Capt. Fisk's Party all Safe.

A St. Paul despatch of the 22d inst.
says: 1--WE have intelligence to-day
which contradicts the reported massa-
Gre of Capt. Fisk's party. A letter
has been received from Bannock City,
Idaho, dated Sept. 22d, which says
Capt. Fisk's party arc within three or
four days march of this place, all safe
and sound This is later than the
time when the reported massacre took
place, and is considered as conclusive
evidence of their safety. The letter
does not state how this news was re-
ceived but as a receipt Of letters
which were sent to Fort Benton some
months since is acknowledged, il is in.
ferred that mail carrier from that
Fort to Bannock City passed the expe
ditiou short distance out.D

From Virginia.

Information from the Army of the
Potomac states that Kilpatrick's CAV
airy Division had pushed back Stuarts
cavalry beyond Gainesville toward
Warrenton and that our troops are
moving steadily onward in two col
umns. In the engagement ON Monday,
our cavalry drove the rebel cavalry
from Gainesville to beyond Buckland
Mills, five miles westward, when a
rebel line of battle-infantry and ar
tillcry, at least a mile long-was en-
countered. General Davis's cavalry
brigade and battery were at one time
entirely cut off, but he succeeded in
extricating himself. We lost about
zUO in killed, wounded and missing,
together with several wagons, one Of
which contained the official papers of
the brigade. 1t is asccrtained that a
portion Of Ewell's corps has been dis
patched from Gordonsville, by rail, to
resist the advance of. Burnside tow
ards Lynchburg.
1t should be borne in mind that
Burnside has large force of mounted
infantry engaged in destroying the
main rebel railroad communication
with the Southwest. No apprehen-
sions are felt for Burnsidc's safety.
