MR. SEALE.-The Sam Francisco Argus
Of last Saturday contained an article high
ly derogatory to the character of Mr.. Scale
Of this town. We referred to the matter
without, however, using Sir. Scales
name. The Enterprise copied the whole
article, and yesterday Mr.. S. called upon
the editor, and says that the report Of the
Argus was untrue in nearly every particu-
lar. He says the note was sent to him
BY third party, and he did not know
Schwartz in the transaction until short
zine previous to the suit; that with the
note he received instructions to defray
certain indebtedness to the Bed Rock,
Southern Gold Hill and Spring Valley
Mining Companies that he duly col
lected the 1896, and paid it out as direct
ed, bat the amount fell $40 or $50 short
and that he advanced out of his own
pocket, and has never been repaid.

the concurrent testimony of our reporters
is, that throughout the entire metropolis,
there is but one sentiment, that of

that the Democratic soldiers shall have
fair vote. The citizens viii not submit
for one instant to this lsst crow-act of des-
pOtism.
The bitter Indignation which is univer-

cedes there is but one course left for them.
After going on to quote all

it represents the excited people as having

was but one opinion in this matter, Mr..
Lincoln must not ssattempt to perpetrste
this terrible outrage upon the rights of the

he has taken. Ifhe does not he alone will
be responsible for whatever may follow"

A accommodating party about three hun
dred strong was sent out on the oath from
Powellis Division, in the vicinity of Front
Royal. The expedition was commanded
by Major Gibson.
During an early hour Of the morning of
the Oath, Major Gibson moved his COM
mand across both branches of the Shen-
andoah River, and moving through
Front Royal passed towards Milford and
the Lursy Valley.
Before daylight he came upon the enc
my's pickets and drove them IN, capturing
one or two He then passed rapidly on
towards Milford Creek On the way up
he met the enemy in line of battle, with
two pieces Of artillery, and although his
force did not exceed 300, he deployed in
line of battle without reserve and charged
them.
The enemy, perhaps, remembering our
other late astonishing cavalry operations,
did nothing more than fire one volley and
then break
Gibson continued the pursuit as rapidly
as it was possible for him to move forward
in the darkness. The enemy kept his ar
tillery on the pike, and after firing one
round imbered up and moved to the rear.
Owing to GibsOn's inferior force, he could
not flank the enemy and get at his artil-
lery. The enemy sent the artillery TO the
rear, and kept the cavalry right and left
of the road to cover its getting of.
In the general charge which Gi6son's
front made he captured one battle
flag.
By continuing to press on, Gibson at
length drove the enemy over the Creek
and upon the line of the rebel fortifcations
in which they sought refuge and opened a
rapid fire from carbines and the two
pieces of artillery aforesaid In front Of
this barrier Gibson halted but TO feel the
enemys position, take afew prisoners,
ascertaning the rebels strength, and then
retired reaching safe position in the di-
rection Of the Shenandoah by Daylight.
The enemy finding at last that the bird
had flown set out after him at trot, but
did u5T succeed IN capturing him as Glib
son reached the Union lines in safety, and
without heavy loss.
The affair is looked upon as quite q
brilliant cavalry dash.
The idea of 300 men almost routing ?.
600 mounted rebels, driving them to their
Notifications and capturing one Of their
battle flags besides nearly capturing two
pieces of artillery is indeed amazing.
In the course of the reconnaissance and
from prisoners captured information was
gained of high Importance to the interests
of the army.
Yesterday eanOnading was heard. Il
appeared in the direction of Front Royal,
and was probably another cavalry fight

-.-..---------- LOUISVILLE, Oct. 2S.
Street rumors of the capture of Padu-
cab by rebel force, has been prevalent
all day, they are traceable to no authentic
source and doubtless arose from what had
leaked out concerning our military move
ments, the transmission Of which is con-
traband.
A passenger from Owensboro, says,
about four hundred men, claiming to be
Confederate soldiers, are encamped Just
back Of Uniontown, and also that
The whole eoouutry in that vicinity and
along the Ohio river is filed with bands
of guerrillss.
The Owensboro Monitor says:
On "Wednesday some twenty-five well
armed men, calling themselves Louisiana
guerrillss, robbed Sheriff Harrison and car
ried him of, but subsequently, released
him.
On Thursday noon thirteen Confeder-
ate soldiers, most of them were officers,
took possession of Owensboro, and just
before the arrival of the steamer Morning
Star were, joined by two hundred of their
comrades under Maj. Anderson. When
the Morning Star was in sight they wanted
to draw her to the shere, but failing in that
they fred 40 or so shots at her. Only one
of which touched the boat, doing no dam
age.
Since the occupation of Owensboro by
the Confederstes, theconduct of the troops
has been good.
Captain Steadman reports that their in
structiGns were to destroy Government
stores and respect private property, except
when absolutely necessary for immediate
wants.
Horses have been pressed rather ex-
tremely.
Some boots and clothing were taken, but
we presume these things come under the
head of Immediate wants"
They deny all connection with those
who first visited US.
We notice that nearly all the commands
that have come to our city are new recruits
ard doubtless the product of the last gov
ernment draft, and are mostly from the
Counties of Hurdin, Meade and Hancock
Recruiting has been going on briskly in
the country and some few have enlisted
from the town.

Especial Dispatch to the Cleveland LEADER.l
COLUMBUS, Oct. 2s.
The Union State Executive Consmittee
have been advised through trustworthy
sources, that the Copperheads in several
sections of the State, where they are in
the msjority, intend to perpetrste immense
frauds at the coming election. Their plan
is to vote early on the day in citizens
clothes and then at later hour don SOL
diers' uniform, and smuggle into the ballot
box another vote, either at the same or
some adjacent polls under the control of
their friends.
This information comes from parties
who have been in the enemy's camp, heard
the mod,ss operandi explained and discuss
ed. Let Union men be on their guard,
and see that the nefsrious scheme is
thwarted.
A large number of Government en-
ployees, on their way to Tennessee and
Georgia, stopped at Urestline today, and
hsve been boisterous and riotous in their
demonstrations - breaking into houses,
stores, Sc.-so as to compel the citizens 20
ask the authorities here for protection finm
further outrages.
1t would be advisable for the Govern
ment to send such men to their destination
under guard, for they are but little if any
better than bounty jumpers, and not TO be
compared with drafted men, who are al
ways sent forward strongly guarded.
The 182d Ohio leaves for the front to-
night. 1t was raised principally in the
Toledo District, which has done better than
any other part of the State in turning out
soldiers.
The regiment is in command of Colonel
Lewis Butler, formerly Major of the 67th
Ohio. The Lieutenant Colonel is John A
Chase, lately Captain in the 14th Ohio
The Major for the regiment has not yet

A correspondent Of the n. y. Comn.ereial

A correspondent of the N. Z Commercial
Advertiser thus writes from London:
The Confederate loan continues to ex-
perience violent fluctuations. The weak
cotton spectators at Liverpool were mostly
holders Of it, and their fall has caused
numerous amounts to be forced upon the
market. As the regular dealers in it were
few in number, this pressure would Of itself
have been enough to cause q ruinOus de-
cline, but as it was co-ineident with the
arrival of the news Of the defeat Of Esrly
in the Shenandoah Valley, its severity Was
greatly aggregated. From s5, which was
the price touched two months ago, there
has been a daily drop, until yesterday
transactions took place at 80. To-day the
final price is SO. -.

NEW YORK, Oct. %.
The HeraIds Winchester correspondent
o tho 9th, says
The enemy has still a very strong force
in the Valley He is reliably reported to
be recognizing. Ths enemy 3 $50 has
strong force of cavalry in the Luray VAL
ley.
Under cover of the present stiffness,
movements of a very important character
are being made by the rebels.
At the time when the late battle of the
18th took place the enemy had stationed
three brigades of cavalry near Milford
Creek, in the Luray Valley. When the
general movement of the rebels was made
this force advanced to Buckland's Ford, on
he Shenandoah River and Front Royal.
In the movement here they were met by
PowelTs division Of cavalry and checked.
When the rebels met with the defeat the6
returned to Milford, and within the line
Of fortihcations erected there for substan-
