The election news from California is
truly glorious. TIE straigh out Radical

before It, 1t does not look as if the
Conservative" Unionists, had elected
solitary man 10 anything, although the
New York Herald and other organs of
that party confidently predicted that
they would sweep the State. This vote
is q reliable indication of the progress
of public opinion in opposition to all the
tricks of the pro-slavery faction. The

The capture of negro prayer meeting

correspondent Ga Sunday, while re-
connoitering the country, Col. De Costa
came across a negro prayer meeting in
the woods, where a large number OF
blacks were assembled for worship.
With his small party he fingered in the

the esrnestness OF the negro minister
tor God to hasten the coming of the YAM
KEGS and the Annihilation OF their white
enslavers. The Colonel then suddenly
made his appearance in their mi DIST with
his small party, and informed them that
their prayers were answered, and that he
had come TO deliver them. They hailed
him with shouts Of Joy, and, raising their
hands 90 heaven, called on God TO bless
their delivergr, Colonel De Costa in
structed them TO come 10 the shore i'm

their hands on. Shortly tho entire as.

Arrest Of = F0r1eer.

The career OF an accomplished forger and
swindler was yesterday brough 10 an end BY
the arrest and imprisonment OF Alexander D.
Cheatward alias Cheatham. sFbr some years
back the accused has been employed as clerk
in various establishments in Chs city, but at
the time Of his arrest was engaged in the
large auction house of Laniers, Tolleson L
Catlett. on Pearl street. Cheatiward has sue,
cessfully passed numbers Of checks purport
ing TO have been drawn by bis list employers,
and doubtless began to think detection impos;.
sibh, and therefore became holder in his opef
rations. On yesterday, howeyar, Mr.. Jacob
Ezekiel, who had the evening before cashed 2
check for $3.50, became suspicious that It
was . forgery, and Immediately proceeded 70
whose signatures were appehded thereto.

Brilliant Naval Operations.

/ Lieut.. John Taylor Wood, of the Confede
| rate Navy, with a command Ut sixty picked
men, left this city on Wednesday a week ago
on an expedition against the ensmys gun
boats in the Rappahannock. Arriving in the
lower end of Middlesex county, they quietly
awaited the opportunity for operations, which
was presented on last Saturday night. Two
Yankee gunbeats-the Reliance, propeller,
carrying one 30 FOUNDER Parrott and one ID.
| FOUNDER howitzer, and the Satellite, a side
! wheel steamer, carrying one 32.pounder
! smooth bore and one l2-pounder howitzer, and
/ each manned by crew of forty men--as they
lay in the mouth of the Rappahannock, off
Stingray Point, were the tempting prizes
which the expedition proceeded to secure
Embarking in four small boats, Lieut.. Woods
command pulled steadily and swiftly for the
tvs vessels.
The challenge of the watches on board had
scarcely died away on the midnight air be-
fore the boarders were clambering up the
sides of the two vessels, cutting their way
through the hammock netting which had been
triced up in anticipation Of attack, driving
the crews below and mastering the prizes
Three minutes finished the work.
They took forty sailors, and seven negroes,
prisoners, and two good gunboats, from which,
under their new commanders, we expect soon
to hear some good reports.
Lieut.. Hogue, in q hand to hand fight with
the captain Of one of the vessels, was wound
ed through the neck. His antagonist suffer-
ed severely in the passage alarms. Midship-
man Cooke was wounded through the hip
Among the prisoners are two deserters; one.
Davis, belongs both to the ship Patrick Hen
ny and the 55th Virginia regiment. Both
deserters. it is hoped. will get their deserts,
The affair is brilliant in its conception, ex
ecution and results, and reflects great credit
on all concerned.
Since the foregoing was put in type, we
have teen kindly furnished with the follow
ing copy of the official report of Lieut. Wood |:
C. S. SATELLITE, Aug. 22d, 1868.
