Commercial says that the New Jersey brigade marched Saturday merning; they will doubtless complete the preparations for preventing the passage of the rebela over into Maryland under cover of guns of their Potomac batteries. The same letter says all the regiments of the army of the Potomac have their camp equipments, wagons, ambulances, horses, mules and other appurtenances ready for taking the field at an hour’s notice. The organization of wagon trains has been one of the moat difficult of taske, The schooner Andromeda, from Savannab, reports that on October 3lst at sundown, off Hatteras, she saw a fleet of thirty steamers but no sailing vessels bound south.

Rosencranz’s bead quarters up to Saturday evening, Nov. 2d, On Friday morning at 8 o’clock, the enemy opened fire with two guns from a point opposite Gauley Ferry and Camp Tompkins, and a noisy fire of muskets, The object was evident to cut off the supply trains. They succeeded in sinking the ferry-boat on the Gauley and threw about forty shells into the camp of the llth Obio, but none of our men were killed and only about balfa doz en wounded, The majority of the enemy’s shells did not explode, and their musketry was wild aud irregular, The ferry-boat which had been sunk by the enemy’s shot on Friday was raised that night and comSE nication restored.

Schenck’s brigade was afew miles above . the junction of the Gauley and New rivers. . Gen. Cox’s brigade and Gen. Roseucranz’s . quarters pear the junction of the rivers and . between them. Gen. Bonbam’s quarters were below the junction on tbe right of the iriver. Floyd’s force is believed to be about . 7,500 men, It was believed in camp that . Schenck’s and Bonbam’s brigades would be thrown across the river above and below Floyd and catch him, The loess of telegrarapbic communination was occasioned . by the alarm of the operator, who, when . the firing opened, sent a hasty despatch to Clarksburg announcing a battle, and then commenced to move his office up the Gauley. He was two or three miles up the riv/er wheo he was overtaken by orders from Rosencranz to return, and while returning . his wagon wae driven over a precipice and . his apparatus destroyed. Floyd’s demon. stration wesrather agreeable to Rosen~ . cranz’s army than otherwise. Rosencranz . was certain he could hold bis own, and expected to bag bis assailants. Col. Sedgewick of the 2d Kentucky regiment was reported wounded. PuiLapevpuia, Nov, 4tb,—In the U, 8S. Circuit Court this morning, the case of the pirate Petrel, was called, but postponed . till next Monday. While the assistant Dietrict Attorney was urging the trial, Judge Greer said: “He would not consent to have . the regular business of the Court interrupted. It seemed like a farce to try prisoners at the time when the country had civil war. ‘The dictates of humanity would counsel . sea the same as though they were taken on land, and be could not understand the poli‘ey of the Government holding the former . rebelion be crushed, and God grant that it . may be speedily, and then these men can . be tried for treason or piracy.’”’ He would assist, no matter how much he might be called a Jeffries or Scraggs.

It is uaderstood Gen. Scott goes out io the same steamer. Gen. McClellan has been oceupied to-day in aecertaining the strength, condition and disposition of the army of the United States, the command of which hae suddenly devolved upon him. He has called on the War Department fora statement of the whole estimate of material and how dietributed. He will be oecopied several days in systemizing and arranging these matters, so that the burden of the management of the military affairs may be safely confided to the Adjutant General’s offiee, and afford the General an opportunity to devote bis attention especially to the affairs of the army of the Potomac, remaining under his immediate command. The N. Y. Tribune’s dispatch says the Resolute arrived at Washington last night, Nov. 3d,and reports that several of our soldiers bave been wounded by the shot and shell from the batteries at Shipping Point. By order of the War Department the Provost Marshal of Alexandria bas been directed to suspend the exercise of the civil functions he had recently performed, and to dismiss all the civil cases which he has taken cognieance of.
