From Gen. sigeIs Command.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-The Star says =
awe have very late information from the re-
gion of country between the lines of General
Sigel's army corps and Gordonsville. Three
days ago, the only rebel troops occupying it.
were a regiment of North Carolina cavalry
and one regiment of infantry. They had their
headquarters at Warrenton, with pickets out
along the Rappahannock, and at times they
sent oHt small scouting parties in various di-
Teetiens. Culpepper Court House had then
ceased to be the railroad terminus at which
the supplies from Richmond for Lees army
were put on wagons They are now taken to
Staunton by rail, and wagoned from there all
the way up to Winchester This change was
doubtless occasioned by dread lest General
Sigel might cut off their trains, which he could
do if they continued to travel the road from
Culpepper Court House, via Sperryville and
Winchester ROW that his cavalry horses have
heen recruited
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 "A dispatch from
Fairfax Court House tonight says that Capt
KeSrneJ, just returned from a reconnaissance
to Leesburg, reports that the rebel Gen.
Mumford is at Purcellvilie with fifteen hun.
bred men and some artillery. Major Sted~
man, returned from an expedition to Thor
oughfare Gap, reports ~ small rebel force at
New Baltimore, and the railroad is in good
running order to Front Royal. The enemy
is actively accommodating. 1t is eredibly re-
ported that the rebels have two thousand cav
airy, with some infantry and artillery, at War
renton. No reinforcements have been sent

The Herald stiIl Romancing.

New York, Oct. 25.-The Herald has an
other Cincinnati dispatch stating that the gov
errors of Iowa, Michigan, Illinois and Ind-
ana, have gone to Washington to attend gu
bernatorial conference, and will probably re-
main over Sunday at Harrisburg, and thence
proceed to Washington with Gov Curtin. In
addition to propositions to be submitted to the
convention demanding change in the COM
mands of the eastern and western armies in
the field, vigorous prosecution Of the war, and
a change in the treatment of the rebels, have
it that propositions have been received in
Washington from leading southern men sug-
costing the holding of national convention
at which representatives from all parties of
the Union shall attend to consider the feasibil-
ity of settling the present difficulty. 1t is I'M
derstood that the south proposes as a basis of
settlement:
First, that the north shall recognize the
state rights doctrine of secession which they
claim to be founded in the resolutions of '98
and '99, written by Jefferson and Madison.
Second, that they return fugitives from la
Dor or pay their value to their owner. 1t is
also understood that they will accept the Crit
tenden compromise as a basis of settlement
relating to slavery in the territories.
If the governors don't sanction the holding
of such convention, then then they are to
unite in demanding of the president vigor-
Gus prosecution of the war.
There is a violent snow storm in Cincinnati
tonight Saturday.

New York, Oct. 25.-The Herald's special
dated Cincinnati 9th says, l have it on good
authority that the governors of the loyal states
are to assemble in convention at Washington
in the early part of next week for the purpose,
first, of demanding the removal of Major Gen.
Mcclellan and the appointment of a new COM
mander of the Potomac 2nd. The removal
of Gen. Buell. from the command of the army
of Kentucky. Sd. To urge more vigorous
prosecution of the war and an immediate ad-
vance of the army of the Potomac and the en-
forcement of the confiscation act and the
treatment of rebels in arms as traitors. No
more troops are to be furnished by the states
until these demands are complied with. Gov.
Morton and Yates were at Louisville to-day,
obtaining facts relating to Gen. Buells cam
paign. They proceed to Columbus to meet
Gov Todd tonight. 1t is understood that Gov.
Todd does not endorse the scheme fully,
while Gov. Morgan of New York, declines at
tending the gathering.
INDIANAPOLIs, Oct. 25.-It is believed here
that the N. Y. Heralds statement that the
governors of loyal states will assemble at
Washington next week to dictate policy to
the government in reference to army move
ments, is a canard. Gov. Morton is ignorant
of any such arrangement Governors Yates
and Morton went to Louisville few days ago
on business connected with the troops of their
respective states. Gov. Yates returned to
Springfield to-day.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 25.-TO Major GeN.
Halleck, commander IN chief Of the United
States Army, WGshiagtoa.-0u arms are
entirely successful again in northwest Arkan"
sas. Gen. Scofeld, finding the enemy had
encamped at Pea Ridge, sent Gen. Blunt with
the first division westward, and moved toward
Huntsville with the rest of his forces Gen.
Blunt, after making a hard nights march,
reached and attacked the rebel force near the
northwest corner of Maysville at seven o'clock
on the morning of the 22d inst, The enemy
is estimated at from five to seven thousand
strong.
The engagement lasted about an hour, and
resulted in total rout of the enemy, with the
soss of all his artillery, battery OF six-pound-
ers. large number of horses, and portion
of their transportation and garrison equip
ments. Our cavalry andlight howtzers were
still in pursuit of their scattered forces when
the messenger left. Our loss was small:
Gen. Scofeld pursued Gen. Hindman beyond
Huntsville, coming close upon him, when his
forces fled precipitately beyond the Boston
Mountain. Allthe organizedforces of the rebels
have thus been driven back to the valley OF
the Arkansas river, and the army of the from
tier has gallantly and successfully accomplish
ed its mission.
