Fine Fighting qualities OF the loyal
North Carolina Troops.

We find the following interesting spe
cials in the Missouri Democrat of Thurs
day:
KNOXVILLE, Nov. 4-The fight at New
Springs, under Lieutenant Colonel h
S. Smith, of Connersville, against double
their number of veteran rebels, com
manded by General Bob Harrett, proved
conclusively the fighting qualities of the
North Carolina Mountaineers.
After desperate contest of two hours,
the rebels were utterly routed, with a
loss of ifty-two wounded, and forty
seven killed.
Colonel Allen, Major John Wood6eld,
and Lieutenant Hyatt, influential and
malignant rebels, were killed
Our loss was three killed and nine
wounded. The gallant young Adjutant
OF the regiment, Augustus Georges, Of
Dayton, was shct through the heart.
Colonel Garrard, of 9th Ohio volun-
teer infantry, pursued the rebels beyond
Kingsport, through MERGERS Gap, on the
railroad. About half of the rebels are
beyond Holston, south of the river
6eneraI sanders has driven them be-
yond the Tennessee The guerrillas got
among our wagon and mail trains, but
no serious damage was done. They are
always whipped, rebel reports to the con-
trary Notwithstanding. The situation is
satisfactory.
The weather is fine, and the troons i'm
proving in health. But two sick, and no
deaths reported among the Ohio troops
for the week ending to-day. Capt. Stan
ley, 45th 0. V. l., died of his wounds,
and was buried with military honor yes
terday.

OCTOBER 26, 1868.
"There was one man in one of the
Louisville hospitals who voted Vallan-
digham ticket, but he gets well paid for
it. He was arrested and court-martial

the guard-house for twenty-one days.
He is taken out every morning and
made to stand on a barrel two hours,
with a card on his back, reading thus:
From God thou camest, but to the Dew
il shalt thou return. Besides this, he
has to saw wood ten hours each day, for
twenty-one days After his time is out
at Louisville, then he will be sent to
Chattanooga for heavier punishment.
The Courier adds editorially:

witness, that in the camps on the Poto-

Extensive Mining Operation.

The Thompson's Fla, Tunnel Company.
which organized and commenced operations il
May. 1857, completed their tunnel on the 25th
Of last month, having worked day and night
from the beginning of the work. in running
their bed rock tunnel until it was completed.
The dimensions Of the work are four feet by
five, and the leog;h of hard rock excavation.
200 feet The entire length Of tunnel and
aume is over three-foarths Of a mile The
fGme, through the entire length, IS twenty
seven oy thirty iaches. and viii run seven hun
dred working inches OF water. This large ard
costly operation opens up rich mining locali-
ty that has long been dormant. for want of an
outlet to work the plaoe7s,, Thompson's Flat

companies viii run their slaices into this tan

The rich mining ground that viii be worked
by this enterprise will last for years, and most
of it will pay at least fifty dollars per day to

After seven days run, with bat little wa

$500 feet from the head of the aume-six of

this tunnel, and some of the richest claims at
It's head
The success of this enterprise will act as an
incentive to Others. in opening up some more
OF the rich pacers in this vicinity. as the great
desideratum to be arrived at, is, to obtain an
outlet for fumes and tailings in washing the
rich dirt abounding in this immediate vicinity.
Ihe Idea that the mines are worked out about
mere, is exploded. The more they dig. the
more the miners or rrospectors find. The great
difficulty is, and has been for long time. TO

The Shadow of Coming Events.

If the New York Tribune is-as there is
abundant reason TO believe-the shadow Of
coming events as respects the policy of the ad-
ministration at Washington, that policy is
expressed in a recent article in that paper,
from which we quote:
Borrow temporarily on the best possible
terms. three or four hundred millions. to be
paid in at the rate of five millions per dav.
with clear understanding that we are to bor
row no m0re,-that the war is to be finished
with this amount, and that speedily 1t is the
never-ending prospect of loans after loans that
discourages lenders"
This is the policy of finance Here we have
the policy of replenishing the army:
Call out the uniformed militia of the loyal
States for three months and employ them to
garrison Washington, Baltimore, Cincinnati.
st. Louis. Louisville, &c, and to hold tie line
OF the Potomac and the Baltimore aud Ohio
Railroad, while every soldier now in the SER
vice Is sent to the front and employed in the
Gcfire work of the campaign"
And then:
Having thus massed our forces and filed
our depots and caissons, charge upon the rebels
IN every quarter assaing their ports with
iron clads, their armies with stronger armies
fighting resolutely but warily with intent to
capture their stronghods ard exhaust their
resources, while expeditions of fght.armed
black Unionists, carrying only arms and ammu.
milton, traverse those portions of rebeldom
most exposed and thickly peopled with slaves
carrying liberty to all who wish it, and arms
wherewith to defend it, moving RAPIDLY and
evading all fortified points and overpowerinr
forces, while breaking up railroads and tele
graph lines and making trouble generally"
And then:
g If three months more of earnest fighting
shall not serve to make serious impression on
the rebels-if the end of that term shall find us
no further advanced than IFS beginninc-i
some malignant fate has decreed that the blood
and treasure Of the nation shall ever be souan.
dered in fruitless efforts-I.ET Us BOW TO ORR
DESTINY, AND MAKE THE BEST ATTAIxABLE
PEACE"
Meanwhile
If the great powers of Europe shall see fit
to interpose, treat them with polteness and
most distinguished consideration. We cannot
be required to arrest the war until we shall
have substantially agreed on the conditions of
peace; We cannot be expected to consider any
proposals of mediation until they shall have
first been accepted by the rebels 1t tciH thus
be Nay or thereabouts before IRE can be fairly
asked 10 sag yes or no to any such lnterPositr0n"
We pass this programme over to the people
for their comment. Three or four hundred
millions more money, three or four hundred
thousand more lives, in a contest in which the
most malignant of the malignants lack conf
dence, and then, this further expenditure of
blood and treasure having been fruitless, foreign
mediation and the best peace We eau get!
Did ever desperate gamester more despe
rately play?

The GuAaDs.-The visit of the oroviIIe

The GUARDs.-The visit of the Oroville
Guards to Marysyille, to participate in the
celebration of the 22d, with the Rifles was
excessively pleasant. The Guards are loud in
their praises of the Rifles and the people, gen.
orally, of Marysyille. They were sumptuously
entertained as the guests Of the Rifles, and had
most excellent time. They were held in ar
rest by the Rifles until the afternoon of the
oath. and then were reluctantly released from
the agreeable custody of their hosts.
We have no doubt that the Rifles took a
notion that they had captured pretty good
thing inside their lines, and decided to hold on
to it. Look out, Rifles these same Guards
have serious intention of enticing you up this
way and getting you into =" Hockelty." Look
out for your buttons
From the tone of the Marysville papers, we
judge the day was properly celebrated, and the
Guards and Rifles were the chief object of at
traction on the occasion. The complimentary
notices Of the Guards, we are satisfied were
deserved, and they know how to appreciate
them. We hope TO see the Rifles up here
about the time of the completion of the rail-
road. BY the way, the Rifles and Guards
took ride on the road, so far as completed
at the invitation of Mr.. Binney.
