Three Days Later from Earope-AyrivaI of
the Persia at Ne,c York.
New YORK, Oct. Z.
The steamship Persia, from Liverpool Sep
TENDER 10Th, via Queenstown 9th ult, has ar
| rived.
The pirates Alabama, Georgia and Conrad
had been visiting ports at Cape Good Hope
They had captured the ships Sea Bride, Zala,
| Prince OF Wales and Santee, and burned them.
The Vanderbilt left ST. Helena in pursuit OF
the pirates August Goth.
| The channel fleet had left Liverpool, but
one frigate remained in the Mersey-reported
to watch the suspected iron rams.
Masons letter to Earl Russell, Withdrawing
from London, is published. 1t quotes his Ma
sOn's) instructions from Richmond, which
state that JEFF. Davis believes the English gov
eminent determined to decline overtures or
friendly relations, and will not receive a min
ister; therefore, it is TO longer conducive to
the interests nor consistent with the dignity
Of the Confederate government for Mason to
continue his residence at London.
The London Index says it is not contem-
plated to withdraw Slidell, his reception by
the French government having ever been
courteous, while that of Mason has been the
reverse.
The Alabama arrived at Table Bay August
9Th, capturing as she did SO the ship Sea Bride,
from New York for Cape Good Hope: also
captured vessel named Zala, making in all
fifty-six prizes. She left the Cape August
10th.
The Georgia put into Simons' Bay for coal
August 10th. She had captured and boarded
the ship Prince of Wales, from Valparaiso for
Antwerp, making her fifteenth prize
The privateer Conrad is now called the Tus-
caloosa. She captured and bonded the ship
Santee, from Akyab. The United States Con-
sui protested against the capture of the shin
Sea Bride, on the ground that she was within
British waters, and also demanded the deliv-
cry Of the Tuscaloosa, late Conrad, on the
ground that, being prize and not yet con-
demned, she violated the Queens proclama-
ton by entering British port.
The Governor decided adversely to the Con-
sui In each case, whereupon the Consul enter
ed a protest.
1t is reported that Prince Napoleon leaves
Paris for London on mission relative to Po-
land.
Latest via. Queenstown.
Liverpool, Saturday Euening-The pros
pect Of the fall of Charleston has much abat-
ed. The friends of the South assert that it
will not affect the issue.
The Army and Navy Gazette cannot per-
ceive what great military advantage would
accrue from its capture, certainly none equal
to the capture of Knoxville and Chattanooga
and Vicksburg and Port Hudson.
The Times to-day editorially labors to show
that exhaustion of strength is practically felt
by both combatants in about an equal degree,
and only wishes that it would induce them to
terminate strife.
1t is reported that Baron Gros informed Earl
Russell that the opinion of the French govern
ment relative to Polish negotiations, is that it
1t is preferable to close useless discussion.

NEW YORK, Oct. Z.
Newbern On. c. letter. of the 18th ut.,
to the Herald, states that a few days since
Capt. Schatier of the S5th n. Y, with small
detachments of the 10lst and 102d Pa, and
his own regiment, visited the eRemy's salt
works at Mays Head, Currituck, and destroyed
the works, which were supplied with wrought
iron pans, and about 100 bushels of salt. The
salt is procured from springs, which are
pumped out and the water thrown into watts, a
stones throw from the ocean. The enemy are
making about $50 bushels per night, sending
it across Currituck Sound in canoes to Curri-
tuck Court House, where it sold for $50 per
bushel One man can make ten bushels per
night Capt. Schaffer found no rebels, and the
works were destroyed without opposition.

From Richmond-The City easy of Capture
Almost Bread Riot.

NEW YORK, Oct. I.
The Times Washington dispatch says col
ored barber direct from Richmond, where he
has resided for the last eighteen years, and
who has been in daily contact with the leading
rebels, says that the battle of Chickamauga is
not considered by the people of Richmond as
success; that Richmond could now be easily
captured if the Yankees wanted to, and that
officers i'll the army had frequently said in his
hearing that Virginia would be abandoned, if
the army Of the Potomac should advance in
force. Many citizens assert publicly that they
will not offer any resistance in case Of an at
tack, because it would be utterly needless.
The people are daily sending their effects
further South in anticipation of the coming of
the Yankees. One day last week the State
guard was called out to suppress threatened
bread riot. Hundreds of the employees of the
Government with their wives and the wives
of soldiers assembled in front of the State
Capitol armed with clubs, &C., demanding of
the authorities relief for their starving chill
dren. An extensive riot was only prevented
by the prompt action of the State Guard and
promises of the State authorities.
The action of the Virginia Legislature last
Friday would seem to confirm the statement
that Lees force between the Rapidan and Pc
tersburg was only $4,000 men. 1t is sugges-
tive fact, mentioned by this colored man. that
Stuart has failed to get commission as Lieut.
General on account of his numerous defeats.

The CASE WELL PUT-Hon. John Sher-
man presents the issue made In the nomina-
ton of Vallandigham in the most forcible
light. "Here is a convicted traitor" he says,
nominated as the Democratic Governor of
Ohio. He is opposed to the Government
and opposed to the war; will not vote a man
to suppress the rebellion, and not vote a dol
lar to sustain our soldiers. And yet the Dem
ocratic party call upon the people to elect
this man Commander-in-C Chief of the army of
Ohio-and this in the midst of war with
the enemies of the country, whom he was
convicted of aiding"

day evening last, 9Th instant, the schooner G.
W. Dyer of Wellfeet, Pierce, master, bound
to Baltimore, came into that harbor, having
on board a man supposed to have been an es-
capped prisoner from Fort Warren.

ing a man came up out of the hold where he
had secreted himself, and on being question
ed confessed that he was a prisoner to the
United States Government and had made his
escape from Fort Warren. He told the cap
tain he was determined to effect his escape,
and offered one hundred dollars for a passage
to Baltimore. NO." replied the patriotic Cape
Cod man, mot for five thousand dollars shall
you have passage in my vessel, but shall
