Eastern News,—By the Eastern dispatches published yesterday, it appears that a battle was progressing in Western Virginia on Satarday last, between the Federals under Rosencrana, and the rebels ander Floyd.— By to-morrow, or next day at most, we shall doubtless have the result of the fight. ‘The Federal troops have heretofore been successful, in every important movement in Western Virginia, and we bave conofdence that Rosencranz will prove himself more than a match for Floyd. The army of the Potomac is represented as thoroughly organized, and everything ready for active operations, From Missouri and Kentueky we have nothing of special interest. Narrow Escars.—After the capture of Fort Hatteras, one of the shells from a Federal vessel was found to have pierced the rebels’ powder magazine, without bursting. On examination it appeard that the gunner, whose duty it was, had forgotten to tear off a small leathbern cap, ordinarily pat on for safety. This was the only shell that penetrated the magazine, andthe only one thrown that did not explode. Had the cap been removed, the fortification would have been blown up, and nota handful of the rebel garrieon would have been left alive to be captored as prisoners. Minrrary.—Col. Judab of the Fourth, and Col, Kellogg of the Fifth California Regiment, have resigned their commissions, and returned to their positions as Captains in the regular army. It is understood that they have been ordered East. The Governor bas. appointed Col. Ferris Forman to the command of the Fourth Regiment, and Major G. W. Bowie to command of the Fifth Regiment, Col. Forman commanded one of the Lilinois regiments in the Mexican war, and Major Bowie was also in the service of his country in Mexico. Tue intelligence from Japan is te the effect that foreign consuls bad agreed to submit a joint statement of the condition of the country to their respeotive governments.

We announced briefly, in our last, that & Mr. Fogle had beea murdered at Dutch Flat, last Monday night. From o gentle man who resides at Duteb Fiat, aod who was at Nevada yesterday in search of the murderer, we bave obtained the following particolare: It appears that a man named McKennon, who resides near Red Dog, went to Duteh Fiat on Monday, got. very mueb intoxicated, aod remained there through the night. Some time after midoight McKennon broke into Mr, Fogle’s house, in search of a friend named Davis. Mr. Fogle got up aod told bim that Davis was not there; M’Kenon asserted that he was there, and insisted on searching the house. [t was evident that McKenoon was too drunk to reason with, and Fogle at length pat bim out of the door. He came in again, and was put out a second time; Fogle picking up a stiek and following him out with the intention of driving bim off. By this time, Mrs. Fogle bad got up, and heard her busband talking with McKennon, endeavoring to make bim leave; bat their voices were drowned by the rattling of the stage which was just leaving town. After the stage bad left, Mrs. Fogle beard nothing of the men, but supposed her busband had gone off with McKennon to put him in charge of his friends, As he did oot return, Mrs. Fogle eat up the remainder of the night, and on going tothe door about six o’clock, she discovered her busband’s body lying near the bouse. He had been stabbed nine times, and must have die] iostantly. MecKennon afterwards went toa saloou, laid down on a bench and slept till morning. Theinmates of the saloon noticed that there was blood on his clothee, but as he was quite drunk, and there were a few seratebes on bis face, they though nothing of it. He did not leave until arter it was known that Fogle bad been murdered, and was informed by some one that he was suspected as the murderer. He went back to Red Dog on Tuesday morning, collected a few dollars from some of bis friends, and bas not been heard from since. Mr. Fogle formerly resided at Walloupa, and leaves a wife and several children. . McKennon formerly lived at French Cor. ral, but for some time past, has been mining . in the vicinity of Red Dog. He has always had the reputation of being a peaceable mao, aod we are informed by those who know bim that he is not in the habit of drinking to excess, a nr ee Accipent.—On Tuesday evening, the steamer Panama left San Francisco for Mazatlan, Soon after leaving the wharf a salute was fired, when the gun burst, killing a Mexican, Jaun Subito, and injuring several others.

Ia the same month twenty were discharged, three died, and one eloped—making an increase of four during the mooth, The total number ia the Asylum on November ist, was 434, Iris reported that five bnndre@Secessionists are encamped on the Colorado river, aod that parties are organizing in Tuolumne, San Joaquio, and Mariposa couaties to join them.

Thompson, commander of s rebel force io southeastern Missouri, bas issued a procIumation in answer to Fremont’s, in whieb he tbrestens to “bang, draw and quarter’ a “minion of Abrabam Lincoln,” for every rebel bridge-burner put to death under the proclamation of Fremont. “ Hanging, drawing and quartering” is an obsolete and barbarous method of punishment ; but baving been revived by the barbarian Jeff. Thompson it is well enough to kaow what the punishment is, “ Chitty’s Crimioal . g Law,” vol. I, page 701, says of this punishment: The least offensive form which is given in the books is that the offender be ca back tothe place from whence he came, and from thence be drawn to the place of execution, and then be hanged by the neck and cut down alive and then his entrails be taken out and burned before his face, and his head cut off, and his body divided into four quarters, . his head and quarters disposed of at the King’s pleasure. Substitute “Jeff. Davis’s’’ for the “ King’s” pleasure, and, asthe lawyers say, you have the “fall intent and meaning” of Jeff. Thompson’s proclamation. eearainitionnn tee Tux Supreme Court on Tue Senpar Law. —The Supreme Court on October 31st, oo the petition of Ralph Bird of Butte county for a writ of habeas corpus, decided as follows: We think there is no ground shown in the . tition for the issuance of the writ. We have . eld already that the Sunday Law, as it iseom-. monly called, is constitutional. We are en-. tirely satisfied with that decision. It seems that the petitioner was convicted of a violation . of this law. He claims in his petition that he . did not violate its provisions; thathe kept a. bar ina hotel as apart of the business of the . hotel, and this is the sole charge against him. If . this be true, he must avail himself in some oth. er mode of this matter of defense. The writ of . habeas corpus was not framed to retry issues . of fact, or to review the proceedings of a legal . trial. The complaint does not show that the bar was kept as apart of the business of the . hotel. Petition refused. The opinion of the Court in this ease does not decide the question as to the right of . hotel keepers to sell liquor on Sunday. The . law clearly gives them that right aod juries will so construe it. Tur Oty Postace Stamps.—The Third Assistant Postmaster-General, in. reply toa Bostonian, who supposed that the old postage stamps are repudiated by the Government, says: The Department does not repudiate the old stamps. The instructions which have been issued to Postmasters contemplated only a prevention of the use of nearly $200j000 in value of postage stamps and envelopes: for which the Government has never been paid. It wasa study how best to gain a National result without any or the least damage to individual interest, and as yet it has been proved that the plan adopted was the best. On the same subject the Washington correspondentof the N. Y. Times has the following: “he Postoffice Department has: virtually decided that it will not repudiate the old postage stamps. The whole idea of making the change was a great error, the only object to be gained being the possible prevention of the use of about $200,000 worth) of stamps furnished to rebel Postmasters, for which the Government has not been paid. Itis doubtful, after all the troubles and expense of the new stamps, if the object sought has really been attained, as in all Her pewand a large proportion of the old stam ad been used up the rebels before the change was effected. I suppose, however, somebody got a job by the change. Prize Vesse18.—Thus faz the rebelé are a little ahead in the seizure of vessels at sea;:but not as largely as may be supposed, whem it is remembered tne rebel States have but very: little commerce afloat. The aggregates are as follows : Seized by rebels.. -64 vessels. .$2;791,400 Seized by U.S. Navy.52 “ «++ 1,917,400 Total..-116 vessels $4,708,600 Thie does not include the vessels seized in New York, Boston, etc., by the officers of those ports, the value of which will exceed those captured by the navy, and we presume it does not include Northern veasels captured in Southern ports while the rebels were carrying on the war as a single. handed game. — Tue New Orleans Delta, of Oetober 10th, . says: We express the opinion, based upon) what we believe to be a reasonable hope, that . our army of the Ohio—that is, the various com. mands of Lee, Johnston, McCullough and Price, which will constitute it, when combined, will be able to make their winter quarters in . Cincinnati and adjacent eligible points in Ohio, so as to command all the interior lines of communication eastward branching off from the . commercial capital of that State. An O_p CLAtm.—It is said that the heirs of Robinson Crusoe have instituted a suit to recover the Island of Juan Fernandez, fownding their claim upon the ground that he was “‘monarch of allhe surveyed,” A Secession flag. was found attached toa wagon in Sacramento and captured by some school-boys, who bombarded the wagon with stones. between Watsonville A Linz of aioe constructed by Januaand Santa Cruz is to ryTus citizens of Stockton have presented Col. . worth, 9600 pveretona 4 Feperat. Prisoners 4¥ Mopits.—The Mobile Tribune notes the arrival there of 250 Federal prisouers from Richmond, en route for New Orleans, on the 19th September, and says: an immense erowd at the recepThere was d tion at the depot, but no indignity was Ps upon the guests. A few boys, most of m in the news business, found it difficult to kee their to still, but the spectators stop; the little rascals, and the prisoners went without insult to their quarters. A few persons were allowed to enter the prisoners’ qparters during the day ard converse with them. Most of them were in exeellent spirits, and all in ood health. They appeared to have only one idea, that there was but one folly committed on either side, and that was that the North and South should have fallen out. A very intellitone among them said he was now im Eepee that the two great powers—England and ld intereede and settle the matter, North would now be willing to compromise. When told it was too late to compromise he could not understand it. He asked “ Why?’ When answered that because the South wished to settle the whole matter now and forever, and she would not consent to compromise, he appeared to be amazed. We learn there are several among them who have reviously lived in Mobile for several'years.— e of those we had a conversation with, but to the last he denied his identity. Asan insFrance—wou as he thought the tance of how Southerners treat ther prisoners, . we will state a fact. There were some two or three of them barefooted. An Alabamian raised a subscription amdgave them money to buy shoes, and also a nice little sum to distribute’ among the most needy. European Lyre.igence.—News from Europe by the last steamer shows that the rebel emissaries in London andsParis were confident sad noisy, and believed that necessities of the mannfactaring interests will be lead to an interference in the American contest for the purpose of breaking the blockade to procure » supply of cotton. KM is nevertheless evident that their cause is losing grouad, both with the London people and press. The London Post, (Palmerston’s organ), has a strong article against any interference and expresses the fallacy of a notion that a recognition of the rebel States would reopen the cotton trade; it considers, on the contrary, that their recognition would only increase the vigor of the blockade, and that any interference woukl be an act of war. The London Shipping Gazette continues to denounce the conduet of the blockade and the wrongs done to British snbjects, and says that some action on the part of the British Government is indispensable. The London Times thinks it not unlikely that the moment the drain of specie commences, the financial community will bave its bill run. Count de Sager, a lineal descendant of Rochambean of Ameriean Revolutiouary faine, bas tendered bis military services to the President, and been assured that be will be aceepted. A similar anawer has beeu given to the Baron de Schonen, a descendant of General Lafayette. It is expected they will coon reach the United States, A SvuGGEsTION TO THR GOVERNMENT.— The New York Evening Post has the following bit of sharp irony on the President’s modification of Fremont’s proclamation : The recent reply ef Col. Mulligan at Lexington, Mo., to Gen, Price’s semmons to surrender, a to have been unauthorized by any act of Congress. Itis tobe hoped it may not add to the difficulties of the “situation” by breeding dissensions in Congress, and in the public mind—although it is not impossible that the Commander-in-Chief may direct some modification of the reply, as having been extraconstitutional, and as tending to abridge if not totally defeat the operation of the writ of habeas corpus. The Government, it is understood, has the question under discussion, AMONG recent shipments from Boston, there were 383 barrels of shoe-pegs for Liverpool. It has been stated that shoe-pegs were invented in 1818, by Jos. Walker, of Hopkinton, Mass. Large quantities of such pegs are now sent to Germany, where they are much used in the manufacture of children’s toys. Goop ror ILLINoIs.—Illinois is doing better for the Federal Union than any other State.

I, page 701, says of this punishment: The least offensive form which is given in the books is that the offender be ca back tothe place from whence he came, and from thence be drawn to the place of execution, and then be hanged by the neck and cut down alive and then his entrails be taken out and burned before his face, and his head cut off, and his body divided into four quarters, . his head and quarters disposed of at the King’s pleasure. Substitute “Jeff. Davis’s’’ for the “ King’s” pleasure, and, asthe lawyers say, you have the “fall intent and meaning” of Jeff. Thompson’s proclamation. eearainitionnn tee Tux Supreme Court on Tue Senpar Law. —The Supreme Court on October 31st, oo the petition of Ralph Bird of Butte county for a writ of habeas corpus, decided as follows: We think there is no ground shown in the . tition for the issuance of the writ. We have . eld already that the Sunday Law, as it iseom-. monly called, is constitutional. We are en-. tirely satisfied with that decision. It seems that the petitioner was convicted of a violation . of this law. He claims in his petition that he . did not violate its provisions; thathe kept a. bar ina hotel as apart of the business of the . hotel, and this is the sole charge against him. If . this be true, he must avail himself in some oth. er mode of this matter of defense. The writ of . habeas corpus was not framed to retry issues . of fact, or to review the proceedings of a legal . trial. The complaint does not show that the bar was kept as apart of the business of the . hotel. Petition refused. The opinion of the Court in this ease does not decide the question as to the right of . hotel keepers to sell liquor on Sunday. The . law clearly gives them that right aod juries will so construe it. Tur Oty Postace Stamps.—The Third Assistant Postmaster-General, in. reply toa Bostonian, who supposed that the old postage stamps are repudiated by the Government, says: The Department does not repudiate the old stamps. The instructions which have been issued to Postmasters contemplated only a prevention of the use of nearly $200j000 in value of postage stamps and envelopes: for which the Government has never been paid. It wasa study how best to gain a National result without any or the least damage to individual interest, and as yet it has been proved that the plan adopted was the best. On the same subject the Washington correspondentof the N. Y. Times has the following: “he Postoffice Department has: virtually decided that it will not repudiate the old postage stamps. The whole idea of making the change was a great error, the only object to be gained being the possible prevention of the use of about $200,000 worth) of stamps furnished to rebel Postmasters, for which the Government has not been paid. Itis doubtful, after all the troubles and expense of the new stamps, if the object sought has really been attained, as in all Her pewand a large proportion of the old stam ad been used up the rebels before the change was effected. I suppose, however, somebody got a job by the change. Prize Vesse18.—Thus faz the rebelé are a little ahead in the seizure of vessels at sea;:but not as largely as may be supposed, whem it is remembered tne rebel States have but very: little commerce afloat. The aggregates are as follows : Seized by rebels... -64 vessels.. .$2;791,400 Seized by U.S. Navy.52 “ «++ 1,917,400 Total...-116 vessels $4,708,600 Thie does not include the vessels seized in New York, Boston, etc., by the officers of those ports, the value of which will exceed those captured by the navy, and we presume it does not include Northern veasels captured in Southern ports while the rebels were carrying on the war as a single. handed game. — Tue New Orleans Delta, of Oetober 10th, .

says: We express the opinion, based upon) what we believe to be a reasonable hope, that . our army of the Ohio—that is, the various com. mands of Lee, Johnston, McCullough and Price, which will constitute it, when combined, will be able to make their winter quarters in .

Prisoners 4¥ Mopits.—The Mobile Tribune notes the arrival there of 250 Federal prisouers from Richmond, en route for New Orleans, on the 19th September, and says: an immense erowd at the recepThere was d tion at the depot, but no indignity was Ps upon the guests. A few boys, most of m in the news business, found it difficult to kee their to still, but the spectators stop; the little rascals, and the prisoners went without insult to their quarters. A few persons were allowed to enter the prisoners’ qparters during the day ard converse with them. Most of them were in exeellent spirits, and all in ood health. They appeared to have only one idea, that there was but one folly committed on either side, and that was that the North and South should have fallen out. A very intellitone among them said he was now im Eepee that the two great powers—England and ld intereede and settle the matter, North would now be willing to compromise. When told it was too late to compromise he could not understand it. He asked “ Why?’ When answered that because the South wished to settle the whole matter now and forever, and she would not consent to compromise, he appeared to be amazed. We learn there are several among them who have reviously lived in Mobile for several'years.— e of those we had a conversation with, but to the last he denied his identity. Asan insFrance—wou as he thought the tance of how Southerners treat ther prisoners, . we will state a fact. There were some two or three of them barefooted. An Alabamian raised a subscription amdgave them money to buy shoes, and also a nice little sum to distribute’ among the most needy. European Lyre.igence.—News from Europe by the last steamer shows that the rebel emissaries in London andsParis were confident sad noisy, and believed that necessities of the mannfactaring interests will be lead to an interference in the American contest for the purpose of breaking the blockade to procure » supply of cotton. KM is nevertheless evident that their cause is losing grouad, both with the London people and press. The London Post, (Palmerston’s organ), has a strong article against any interference and expresses the fallacy of a notion that a recognition of the rebel States would reopen the cotton trade; it considers, on the contrary, that their recognition would only increase the vigor of the blockade, and that any interference woukl be an act of war. The London Shipping Gazette continues to denounce the conduet of the blockade and the wrongs done to British snbjects, and says that some action on the part of the British Government is indispensable. The London Times thinks it not unlikely that the moment the drain of specie commences, the financial community will bave its bill run. Count de Sager, a lineal descendant of Rochambean of Ameriean Revolutiouary faine, bas tendered bis military services to the President, and been assured that be will be aceepted. A similar anawer has beeu given to the Baron de Schonen, a descendant of General Lafayette. It is expected they will coon reach the United States, A SvuGGEsTION TO THR GOVERNMENT.— The New York Evening Post has the following bit of sharp irony on the President’s modification of Fremont’s proclamation : The recent reply ef Col. Mulligan at Lexington, Mo., to Gen, Price’s semmons to surrender, a to have been unauthorized by any act of Congress. Itis tobe hoped it may not add to the difficulties of the “situation” by breeding dissensions in Congress, and in the public mind—although it is not impossible that the Commander-in-Chief may direct some modification of the reply, as having been extraconstitutional, and as tending to abridge if not totally defeat the operation of the writ of habeas corpus. The Government, it is understood, has the question under discussion, AMONG recent shipments from Boston, there were 383 barrels of shoe-pegs for Liverpool. It has been stated that shoe-pegs were invented in 1818, by Jos. Walker, of Hopkinton, Mass. Large quantities of such pegs are now sent to Germany, where they are much used in the manufacture of children’s toys.
