WASHINGTON, Aug. 0.
Information has been received that General
Averill, after overtaking the enemy at Moor
field, attacked and utterly routed them, cap
turing between 500 and 600 prisoners, includ-
ing Gen. johnson, who subsequently escaped,
and his whole staff, with their headquarters,
colors, and all the rebel artillery, trans, and
large number of small arms. McCausland
barely escaped by fleeing into the mountains.
Gen. Averill pursued the scattered remnant of
the rebel force for twenty-four miles, captur-
ing many. His entire loss in killed was seven
men. The pursuit was only abandoned when
Averills horses were too exhausted to follow
the rebels into the mountains.

Report of the superintendent of
Public Printing.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The Report OF
John D. Defrees, Superintendent of Public
Printing, shows the following results:
The money expended for the printing pa
per and binding from October lst. 1862, To
September 30th, 1863, amounts to 81, ,405, 900
The year preceding it cost S549,000, the ex-
cess being principally for blanks for the
various Departments. The amount of print
ing and binding executed the last year, il
paid for at the prices established by the law
of 1852, would have cost S37S500 more than
has been expended for that purpose by the
Government.
The Government printing Office was es.
tablished in March, 1861, since which time
up to Sept. 80, 1853, the printing and bind.
ing has cost $5S4000less than it would have
cost at the old prices. The report consists
as follows: The character Of the printing
and binding, in material and workmanship
is superior to that furnished under any ses
sion which hasassembled. For the present
the experiment of the Government doins
its own work, both as regards its quality
and economy, may be regarded as complete
" successful.

The HAIR REsToRER-Professo De Mum,
the renowned Hair Restorer, will remain
only three days longer in the city. There
fore, those who would have his assistance
in restoring life and vigor to the hair, pro-
noting its growth or thickness, or in curing
diseases affecting the head, should call i'm
mediately at the Professors parlors in the
Neil House.
The Professor has made this a special
study. Besides, he has had long experience.
Hence his success. Hence, too, the impor-
tanceof calling upon him, and having per-
sonal examination made of the case, that he
may determine the true character ofthc de-
feet or disease, and apply the proper rem
edy. 7 a
You may have tried various specifics to
your head or hair and found them all fail.
Why? Simply, because either the remedy
resorted to was inadequate, or the nature Of
the difficulty was not properly understood.
Here is man of science, experience and
skill In the person of the Professor DE Mum,
who has for years devoted himself with
great success to this branch of the healing
art. All who need his services, should call
upon him at once at the Neil House. ae.
