Heavy Firing at the Front---RebeI
Prisoners Arriving at Washing
ton--ImpOrtant Movement in the
Southwest.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Reports receiv
ed to-day from the front represent heavy
firing was heard yesterday and this
morning, as though occurring in the
lower part of Culpepper, out from KEEL
lys ford, at the Junction of the Rapidan
with the Rappahannock.
The Star of this city says: We hear
that Gen. Grant has telegraphed hither
that two of the most advanced positions
of Gen. Burnside had been assaulted.
and that the rebels had made prisoners
of one-half of the two regiments that
were holding them at the time.
1t was reported to-day on the authority
OF the Surgeons in the Army of the Pc
tamac that our losses on Saturday were
about 400, as stated in the Press. Tele-
grams last night say about 26O of these
we're wounded They arrived here this
morning.
The premises of the Old Capital Prison
are densely crowded to-day. Seventeen
hundred and thirty rebel prisoners, who
were taken in Saturday mornings en-
gagement, have reached here The off,
Ger from whom this information was re-
ceived saw few more on the way.
The Post has the following significant
paragraph from New Orleans:
=" We learn that the overland expedi-
ton to Texas has returned, and tie army
has before this set out in another direc-
ton"
According to the report, part of the
forces are to go to Brownsville, on the
Rio Grande, where their arrival will be
hailed with joy by multitudes of loyal
Texans, and where a small force will
suffice to put stop to an immense con-
traband trade.
As to the other point, nothing authen-
tic is divulged; but it is not improper.
we trust, to express the hope that its des-
tlnatlon is the city of Mobile.

FALLEN AMONG THIEvEs.-We learn
that an attache of the Suffers Depart
ment, in which our good friend, Jordan
Giles, is largely interested, recently fell
among thieves-Southern chivalry-
near Waterloo, Tenn, few days ago,
who relieved him of the stock on hand,
including horses, wagons, &c.
They stripped him of his money, hat,
coat, boots and most of his raiment and
turned him loose in strange land.
This is sample of the chivalry of the
South, capture man and then steal
from him his boots and his wearing ap-
parel
We do not know to what extent Giles
& Co. have lost, but to them the heaviest
loss is doubtless the horses and wagon.

Rose-hued View OF the Situation
STORYTELLING to be Done soon.


New YORK, Nov. 9.-The Tribunes
special says the next fortnight promises
the most eventfui news since the com.
mencement of the war.
The success of Meade, and recent op-
erations in Burnside's department, are
premonitory symptoms of gigantic con-
fict, in which the lines of battle will
stretch from Chattanooga to Washington
and Richmond. There seems TO be CON
certed action between the different ar
mics. The auguries are favorable. It
is true that Burnside is threatened both
from the east and west by large armies,
but he knows it, and measures have
been taken to thwart them. Grant s
supplies are uninterrupted and plenty.
Meade's army is believed to largely out
number Lees, and the result of battle
cannot be doubted.

h the interests of this city, and espe-
IDLY with the river interests, for nearly

Probably no man between Pittsburg
nd New Orleans is more extensively
n moref aYorably known to river men
md shippers than Captain P. G. O'Riley.
His long experience in the commission
and shipping business gave him exc ell
ent opportunities for forming such an
acquaintance; and his fine business hab-
S, his warm, social nature, and his high
ense of business integrity rendered such
an acquaintance desirable by all who
come in contact with him.
He leaves to renew business which
the war has disarranged and broken up,
and he bears with him the ardent desire
of all who know him that he may be sue
cessful, and, ike the patriarch of U, his
last days may be his most prosperous,
and that his stores may be increased
many thousand fold.
His family remain for the present il
