OPERATIONS OF GENERAL DANA.

New YORK, Oct. 1.-THE New Orleans
correspondent of the Herald gives the follow
ing account of an engagement near the Atcha-
falaya river
1 lowing to the illness of Gen. Heron Mai
Gen. Dana has been appointed to the COM
| mand. AS the enemy were found to be of
| great strength and in good position on the OPP
| posite side of the Atchatalaya, the commanding
| general thought it advisable to throw up en-
| trenchments, and while the larger portion of
| the troops were terrifying the levee, Lieut.
| Col. Lake of the 2UtE Iowa was ordered 10
| proceed some five or six miles IN advance.
He was accompanied by portions of the 18th
Iowa and Goth Indiana together with $50 cav
airy and a section of artillery.
Early on Wednesday morning the whole
force of the enemy, consisting OF Green's,
Marton's and Majors brgades, succeeded in
quietly crossing the Atchatalaya and passing
between the main body and Col. Leakes COM
mand, which was completely Outfianked and
cut OH, before the movement was discovered.
Leake drew up his men in line of battle and
gallanily prepared to give the advancing foe
warm reception. A sharp fight of nearly
half an hour occurred, in which our troops
fought bravely against overpowering numbers
but as the end of that time they were COM
PEELED to surrender, the rebels having almost
entirely surrounded them. With the excep
ton of the cavalry, the whole were taken
prisoners, and the gnns captured. The cav
airy, consisting of detachments from the 9th
Missouri, and the Goth and LIST Illinois regi-
ments, succeeded in making their escape.
The prisoners, officers and privates, num-
oered four hundred and eighty. We captured
lieutenant colonel and twelve men. Mai.

New YORK, Oct lO.-Speaking of rebel
prisoners sent north by the Evening Star, the
New Orleans Era says :-"These are the re-
mainder of the Port Hudson prisoners, who
have been enjoying the Inequalities of the
city since the fall of that stronghold. They
leave us in better condition than we found
them. The best feeling prevailed when the
blue and gray coats separated. We believe
their present destination is Boston harbor,
where they will be detained in one Of the forts
till exchanged"
CAIRO, Oct l0.-The rebels, under Gen.
Lee Of JohnSton's army, are said to be col
lecting near Columbus, Miss, where the reb-
els are said to have extensive iron and earth

clamation protesting against the seizure OF

New York, Oct. 1.-THE Herald's cor
respondent at Saint Martin, West Indies,
writing on the l4th of September, says. that
the emancipation of the slaves by the Dutch
government, which took place on the lst of
July last, was likely to rum the neghboring
island of Saint Eustatia, AS the whole OF the
emanripated population were likely to leave
it. At St. Martin the measure produced little
change. severe drought had prevailed at
St. Martin, and the next sugar crop would be
very scanty. a large numUer OF live stock
/ had died. Salt was in full supply.

Battles with the Indians.

New YORK, Oct l0.-A correspondent of
the Missouri Democrat, writing from Dacotah
territory gives the following account of three
days lighting with Indians. Gen. Sally met
the Indians, about 2500 strong, on the first
OF September, something like two hundred
miles north Of Fort Pierre, where an engage
ment ensued. The Indians were ovprinuled
by part of the 9th Iowa cavalry about six
O'Clock P. NJ, which occupied about two
hours in deplOyng about the enemy in various
ways, patiently awaiting the command. The
enemy were under cover of a ravine running
north and south.
The general formed section of his force
and the battery on the north; the 9th Iowa
tell in line of battle on the east side of the ra-
vine; and tine I'd Nebraska cavalry on the west
side. The latter regiment opened fire on the
enemy Immediately, which was kept up till
night set in. The I'd Nebraska, after the third
round, advanced to within 80 yards OF the enc
my, and poured round after round into the con-
glomerated mass OF Indians, squaws, papooses
and ponies and dogs, the mingled noises of
which was almost hldeous. The Indians all
fought like demons but overshot us. 1t is
estimated that their loss of personal property
Is greater to them than the destruction of New
\ Ork city to the United States. Three hun
dred killed were found on the field, and the
wounded are nnumerabe Our losses thus
far have been about forty in killed and in
wounded.
On the 18th our scouts overhauled the enemy
several times which resulted in spirited fights.
On the 9TH the detachment sent to the north
were driven in with the loss of six in killed.
The % Nebraska were Immediately ordered
to pursue the enemy, which they did, over
taking them seven miles from camp, where an
engagement of short duration ensued, result
ing in killing six Indians and losing two of
our men. Our losses during the three days
fighting amounted to sixty-one killed and
wounded. The chiefs are coming in every
day and giving themselves up. The Indians
are to all appearances totally demOralized.

The state elections in Pennsylvania and
Ohio take place tomorrow. In Ohio the
friends of the administration feel sure of
electing their candidates by heavy majorites,
and the indications are that their most san
guine expectations will be realized, and that
Valandigham will be lett to enjoy, in Can
ada, such consolation as he can derive from
the tender ministrations of the rebels, who
desire SO eagerly TO have him elected. From
Pennsylvania all the reports are cheering.
The friends of the government are confident
of decisive triumph. Many democrats,
among them George NJ. Dallas, will vote for
