NEW YORK, Oct a.
The Times Washington dispatch says it is
now ascertaned that portion of Ewell's corps
has been dispatched from Gordons vile by rail
to resist the advance of Gen. Burnside to
Lynchbnrg.
Gen. Burnside is actively engaged with
large force of mounted infantry destroying
the rebel communications. No fears are en-
tertained for his safety
The damage TO the Orange & Alexandria
Railroad will not be repaired short of four
weeks. The cost Of the repairs will be $780,
900 per mile.
The War Department has decided that Shak-
ers aud other sects protesting conscientious
scruples against performing military duty, are
liable TO the draft, and if they won't light they
must pay. In these cases Communication mon
ey will be q lien, and levied upon the common
property of the sect
The Worlds dispatch says Gen. Meade, not
being able to get through his business with
the President in time, did not return to the
front until this friday morning. 1t is au-
thoritativc!y settled that he is not to be super
seeded.
The Herald's dispatch says: "Gen. Meade
had lengthy interview with the President
yesterday, and gave a full and manly state
inent his views in regard 10 matters in front
Gen. Meade did not hesitate TO comment
with his usual characteristic fiankness upon
the peremptory restrictions lately received by
him to compel Gen. Lee 10 accept fight,
which not having been able to carry out to the
letter, he declared himself willing and ready
to resign his command.
The President declined to entertain any
such proposition, and Gen. Meade has gone
back to his post, carrying with him the salts
faction of having deserved the confidence re-
posed in him.

Advices from Gen. Ewing's expedition in
pursuit of Shelby's guerrilas, are received
After marching seventy-six miles in twenty
four hours, Ewing reached Carthage on the
morning of the 18th inst, where he expected
to encounter Shelby's whole command, but the
latter passed there the previous night for Ne
osho In the evening a company OF thirty
men were sent out to collect straggers, and
they were captured with their horses, arms
and equipments. Among the prisoners cap
tured are Maj Pitcher and other officers and
men OF seven different Missouri regiments
Throughout tho pursuit, and especially during
the last fifty miles OF the trail, the roads were
found to be lined with Shelby's broken dow n
horses, stolen fresh ones having been substitut-
ed in their stead. Shelby has no transporta-
ton or artillery. and keeps no road, rendering
pursuit of him at night very difficult Re-
ports from scouts and other parties prevail

A meeting of the Board of Trade was held

NEW YORK, Oct. "a.
The Posts Washington letter says Dis
patches received here give reason to believe
that the quiet at Charleston is soon to be
broken. The gossips, who just now are re-
moving every conspicuous General, are med
ding with the name of Admiral Dahlgren. 1t
is reported in certain quarters that he is TO be
removed, and Capt Hartley advanced to the
command of the squadron. The story seems
improbable, and, perhaps, it grew out of GER
tain movements of Admiral Dahlgren, which
will be understood hereafter.
The rebels recently had lively time over
