FINANCIAL.-The New York Commercial
Advertiser OF yesterday evening says:
The stock market opened with decidedly
stronger feeling than yesterday. Theheavyde-
cline has brought on few outside orders, and
q strong disposition is shown by strong outside
capitalists to buy freely Of the most prominent
railroad stocks, but this morning the market
was principally in the hands of the brokers,
and included as usual, a large amount of short
transactions, the "bulls," even after the very
heavy fall Of Saturday and yesterday, being
too cautious to make any large operations for
rise The feeling Is decidedly more buoyant,
and the general impression is that prices must
rebound within a few days.
There was a decidedly stronger tone in Gov
eminent securities.
The money market is less affected by the
panic Of the last few days than might have
been expected. There Is no extreme press ure
for money, nor any important variations from
the rate Of per cent. on call loans.
Gold opened steadier this morning, and the
price has been sustained by the heavy pur-
chases to cover shorts. There is q great sclr-
city of cash gold, upon which per cent. Is
rapidly paid. The deliveries are very irregu-
lar.
The Erening Post says:
The partial cessation Of the panic TO which
we referred yesterday continues. Notwith.
standing the peace rumors from Louisville,
the speculative feeling is stronger, and for the
present quotations show q tendencyto advance.
Gold opened at 1913, and after rising to 1875
and declining to 1924, closed at 1914.
Exchange is active at 109a1O94 for gold.

NASHVILLE, Sept. 27.-There was skirmish-
Ing with the rebel force under Forrest all day
yesterday.
Rosseau fell back two miles from Pulaski,
but readvanCed and holds position In the
town up to p. m, and to-day the enemy ad
vanced their skirmish line to within half mile

lines and attack in the morning.
Our loss in TO- days fighting will not exceed
eighty men.
Prisoners captured in Marshall county state
that FORFEIT has twenty pieces Of artillery and
about 1000 men.
Rosseau, by a strategic movement, invited an
attack from the rebel commander, but he did
not respond.
There is no telegraph in working order to
Pulaski.
1t is rumored in Atlanta that two trains were
captured on Monday by the rebel force at Big
Shanty on the Chattanooga Railroad. Officers
Just from the front confirm this statement.

HEADQUARTERS ARMY POTOMAC, Sept. &c.
Quiet still prevails in front of Petersburg,
broken only by the usual picket firing with &C.
casional artillery duels. the effect of which is
merely large consumption OF powder by both
parties.
good deal OF heavy firing was heard yes
terday and to-day, in the direction OF James
River, supposed to be from the gunboats.
A large body Of rebel cavalry were reported
this afternoon to be moving to our left, but II
SO, their object hiss not yet been developed:
Three scouts were arrested within our lines
which is said to be strong enough to convict
them. Two citizens were also arrested, charged
with giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
An order has been issued in relation to the
loss OF celors in battle, namely:
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,

mander Of the Second Division, Second Army

the authority of the Commanding General, and
such permission will not be given in cases
where it shall appear that regiment or bat

on other fields, have fully retrieved their tar

they show themselves competent to protect

The officers and men of the command should
remember that their colors should be the last

Firing in Front Of Petersburg Yesterday.
The email steamer Charlotte Vanderbilt, Capt.
Culinary, arrived here this morning at half.
past six from City Point.
She reports that early yesterday morning
there was some firing along our lines fronting
Petersburg, but not sufficient to indicate tn Al
an engagement was In progress
Inc vanderbilt brought up twenty "A We rebel
deserters who desire to take the oath and be
These deserters are mostly UNASSIGNED con.
Scripts from the workshops at Richmond, and
they say that the recent order of the Confede-
Iate autaorldes purging the government shops
OF mechanics, heretofore exempted, has caused
grand skedaddle among the workmen. A
large government manufacturing establishment
AZ richmond, known as the Anderson Shop,
mas lost one hundred and eighteen men within
the past few days, who have run away with
the determination Of coming North whenever
an oppor tunlty presents itself
The conscripts assert that Early's defeat has
caused the greatest gloom in Richmond, and
that it is feared that Sheridan will make a
movement on Lynchburg. from which point
ting OF their principal supply communication.
These fears have caused belief that it will be
necessary to evacuate Richmond, and it is
RELY talked Of upon the streets.
The Virginia troops, however, pro test against
the evacuation OF Richmond, and should the
rebel authorities do so, 1t would caus mutiny
among the Virginians. These consc ripts de-
clare that 1t is not to be denied that the Con.
federates are making preparations which look
very mu6 Re an evacuation. Several gov
eminent wo kshops have been closed, the ma
chinery of Which has been removed further
South. When these parties left Richmond, q
few days ago, the machinery OF other shops
were being packed for removal if deemed me-
cessary.
The enlisted deserters speak in tho highest
terms Of the treatment they have received
since reaching our lines, and say that IL this
fact was known to the rebel troops desertions
would be more numerous.
The Confederate authorities, these deserters
say, are filling up the depleted regiments with
old men and boys, including these who have
heretofore been discharged from the military
service on account Of wounds and other per.
manent disabilities. The conscripts are sub.
and the assertions among them are quite nu.
merous.
At Point Lookout number OF rebel officers
were taken on board, who are to be transferred
to Northern prisoners.

pondent OF the Cincinnati Gazette writes from
St. Louis:
A foolish story has been in circulation since
the Chicago Convention that Gen. ROsecranz
intends TO support Mcclellan. or course no
one believes that he would do so because Of q
preference for the peace platform Of Chicago,
or for the peace warrior who failed to support
him at Rich Mountain, and then stole the lau-
rels of his victory; and if any person believes
that he would desert his principles because Of
the injustice with which he has been person
ally treated, that person must have forgotten
the persistent silence under Islander, the steady
adherence TO duty under official persecution,
that have really been one Of the finest specta-
