The Cavalry Fight ON Saturday.

New York, Oct. 5.-The Herald's cor
respondent with cavalry on the left of the
Army of the Potomac says of the cavalry
fight on Saturday: The rebels were led by
Gen. Wade Hampton, and Gems. Butler, w.
Ii. Lee, Dearing and Young, each with a
brigade. They thought to secure an easy
victory. They succeeded III driving our
small force, which was commanded by Gen.
Davies, from the lines of slight defenses,
and, dismounting three brigades, made a
desperate attempt to dislodge us from q
third. Our forces consisted of the 1st N.
j., lst Mass, 9Th Ohio 10th N. Y, and q
battalion of. the 1st Pa, with four guns
The fight was terrific; time and again the
rebels charged up to Within few feet of
the line, and were hurled back with deadly
showers of bullets. They then attempted
a flank movement, at the same time charg-
ing the breastworks; but they met with
such reception that they were glad to re-
turn. Their loss was heavy. ''EH
AS soon as it was discovered the enemy
were falling back, our men climbed their
breastworks and with cheer charged the
fleeing, rebels. Our loss was slight. a
The Heralds City Point correspondence
says in the fight for the South Side railroad
about two thousand prisoners fell into the
hands of the rebels, belonging principally
to the 5lst New York, 2lst Massachusetts,,
45th Pennsylvania and 7th Rhode Island.

Anhirs in the Valley.

New YORK, Oct. 5.-The Tribune's spc-
cial, dated Martinsburg, Oct 4, says: The
latest intelligence from Gen. Sheridan, is
to Saturday morning. At that time his
infantry were still at Harrisonburg, while
his cavalry were east of the Blue Ridge,
reconnoitering in the vicinity of Charlotts-
vile.
The rebel report of disaster to our cav
airy at Swift Head Gap is untrue Instead
of meeting with repulse, we gained VIC
tory, capturing about 100 prisoners, and
driving the rebels through the gap, which
they had fortified. Rock Fish and Browns
rebels, and are defended by considerable
force. The position is tlankable on either
side.
1t is probable that the next information
we get from Sheridan will come via Alex
andria. Supply trains continue to go to
the front, and there is direct indication that
Martinsburg and Harper's Ferry are to be
abandoned as bases ofsupplies.

BIG THING BY THE SHoDDIEs.-It is un-
derstood that the Shoddy party is now in
labor with big political demonstration
which is to come off on Friday or Saturday
night. The faithful have been assessed, the
loyal contractors and patriotic hangers-on
have been visited, and with the outside as
sistance of this immaculate Administra-
tion, a sum amounting to three or four
thousand dollars has been subscribed to
defray the expenses sof'pyrotechnics, bands,
blowers, strikers and boys to get up the en-
thusiasm. 1t is given out that all the ia,
nous brass bands of the country and the
most illustrious Shoddyites are to be employ
ed to do the chief blowing. All the loyal
of the country round the city and county
have been warned toappear upon peril of an
accusation of disloNlty or being drafted ;
and it is understood that "money is no OBJ
ject." 1t is given out that the meeting is
gotten up for the purpose of defeating Sam
Cox, and to accomplish this the treasury of
the Loyal League, as well as that of the
Government, is on tap. If our armies
achieve victory between this and the great
time, the meeting is to be heralded as an
impromptu demonstration Of rejoicing; if
our armies should chance to be defeated,
the Shoddies will rejoice all the same, for a
defeat will create new contracts and pro-
long the war. This is to be "loyal" dem
onstration. 4 One armed and one-legged
Mcclellan soldiers, or their families, are
not to participate
And the night shall be hideous with noise
And the means that come from the fray.
Shall be drowned in the shoais of the boys \
And the Shoddies. who from war run away.

NEWSPAPER CHANGE.-There is a popular
notion that one of the tricks of that wise
and sagacious bird, the ostrich, when hotly
pursued, is to stick his head in the sand,
and fancy he is concealed. The Ohio State
Journal, owned and edited by Capt. F. w.
HURT, late of the commissary Department,
has, according to notice in that paper
yesterday, changed hands, and is now
printed by The Journal Company. There
is no announcement that HURT has retired,
and It is perfectly understood that he is
The Journal Company. The ostrich has
his head in the sand, and is, of course, in:
visible.

the receipt box of the Society. In spite of
the rain and mud, al number of articles
were entered yesterday, and now the list of
entries is fully equal to that of any previous
year. Among other notables' there are
twenty-seven specimens of butter, weigh

there was scarcely enough people in attend

there were but one or two awards of pre-
miums made. 1t is hoped that to-day and
tomorrow will prove sufficiently moderate
to allow the people to attend and redeem
the Fair from being total failure. su
