Ohio, passed through here this morning en-
route for Erie, to defend that city against
invasion They were undsr comnAnd Of
Captains J. L. Dean, Hamilton Eaton, Aa-

commanded by Captain Burton and Quarter
master Dodd, late of the Artillery Ofths Pc

looking set Of men.
The Buffalo Courier has the following in
reference to matters there: ...a
For the information Of any rebel or other
refugees in Canada il may be proper to men
tion that Buffalo is entirely defsneeless. We
have two regiments of militia here, both OF
which have seen service, and third in the
country, which would be aYsilabls in an
emergency. The Arsenal is not destitute Of
riAed cannon and ammunition, and, il the
refugees will give us reasonable notice, they
will meet with spirited reception. We
don't really expect them; but will try not to
be OutdOne in suitable courtesies should they
pay Us a visit. ~
The proceedings of the Toledo Common
Council in the matter, are thus reported By
the Blade;
After some discussion, resolution was
adopted requesting the Mayor and Police
Committee to charter Immediately fast tug
to patrol the Bay and head Of the lake aslong
as may be deemed necessary. The Mayor
and Police Committee were also authorized
to increase the police force Of the city for
service on the docks aud at the depot, Il be
them considered sxpedient. -a

STANDARDS BATTERY,

Now commanded by Lieutenant Norman
Baldwin, assisted by Lieutenant James Hill,
is stationed here, though without horses, as
the scarcity Of forage has compelled the re-
moval Of nearly all animals to Stevenson,
Alabama, to which point corn is transported
by rail. I noticed on the banner Of this
justly popular battery the following signif-
cant legend, "Wild Cat, Mill Springs, Perry
VILE, Stone River, Chickamsuga" This
laeonic record marks E brilliant history.
Captain W. E. STANDARD, lats Of General

physical disability. The sanitary condition
Of the men in this command is excellent.

The Grand Jury of the November Term.
for 1868, in accordance with certain require
ments Of the statute and the charge Of the
Court, have together visited the County Jail,7
and take pleasure in reporting that We found
1t in neat and cleanly condition, and the
Sheriff entitled to much praise and commend
alton for his faithful compliance with the
rules and regulations prescribed for the gov
ernment Of the Jail, and that his Deputy, the
present Jailor, has spared no pains to make
the inmates as comfortable as could be sx-
pected under the circumstances, and is there
fore deserving Of special eommendation. 7
Aud further, the Grand Jury, after close
examination Of the locks on the doors Of the
Jail, would recommend that the Commis-
sioners Of the county cause the locks 70 be
put in order Immediately. We, the Grand
Jury, deem it our duty to state that from
satisfactory testimony the Commissioners
have discharged their duty with honor to
themselves and the people they represent.
Also the Sheriff and Jailor, notwithstanding
if the locks had been repaired ss the lock-
smith was directed by the Commissioner,
and the Turnkev had taken a little more pre-
caution, the escape of the prisoners would
not have happened in our opinion. 5E

NEAR CHATTANOOGA, Nov. 8th, 1868.
Having satiatsd the all devouring appetite
of that august parsonage the censor, who with
divers witches Of his ugly phiz, cuts and
slashes manuscript in a very i'll bred manner,
an permitted to dive into some details of
the minor organizations of this army, in
which many of your readers have an inter
est. Nearly all the Ohio batteries were raised
in the bracing latitude Of Cleveland, where
cherished friends are anxions to know their
condition, therefore deem it not uninterest-
ing to report the relative situation of all
NORTH OHIO BATTERIES.
The gross mismanagement Of artillery
heretofore attached to brigades, owing to
the ignorance of brigade commanders Of
that branch, has suggested a remedy. At
Stone River and Chickamauga several Of
our best officers and batteries were captured
because they were improperly posted and in
sufficiently supported. The French mode Of
organizing artillery into a corps by itself has
been adopted, and the first division, COM
manded by Colonel James Barnett, consist of
batteries A, (GOOdspsed's,) B, (standart's,)
G, (Southwick's,) g, (Marshal's,l F, Cock
relPs,) and NJ, (shultz's) of the 1st regiment
Ohio artillery, with the 18th and 10Th inde-
pendent batteries.
GOoDsPEED's Battery
is considerably divided, two sections being
at Cottonsport, fifty miles up the river, in
charge of Lieutenant Scoville, aud one at
Sale Greek, thirty miles above here, under
Lieutenant Day. This battery suffered more
in tho recent battles than any other en- gagged.
In addition to the list of casualties already
published, are Jesse Leonard, Henry Isbel,
and William Dutton, wounded and since
died. Corporal A. Mahon, privutes J. T.
Mckee, NJ. Latham'and W. Mahon, wound
ed, doing we'll. ]. Robinson, Henry NJ. Da-
wilson, c. Allen and Allen Barns are rusti-
eating someShere in Dixie as prisoners.

COUNTIES UNDER THE NEW CAI.-Though we do not expect the new levy will he filled for the sake of the liberal pay and bounty offered but by reason of patriotic willingness to serve the country and to fight in it's defense. yet it is proper that they who do go and reinqui sh that labor at home by which their families are supported, should be literally paid.
 The bounti,s offered by the government arc certainly liberal. In addition to the month s advance pay upon enlisting, the volunteer re- ceives from the United States, over and above his regular pay, bounty of $302. If veteran volunteers are included in this call they receive these sums whether they serve the whole three years or arp discharged by the termination of the war before the three years expire.
 In addition to these national bounties, the state of Connecticut pays every volunteer from this state $50 per year. If he is married the state gives six dollars per month to his wife two dollars per month for every child under fourteen years of age, and in case there shall be child or children and ID wife, then six dollars per montl to the younger child, and two dollars per month to each additional child under fourteen. provided tEe whole amount tc one family shall not exceed ten dollars per month.
 We hope to see organizations at once sci on foot in every town to assist in raising these troops They must be had, and they can be had easily if there is the proper public spirit about It. Let every man make 1t his individu al business.-Harttord Press.

 A RIVER BAss.-rwo men by the name of Smith, of Warehouse Point, went Il fishing one day last week, with cane pole and small hook and line, on the Connecticut river. They got bite from fish too big for the tackle, and let it go, following the pole, as the fish circled about it, till it became exhausted. They then hauled in and safely landed river bass. weigh ing twenty and one-half pounds The artesian we'll on the grounds of the late Col. Colt, continues to throw up steady. un- failing stream, at the rate of ten or twelve gal Ions a minute, it is stated. The pipe goes down to depth of 24211z feet.

THE ATTEMPT TO DESTROY THE IRoNs1pEs.

The Port Royal (South Carolina) New South of October leth, gives this account of the reb- els attempt to blow up the frigate Ironsidcs
 On Monday night last. while lying at her usual anchorage. the frigatc was approached by nondescript craft, evidently from the har bor of Charleston. The stranger was hailed by the officer of the deck, but no response was given. The stranger came crushing on and just before striking the frigate. fired voIey of musketry, which wounded the officer of the deck on duty. An instant afterwards she struck the frigtte's bow, and a tremendous explosion foowel. The torpedo which the strange craft had attached to her stern was evidently one of great magnitude, as the shock was fearful, and the column of water thrown up and displaced far greater than that which any other eontrivance has yet been able to lift. But iustesd of destroying the New Ironsides, the rebel craft was herself blown up and sunk through the very means by which s he had hoped to destroy the most elective vessel in our navy. Of the crew of the rebel vessel two Were captured-one Lieutenant and the other a seaman-and the rest were drowned. The damage to the noble frigate is said to be slight"

COLORADO TRUE In other times, newly organized Terrilory-in fact any Territory was expected to go what was called Democrat ic as naturally and uniformly as 8 young into the Union after season of Territorial tutelage, "Democratic." But the war for the Union has changed all this, and now almost or quite every Territory elects "Union'' Legislature, &c., over the tickets labeled 'Democratic." Nevada went overwhelming ly Union few weeks ago; Nebraska did the same Tuesday week, and Colorado did like wise at her recent election, A letter in the Morning Herald, St. Joseph, Mo. says
 "DENvER CITY. Oct. 3. 1863.
 :" The Territorial Election which came off on the lst ult., albeit it was hotly contested ali oyer the Territory, resulted in a uniform unconditional Union victory. But one Cop perhead was elected to either House Many sage calculations on the influx of sympathiz CTS and refugees from your State have proven fallacious. Loyal emigrants out.numbered them, or they let the election go by default At all events, we have clean Union Council, House and Territorial officers from County Judges down to Constables glory enough for one season. It is confidently expected that the next Legislature will be the last, under our present organization, as the ensuing Con gress will doubtless pass an Enabling act, un- der which Colorado will present herself for admission into the Union on the first Monday of the ensuing session. The people are ripe for it."

No passenger was very seriously hurt, and the conductor, ex- press-man and brakemen, though considerably bruised, are hot dangerously SO. The owner of the COW ought to pay well for his careless ness of human life; but he will probably sue the Railroad Company for damages!
