WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-GSpecim 10 Tri-
bane. From the front we learn there are
indications of disposition on the part OF
Gen. Meade to obey orders by attacking
the enemy and to find out as to whether
Lee intends to fight. There is no need of
hunting for the foe, as they are all around.

ARMY OF THE POTOMAC.
Changes i'm the Positions OF the
Armies, and Indications that a
Rfattlc will soon occur.

New YORK, Nov. 1.-The Herold's
Army of the Potomac di patch, of the
31st, reports that the trains are running
to Warrenton. L track is relaid nearly
to Bealton, and it will probably be finished
to the Rappahannock in three or four
days.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 31-[Special to the
Tribune. I'VE learn from the Army of
Potomac that the principal movements of
late have been changes of position by the
different corps. These changes have been
the occasions of slight skirmishes, but
without serious losses on either side. The
guerillas continue their depredations on
wagon trains.
The impression prevails at Headquarters,
that Lee is disposed to fight, and Meade is
intending to accommodate him at the first
opportunity. There are those, however,
who continue to think that Lees army has
been materially reduced, and any show on
his part of intention to fight, is merely to
conceal his weakness.
The Worlds Army of the Potomac dis
patch of Sunday says, it is still quiet.
There has not been any firing on our front
for the last three days. The Army of the
Potomac is located in an excellent posi-
ton, and on its line of supplies should any
contingency arise, it can with equal facili.
ty be concentrated either to advance OF
repel an attack of the enemy.

WASHINGTON, Nov. l.
To Col. Robert Nugent, Acting a assistant Procost
Marshal General, New York:
The representations made by Dean Richmond
and Peter Caggar in a printed circular dated
October q, 1868, in respect to the action of the
Post Master General, are untrue. 1t is not true
that the State of New York is charged with
deficiency for every citizen who has paid the
three hundred dollar Communication money, and
receiving no credit therefor.
On the contrary, the State receives the same
credit for man who has paid the Communication
as if the drafted citizen had gone in person or
furnished the substitute.
In like manner towns which have raised the
money to pay their quotas receive the same
credit as if actual substitutes had been fur
nished.
The President has ordered that every citizen
who has paid the three hundred Communication
shall receive the same credit therefor as if he
had furnished substitute and is exonerated
from military service for the time for which he
was drafted, to-wit, for three years.
As the Misrepresentation OF Dean Richmond
and Peter Caggar have been published and cir
culated for electioneering purposes. it is proper
that you give them immediate correction.
JAMES B. FRY,
Provost Marshal General.
Two of the Herald's correspondents,
Messrs. Hart and Hendricks, were gobbled
yesterday at Auburn, by Moseby's que
rillas.
Major Gen. Butler has been assigned to
the command of the 18th army corps, de-
partment of Virginia and North Carolina,
in place of Gen. Foster, who is ordered to
report here to the Adjutant General.
Circumstances indicate that Foster will
have command of the defences at Wash
ington.
Gen. Hatch has been assigned to duty
at st. Louis, in charge of the cavalry de-
partment to be established at that point.

Meteorological Notes for October, 1865

The month was one OF clouds and darkness,
with pretty sharp intimation that winter is
pretty nigh at hand. Of course it possessed no
very attractive features, and was q modified
November. If its successor should follow its
example, the predictions of an early and
severe winter will be very likely to be full
filled. The average deposit of water, for
at least ten years. in this neighborhood, has
been abou: twenty-seven inches. The tables
below will show to what extent the present
year is now in default, to wit 1921 inches.
This is an extraordinary phenomenon; and a
reasonable conclusion from it is, that this great
deficiency will be. to some extent, supplied
during the coming winter. 1t is fair, therefore
to suppose, that we may expect large and fire.
quent falls of snow during the next months;
or else the year will have to be counted the ex-
ceptional one in long series. 1t will be seen
also that the mean temperature of the month
presents q remarkable contrast with many of
its immediate predecessors.
The thermometer furnished the following

Mr.. JAS. HILL, who has been represent
ing the La Crosse Railroad and Davidson Line
in Chicago during the present season, returned
home last night. He says. II have received
letters daily from merchants from all parts of
the State inquiring about their freights. Know
ing the facts, will assure them that all the
freghts destined for the Upper Mississippi is
not detained at Chicago no longer than it takes
to make the transfer; and at La Crosse 1 found
scarcely anything at all destined for the Upper
Mississippi. Before leaving Chicago found
that st. Paul and other freights were in many
cases as much as six and seven weeks arriving
from New York. So the INGREDIENTS of Mime
sofa can be assured of receiving their goods,
should they arrive at Chicago or Milwaukee in
time to be transferred to the Davidson Line at

An officer in the Third Minnesota sends
US letter, from which we make the fol-
lowing extract:
LITTLE Rock, ARKANSAS, Oct. 16, 1868.
1 have entirely recovered from my late ill
ness, and have had excellent health since I
came to Little Rock. We may probably re-
main here all winter ;-everything looks that
way now; but no one can tell what tomorrow
may bring forth, or what orders may be receiv-
ed by the next mail.
Our regiment is doing very WELL generally
in good health since we came here; drill excel
lent. and our dress parades crowded with adj
miring spectators-the elite of this little city.
The weather is delightful, rather cool yet
very healthy. November and December, also
March and April, are represented as the most
unhealthy here.
On my first arrival I had q very poor opinion
of the loyalty of these people; now I have a
very different opinion. Having mixed pretty
freely with the inhabitants, I think the majority
of them decidedly loyal; at least they SO ex-
press themselves, and deprecate the misfortune
Ou ClcIu AO" Pohe'S"i uSiAAsS-
gogues. Everybody likes General Steele, who
has run his course very satisfactorily since he
came here, as well as before.
Colonel Andrews issued stringent orders to
our regiment, on his arrival, to observe the
strictest decOrum towards the inhabitants OF
this place, and our men, l am happy to say,
observe his instructions to the letter. Our men
are in fine spirits, and will do their duty
promptly and with will should the rebels do
us the honor of a visit
The mail arrives here only about once a
week, which accounts for letters arriving so
slowly, say twenty-one to twenty-five days in
transit, though railroad has been built from
here to Duvall's Bluff, sixteen miles. You re-
member, suppose, that our regiment is doing
the duty of Provost Guard of this city.

THE ST.. PAUL LIBRARY ASSOCIATION
The Provisional Board of Directors of the new
Library Association met in Y. M. c. A. room
on Thursday evening. The Board consists of
eighteen members, nine from each Of the old
Associations. They are to be the corpontors
of the new Association, and to direct its affairs
for the remainder of the present year. The
Board as it exists at present is as follows
D. w. INGERsoLI, President.
d. A. ROBERTSON, Vice President.
c. E. MAYO, Recording Secretary.
WM DAWSON, Treasurer.
EDWARD EaeLEsroN, Corresponding Sccre-
tary and Librarian.

rill, r. o. Strong, H. M. Knox, w. B. Dean,
w. 8. Potts, j. w. Pond, T. D. Simonton, r.
Marvin, Edward Hogan. R. F. Crowell.
The Board of Directors have undertaken
their work tremendously and enthusiastically,
and we are confident they will be generously
sustained by our citizens. At the conclusion
of the meeting, the members of the Board took
several hundred dollars worth of shares, and
we understand that our principal business men
responded very literally, as far as called on
yesterday. All seemed delighted with the idea
of having at last public library that will be
worthy of the intelligence and liberality Of tht
city. There is no longer any obstacle to the
building up of q noble library, and we shall h
surprised if the subscription does not react
several thousand dollars.
We shall publish the subscription for shares
as soon as it is complete.

In the fight last night the enemy attacked

Howard, whilst marching to Geary's aid,
was attacked in both TANKS, the enemy occu-
plying in force two commanding hills on the

two of his regiments and took both at the
point of the bayonet, driving the enemy from
his breastworks and across Lookout Creek.
