Canadians of the intention of the raid on Buffalo
have been received to the effect that 10 900 men
had gradually arrived during theweek and were

New York, Nov. 4.-The Times special says
Terry was convicted and sentenced to States
Prison for life. While on trial he made for
NAL confession and is now disposed to be more
communicative. He says he had been some
time before his arrest sick of the business and
was only waiting to receive reply to letters ad-
dressed by him to Peter Cagger and otherprom-
inent Democratic politicians ofNew York, which
would prove their completely beyond peradven-
ture, when he intended to act fairly and make
complete expose of the whole thing. That if the
arrest of himself and confinement had been post
poned another week, he would have been able
to have fixed the guilt of the whole transaction
from its inception where it properly belongs.
New York, Nov. 5.-The Times special says:
Solicitor Whiting states on the lst of October
there had been received under the first call over
l25, 900 volunteers He had been informed by
credtable authority that the last draft would
furnish all the men needed in this war.
The well-informed St. Louis correspondent of
the Journal says: What Price accomplished du-
ring this raid may be summed up thus: He re-
ceived 1000 recruits and the same number of
conscripts5 captured 1000 stands of arms, pa
rolled twenty thousand prisoners and destroyed
S5OOOOO worth of property.
On the other hand he lost 5000 men in battle,
besides many hundreds of deserters, 10 pieces of
artillery, 25O wagons, with their supplies, and
several thousands Of small arms. He carried
but little out of the State except number of
horses and stock of clothing on this backs of
his thronging followers. His raid has caused
more damage to the people than benefit to the
rebellion.
