Important Decision i'm Regard to
Runaway COnscripls.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2l.-Provost Marshal
General Fry, in letter to the Mayor OF
Washington, says that credit will be allowed
only for such men as are retained by the
draft. Persons who are drawn and fail to
report are not considered by the law officers
OF the Government, nor by the Provost
Marshal Generals Bureau, as obtained in the
meaning of the law. They will not, there
fore, be credited unless they shall be subse-
qncntly arrested and held to service. In
view of this decision some of our promi-
nent citizens have taken measures to dis
cover the whereabouts Of those who have
failed to report, offering reward of $50
for every such drafted man who may be
caught and held to service. According to
General Fry's communication it would ap-
pear that citizens are held responsible for
drafted absentees.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2l--ll:l0 a. NJ
Major GeneyM Die:
The following telegram received this
morning contains further particulars Of the
battle Of Cedar Greek:
CEDAR CREEK, Va, Oct. %, 1l:3O AM.
Lieut.. Gen. Grant, City Point:
We have again been favored by n great
victory won from disaster by the gallantry
of our officers and men. The attack on
the enemy was made at =. NJ. by half
wheel OF the whole line. With division
of cavalry turning each flank of the enc
my, the whole line advanced. The enemy,
alter stubborn resistance, broke and fed
and were pushed with yigor. The artillery
captured will probably be over fifty pieces.
This, of course, includes what were CAP
tured from our troops in the early morning.
AT least l,6O0 prisoners have been brought
in; also wagons and ambulances in large
numbers.
THIS morning the cavalry made dash at
Fishers Hill and carried it, the enemy hav-
lnss, Ing 1led ed during the night, leaving only
=! have to regret the loss of many valu-
able officers killed and wounded, among
them Col. Jas. Thorburn. commanding a
division of Crooks command, killed; Col.
onerWonu, commanding brigade, wound
ed severely, but would not leave the field.
l cannot yet give full account. Many of
our men captured in the morning made
their escape and are coming in. Ramesur,
commanding a division in Early's army,
died this morning.
[Signedl PHI. SHERIDAN.
Gen. Grants appreciation of the victory
at Cedar Greek is expressed in the following
dispatch:
CITY POINT, Oct. 20, SPIN.
Hon. q. N. Stanton, Secretary of War:
] had salute of one hundred guns from
each of the armies here fired. in honor of
Sheridan's last victory, turning what bid
falr to be disaster into glorious victory.
1t stamps Sheridan, what l have always
thought him, one Of the ablest of Generals.
[Signcd] us. GRANT.

The Medical Director reports that seven
hundred and seventy wounded have reach
ed Winchester from the field. All the
wounded that are able to bear transporta-
tion will be forwarded Immediately to Mar

General whose name am unable to ascer-
tain. Our losses are estimated at 5,0OO.-
Prisoners captured say that Longstreet lost
tllree-fourths Of his artillery. Another
says nothing could withstand the impetu-
osity of Shcridan's army. Charge after
charge was made, with the most brilliant
success. We captured 43pieces OF artillery
and some 5000 prisoners, and drove Long
streets shattered and scattered State re-
serves far up the valley.
The rebel attack was induced by moving
the 9th corps to Front Royal, causing the
rebels to believe they were being sent
back to Grant. BY the timely capture of q
dispatch from Longstrect to Early, Sheri-
dan was informed that the latter would
have reinforced him sufficient, as the dis
patch said, Ito crush Sheridan out of the
Valley" Sheridan had first organized his
cavalry for grand expedition. but on re-
ceipt of this dispatch retained them. How
fortunate this was is now seen.

The Improvement I'm the com-

INDIA CHOLAGOGUE, is one OF the
prominent tests Of its healthy action upon
the hillary organs. The appearance Of the
skin denotes with much certainty the con-
dition Of the liver; especially if the de-
rangement of this organ has been of long
standing. 1t is matter of common obser-
walton that Western and Southern men carry
in their countenances the marks of their
residence, from the almost universal effect
ofa bilious climate upon the liver, and
through this organ upon the complexion.

New YORK, Oct. 21.-The Posts Wash
ington special contains the following: Per-
sons who have arrived here to-day from
Sherldan's army, and who witnessed the
last battle, say that it was the most COM
plete victory of the war. The rebel forces
were shattered and fled In confusion, aban-
doning their own artillery and all they had
captured in the earlier part of the day.
Sheridan has already pushed on for dis
tance of ten miles In pursuit of the enemy.
He has a sufficient force for all contingent
cies, and viii probably be heard from
again tomorrow.
Several of the New York regiments in
Grants army have already cast their votes
for President. All the Connecticut regi-
ments have also voted.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2l.-A letter written
from headquarters to the Inquirer, contains
large account Of rebel atrocities and mur-
ders committed on Union soldiers the facts
being gathered from exchanged Union
officers and surgeons. The letter states |:
According to the accounts of several officers
and surgeons, the conduct of portion of
;he rebel troops subsequent to the engage
ment at Saltville was utterly lawless and
brutal. In two field hospitals near the scene
of the battle were 20 wounded negroes of the
First Colored Cavalry-flfteen in one, eight
in the other. All but three of them were
murdered in cold blood by the rebel soldiers,
and these fiends in human form boasted
while doing this hellish deed, that they had
been engaged in the same work all day.
They claimed to have buried 125 colored
soldiers, of whom nearly all must have been
slaughtered in the same way, as it is said
scarcely dozen were killed In the battle.

the evening was performed to perfection.-
The "Red Gnome," which is to be repeated

Gle, and was enthusiastically received. To-
night, the last of the engagement of the
Troupe, is for the benefit of Mons. Paul

its. The programme for this evening is an

of the brakemen on the passenger train,
the arm of train boy named Gentleman,

that his recovery was yesterday considered

that he had died.
