off Father Point, we have European dates to October 23 The Tiales thinks that If the Confederate Gov ernment shoulI resolve to sell 100000 bales ofcotton III Europe subject to all contingencies many speculators might be tempted into the speculation. The Times also argues from the condition of the American money market that the strength of the Federal Government is ex' hausted. TAe Daily Neus on the other hand, is of the opinion that the prospects of the On- ion wsre never better than they are at present. The same paper again takes up the defense of the Emancipation Proclamation against Tas Times. At m eeting at Oldham, resolution calling on the Government to recognize the Southern Confectionery, was declared to have been carried although the meeting was about equally divided. Fould and Persigny are said to have been prevailed npoa by the EmperoroI France to remain in the Cabinet. Garlba's health is in very critical condi1on. anl it wis appreliended that he would die from his wounl.

 THE Washington RepmLlica',. of Friday says :: From present appearances. we judge there will at present be no fighting in front. Lee and hls army will retreat upon Richmond, and go into WiHter quarters there. 1t is the purpose of Jef. Davis to lea our army on to divide our forces if he can do so conven ently and to har. ass portions of our army. One thing he mean> to do, and that is to put us to all the expense he can, and thus worry us out and make the North srn people thoroughly sick of the war; not to effect compromise. the Northern peace partly suppose. but to secure the independence of the South"
 Perhaps now that there has been change of Generals on our s.de, the Washington Repubk ean may have an opportunity to reverse it's ore
