The Boston papers are publishing extracts
from letters from Brig. General Neal Dow, of
Maine, who has been stationed at Forts Jackson
and 81. Philip, Mississippi river, upon the con-
dition of slavery in Louisiana.
As 10 the institution of slavery, General Dow
considers il as virtually overthrown already.
"Indeed,n says he, "it is literally so everywhere
within our military lines. The slaves think
themselves free, and will not work for their
masters unless they choose TO do so, and unless
they are paid. Many masters now pay their
slaves, some ten dollars, some twelve dollars a
month, and some stipulate TO give them one
third Of their entire crop for their labor In saw

AN ACCOUNT OF THE FIGHT.

New YORK, Nov. 23.-The Herald of this
morning contains special dispatch from Hsr-
per's Ferry, dated yesterday, In which II IL said
our working parties were attacked this morn
ing near Halltown by the rebel horse troops.
General Gcary ordered six masked guns TO
open upon them, when they were driven back
at the first round, and shelled within long
range. Several men and horses of the enemy
were soon placed out OF fighting condition. We
did not lose man. s
CINCINNATI, Nov. 23.--Gencral Fremont has
arrived here, unaccompanied by any friends.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 23.-Accounts received
here show that Murfreesboro' has been evacua-
ted, the rebels retiring to Tullahomo. 1t is
said they are there fortlfying. Bragg's army
Is divided into two corps, under Polk and Hart
dee.
NASHVILLE, Nov. 23.-Gen. Davis captured
forty-three rebels to-day, fifteen Of whom were
scouting on Stones river. A heavy cannonading
was heard yesterday morning in the direction
of Lebanon, but the cause is unknown. The
rebels report that Bragg Is moving on Murfrees-
boro', instead Of evacuating. Letters received
here say JEFF. Davis requires Bragg to fight
every inch of Tennessee soil. Breckinridge's
division occupied shelbyville; the remainder Of
the rebel army were south Of Duck river, forti-
crossing the Tennessee river on Thursday. The
bridge across the Tennessee at Bridgeport Is
nearly finished.
NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-The Herald has Fer
nandina letter, dated the 10th instant, giving an
account Of the bombardment of st. Mary's by
the gunboat Mohawk and the steamer Neptune,
with detachment Of the Ninth Maine regi-
mcnt. Colonel Rich proceeded to St. Mary's
on the 9th, accompanied by the Mohawk. The
troops landed, and were fired upon by the reb-
els, one being dangerously wounded. The reb-
els then mustered strongly, and the Neptune,
with troops, left, whereupon the Mohawk fired
twenty shells into the town. The firing ceased
owing to a female, bearing a'fiag Of truce, ap-
preaching the ship. Lieutenant Durand went
ashore and communicated with her. On his
returning, Captain Hughes hauled off with the
intention of returning to Virginia. The rebels
fired volley Of musketry at the ship, one shot
grazing the captain. He instantly returned
abreast of the town, and kept up an incessant
fire for an hour and half. The town was re-
duced to ashes, and almost every house more
or less injured.
Previous to firing the second time, Captain
Hughes invited all the women on board his
ship, which invitation they refused. No guns
were aimed at the house In which they took
shelter. -
