Nv JAMES a. EDGER TON.
~NHE first week Of October, 1861,
n saw two actions OF some I'M
portance The first was the
fight at Greenbrier river, west
ern Virginia. and the second a com
bincd naval and land affair at Ratreras
island. North Carolina. Minor Skin
mlshes occurred at Charlestown, Mo-;
Edsal's Hill, Va, in which one FED
eral was killed and three wounded;
Buffalo Hill, Ky. where the losses
were reported as ten Federals Killed
and ten wounded and fifty Confeder'
ates killed, and Chincoteague inlet
Virginia, in which four Federals were
killed and eight Confcderates. Other
events were the retreat of General
Price from Lexington and the pursuit
of him by General Fremont. who
moved out of jefferson City on the
Ith. the signing of the contract for the
construction OF the Monitor and the
resignation of General Robert Ander'
sou. commander of the Union forces
in Kentucky. who was compelled TO
quit the service on account of Ill
health. 1t was stated at Washington
that at this time the Union forces were
being increased at the rate OF oo'ooo
new recruits per week.
The situation in western Virginia on
the LIST of October was somewhat as
follows: After the affairs at CarnlfeX
Ferry and Cheat Mountain in Septem-
Der General Il. e. Lee, the Confed-
crate commander, had left General IL.
r. Jackson with about 5000 troops at
The Greenbrier river and had himself
gone to Join General II. A. Wise at
Big Sewell mountain. At midnight on
Oct. . General Reynolds moved from
Cheat mountain to reconnoiter Jack
sons position. Reynolds had about
5000 men. but had the disadvantage
Of finding his foe securely intrenched.
In the early morning he reached the
Confederate front and Colonel Nlilroy
with the Ninth Indiana opened the
action.
After the southern picketS were driv-
an in Reynolds placed the Fourteenth
Indiana squarely in front and brought
three batteries into position. The bat
tie now opened in earnest and lasted
about four hours Three of the Con
rederate guns were disabled and the
yunners driven back. Hearing that re-
endorsements were on their way to
strengthen jackson. the Federals were
eager to charge the foe. but Reynolds
would not permit it. The Confederate
reserves did come up after two hours
Of fighting. and Reynolds decided TO
shift his line OF attack. He now at
tempted an assault on the right flank.
but was repulsed. AS his ammunition
had given out, he withdrew in good or
der, having accomplished his purpose.
His losses were ten killed and thirty
two wounded. and he estimated that
Jackson had suffered much more Sc
verely and had lost 100 killed., 70
wounded and IS prisoners On the 7th

noissance in force and drove the enc

of his supplies on the way There
were a few later affairs lasting till
December. but the recall OF Lee to
Richmond marked the definite aban-
donment of western Virginia by the
Davis government Henceforth the AL
leghenies became the dividing line be-
tween the north and the south. and the
portion of Virginia lying to the west OF
this boundary became a new state as
stanchly Union as Ohio or Pennsylya-
mia.
The result of Lees operations in
this campaign furnishes an interesting
side light on his generalship. Pollard.

supplanted by General Mansfield. In
an article written after the war Colo
mel Hawkins insisted, however. that
the expedition Of Colonel Brown had
served its purpose in preventing the
occupancy Of Hatteras island by the
Confederates. He believed that if it
had not been made they would have
destroyed Hatteras light and would
have been in a position to make an
attack from the rear on the Union
garrison occupying the forts.
The blockade Of southern ports, at
which the southerners and Europeans
had scoffed in the beginning, was
being made more effective as the
months went by, but was still far from
being complete. 1t was stupendous
undertaking. as never in history had a
serious effort been made to blockade so
long a coast line. The lack Of availa-
BILE vessels on the part Of the north
made the task so much the more Diff
cult. but by the conversion Of all
sorts of craft into gunboatS. by whole
sale purchases and by feverish activ-
ity In shipbuilding the blockade was
at last made much more effective than
at first seemed possible. This became
an important factor IN conquering the
south, as it isolated her from the
world. shut of supplies and threw heT
on her own resources. which were rap,
idly depleted. Thus in the end the
blockade justified itself. Even in Oc'
tober, 1861. the south was beginning
to feel it's effects

At HatteraS light Colonel Hawkins
was happily encountered with about
800 men. who had marched to the re-
lief of their distressed comrades
With these came the Monticello and
Susquehanna. The odds were now

for more than three hours. firing $50
shots. 1t was impossible to tell how
much execution was done. but guns
and supplies were left scattered along
the beach. and the Union officers est
mated that the number Of killed and
wounded must have been considerable.
The New York Tribune said that hard
ly in any action up to that time had
such execution been done. Neverthe-
less the southerners afterward report
ed that they had lost but one man.
The one sided battle continued until
darkness fell. when the Confederate
boats managed to get the remainder
of their men off and with chem put
back to Roanoke island. During this
operation the Monticello continued her

enemy's vessels.
After this fight the Confederates re-
turned to Roanoke island and did not
again disturb the Federals in their
control of Hatteras inlet and Hatteras
island. General Mansfield was soon
sent down from Washington with re-
endorsements and was eventually re-
placed by General Thomas S. Williams.
Colonel Hawkins issued an address
to the people of North Carolina. as
surfing them that the northern troops
had not come to modest them, but to
re-establish law and order. In re-
sDonse to this the citizens of Hyde
county, in the vicinity of HatteraS,
held a public meeting and adopted res
olutionS expressing loyalty to the
Union and declaring their independ-
ence from Confederate rule.
Blockade Becoming Effective.
The strategic Importance of con-
trolling Hatteras inlet lay in the fact
that it closed an important harbor TO
blockade runners and Confederate pri-
vateers. BY their position on Roanoke
island the Confederates still had an
entrance at an upper inlet. but were
shut out of the lower and more i'm
portant gateway to Pamlico sound.
The inlet at Ocracol1e. still lower down,
was still open. but the Union forces
had put the forts guarding it out of
commission, as already noted. Colo

GRAND JURY ON DEFENSE.
Summoned Before Court, Accused B! Clarence Darrow in Dynamite
 Trial.

Los Angeles, Aug. 2-Charged with rorolonging it's existence merely to harass the defense of the McNamara brothers, accused as dynamiters in connection with the blowing up of the Los Angeles Times, the county Grand Jury is itself to be the subject of ju- dicial inquisition. The contempt pro- ceedings against George Behm, uncle of Ortie McManigal, chief witness against the McNamaras, have been postponed, and Judge Bordwel1 has ordered subpoenas issued for the mem- bers of the Grand Jury. The attor- neys for the McNamaras made strong allegations against the members of the Grand Jury before Judge Bord- well yesterday. The court was peti- toned to order all Grand Jurymen to appear to testify in behalf of Behm, who was arrested for contempt, to prove that he had committed no con- tempt.
 This matter is before this court and not before the Grand Jury,'' said Clar- ence Darrow for the defense. 'eThe Grand Jury is trying no case. It is in session to intimidate, harass, and browbeat every person we bring to Los Angeles to assist our case. Ev- cry one familiar with this Grand Jury knows its prosecutions of other peo- pfe'

HOW HE GOT REVENGE. Drank Up Farmers Cider and Then
 Had Him Prosecuted.

Falls Village, Aug. 2-George Judd of this place, was fined $41 and costs for selling cider to man whom he had formerly employed upon his farm after a trial yesterday afternoon.
 It seems that Judd hired a man named Martin to assist him on his farm and the latter developed, so it was brought out in testimony, an acute thirst for cider AS Judd had his cellar we'll stocked, Martin was able to satisfy his thirst At about having time Martin suddenly left him and hired out with neighbor named Page. Martin in his departure for got his trunk and Judd refused to give it up until he had received re- compense for the cider that Martin had drunk. Page then wrote out his personal check for $1.75 and sent it to Judd. Across it was also written "In payment for cider"
 A few days ago Judd cashed the check and Page immediately brought criminal proceedings against him for selling cider without a license.

 Young Jamouneau and Miss Mar jorie Curtis of Orange had been car ryipg on . quiet courtship so success fully that the date ~of their marriage had been set as Aug. 10. The hap py young. people decided that their parents must become acquainted, so Mics Curtis went to Newark Kto the home of her aunt. and her engage mont was formally announced at the same time that her young friends s'showered" her with plenty of linen for the coming home.
 a Then with her mother, Mrs. Fred erick O. Curtis of No. 5e Ward St., Orange. she went to the tailor shop of young Jamouneau'S father in Mar ket street, Newark. The mother and the father were well on the high road toward strong liking when Miss ter addressed in a feminine hand to young Jamouneau.
 Miss Curtis demanded that she be allowed to read the letter. In vain the young man explained that he had not opened the letter. that he didn't know what it contained; that he didn't think it fair to hold him res, ponsible for what might be in a let ter he hadn't read, and that anyway it was written long before he be- came engaged to Miss Curtis.
 Miss Curtis insisted. There should be perfect confidence or no confidence at all Then she read the letter.
 Young sJarnouneau could obtain a fair idea of the contents of the let ter he hadn't read by watching the rrir scernful smiles, then frowns and fiu ally tears At the end of the read ing the young woman and her moth CT left for their home.
 Yesterday Miss Curtis announced that her engagement was off for good but neither she nor any member of her family could be induced to tell what the letter contained.

DenunCiati0n Of Divorce At K. Of
 C. Convention
Baseball Talked of TOO--Detroit's Mayor, a Knight, Jokes With, Supreme Knight of Philadel- phia

Detroit, Mich, Aug. 2-A strenu- ous denunciation of divorce, which he characterized as "legalized poly gamy'' and a plea for all Christians to join in fighting political corrup- tion, marked the sermon of the Rev F. J. Van Antwerp, of Detroit, one of the principal features of the open ing session of the national convention of the Knights of Columbus.
 Pennant aspira tions of the Ameri- can league leaders had prominent mention in the exercises at Knights of Columbus hall, following the reli- gious service. Mayor William B. Thompson. wearing the badge of the order, of which he is an active mem Der, welcomed the delegates to the city. After referring to the high po- sition of Detroit in the business and commercial world, the mayor turned to Supreme Knight Flaherty, who is Phfladelphian, and said:
 And with due consideration for our supreme knight, believe we have the greatest ball team in the world.
 When the applause which greeted this remark had subsided, MT. F1ah- erty replied:
 T am not so sure as Mayor Thomp- son seems to be of the outcome of the struggle now being waged between our two cities. Anyway, the strug-
 
 relation of brotherhood existing be- tween the Detroit and Philadelphia councils of the Knights of Columbus. ''
 This sentimen was warmly cheered by the delegates, who upon the con- clusion of MT. Flaherty's address, went into executive session to deal with the routine business of the or- der.
 A banquet was rendered the dele gates last night
 The membership of the order now amounts to 263, 300 and this mem bers ship extends all over this country and during the past year was extended into Porto Rico. Seventy-nine new councils were instituted during the last year and the condition of the in- surance fund is satisfying.
 During the last year $549,0 was paid out in death benefits, making a total of $5,19S,953 since the date of organization. Three councils were merged, one in Connecticut, one in New York and one in Pennsylvania
 There's are now seventy-two coun- cils in Connecticut having a total membership of S,S62, New York leads the list with PIT councils and the magnificent total membership of 42,- 62O.
