Considerable changes have recently Ia
ken place in relation to the positions of
the rebel armies. There is no immediate
prospect of a battle the enemy taking
good care to avoid anything like gene
raj engagement. Late intelligence makes
IT probable his recent demonstrations
were feints to cover more important move
ments,. But for Lees sudden change of
attitude we should have had fight when
ever it is believed the advantages would
have been important to US
A number Of deserters recently came
within our lines; they represent the rebel
army scantily supplied.
The rebels have made several petty
captures Of late, including few officers.
No material advantage has been gained
by either side during the recent skirmish-
lug.
Early this morning some pickets of
the sixth corps were fred upon. The
attack was not followed up to-day. All

The New School Presbyterian Synod Of
Pennsylvania, now in annual session here,
paid their respects to the President to-
day. They were received in the East
Room. Their Moderator, Mr.. Rikman,
made short address, in which he stated
that the members of the Synod we're 10y
al men, and had the greatest confidence
in the President. His name had become
household word, for it was ever in their
prayers in church and around the family
altar. Dr. Brainard said:

sibility resting upon you which no man
has had since the beginning of the world
You have not only great empire 10

r. Nj. steamship City of Washington

this noon. She was boarded by the News
Yacht, and the following summary of her
news received, which is one day later:
Henry Ward Beecher addressed an i'm
mense audience in Exeter IL. London,
on the Goth, upon the interests of the
North, and the few expressions of dissent
were drowned in the general plaudits Of
the vast assemblage. The Daily News
says it was the most enthusiastic meet
ing ever held in London, and must have
convinced Mr.. Beecher of the truth of
Earl Russell's assertion that the great
body of the English people were with the
North. and cause him to return home a
messenger of peace and good will between
the two countries.
The Times combats Mr.. Beecher's ar
guments, and declares that he is not the
man to convert the British public to the
Federal cause.

In the recent assignment of the quotas
to the several States under President Lin
coins proclamation of Oct 18th, calling
out 800, 900 men, the deficiencies of the
States under former calls and under the
recent draft, are taken account of only in
reference to subsequent draft, in case
another is rendered necessary by the field
to furnish the full quota of volunteers.-
1t is presumed that there will be no
draft in those States which raise their
quota Of 100000, but in States where
they fail to raise their quota. the draft has
to be resorted to. All deficiencies at the
time existing in such States will be taken
into account. Drafted men and substi-
tutes are entitled to only the $500 bounty
provided by law, and not to the increased |
bounty OF $500 offered to volunteer re-

Brigade ofRebels Attempt to Desert.
New York, Oct. %.

A Chattanooga letter to the Herald
says that deserters continue to come into
our lines, Notwithstanding the extraordi-
nary measures taken by Bragg to prevent
them. Nine men, one commissioned
othcer of a Tennessee regiment, came in
yesterday. The officer, who is intelh-
gent and apparently honest, tells tale
which is cheering and inspiriting to all
good Union men, and which corroborates
previous information. He says a full
brigade Of Tennesseeans, with their Gen.
at their head, attempted to come through
to our lines in body one day last week,
and that division of staunch rebels was
called out to prevent them; fight Of a
sanguine character ensued, in which ar
tillery, musketry and bayonets were used
for three or four hours. resulting in the
overpowerng of the disconnected Tenn
esseeans, after some eighty men had been
slaughtered on both sides. The sound of
cannon was distinctly heard in our lines
at the time, but nobody could explain the
phenomenon OF the brisk fire SO close to
the enemy's rear. The officer says the
matter was hushed up, and has since been
kept so quiet that the extreme of Bragg's
army knew nothing definite about it.
Bragg's districtiLg of his Tennessee
and Georgia troops is perhaps an explain.

purpose of breaking through our lines in

moving down by way of Lynchburg and

driving Burnsides, force from Tennessee,

thus completing it retirement from Chat
