Death op Capt. Charles B. Tehky, of the Tessas Rifles.

The St. Joseph (Tensas parish) Gazette, of the 12th, contains a report of the death of Capt. Charles B. Tenny, of the Tensas Rifles, in CoL Seymour's (6th) Regiment Louisiana Volunteers. The report runs that the Captain was killed in endeavoring to suppress a riot, and that a telegraphic dispatch to that effect was received by the deceased Captain's father, in Jefferson county, Mus.

Camp Lewis. This beautifully sitaitJ camp, in Greenville, near Carrollton, on the line of tbe railroad, was the scene of much enjoyment, yesterday. Tbe day was very fine, and, after the morning parade and drill, was devoted till sundown to the reception of visits 'by the volunteers in camp from their friends in town. Of course, as the day was so tempting, and the distance so short, there was no lack of ladies among these and the result was a scene of much animation and gaiety Gen. Labnzan, who is in corcnand of Camp Lewis, has some finely drilled infantry companies under instruction there.

Their proficiency in drill and evolutions would do high credit to regular corps of long standing. The General's headquarters are very spacious and comfortable, and command a fine view of the entire encampment. His staff has just been increased by the addition thereto ef Capt. Harmon Doane, as paymaster. By the by, we are informed that an erroneous inference has been drawn, in some quarters, from a misunderstood reading of a paragraph in yesterday's Picayune.

It is not the entire encampment that is to break up this week, but only that camp of the Washington Artillery, which belongs to it. Camp Lewis will continue for the present, aud, we learn, is shortly to have large accessions to its numbers. This morning, at sunrise, there was a fine show of the troops, on both sides of the fence, the infantry on the lower and the artillery on the upper. The companies were drilled in the manual and in marching, and made a very good appearance. The artillery, under Capt.

Hodgson, went through the battery drill and evolutions, with their six field pieces, and the horses. The company, under the indefatigable lnstcnction of their capable captain, have made rapid and notable proficiency in artillery practice, and can now take the field with assured effect. One day this week, probably on Wednes day, it is the purpose of Gen. Labnr.au to have a grand review of all the troops in Camp Lewis, and an evening drees parade, at which the Governor of the State and his staff, Gen. Twiggs, and, if he arrives.

Gen. Lovell, are expected to be present. The artillery, upon tbat occasion, will fire a Confederate salute. We may expect to see quite an assemblage of visitors in camp upon that occasion. The Musical Entertain meit To Morrow.

As was to have been expected, tbe announcement that several of tbe most fash ionable and socially prominent ladies of our eity were about to give an amateur concert, at Odd Fellows' Hall, for the benefit of the volunteers of Louisiana and their families, has created no little interest and excitement in our city. The proposed concert will take place to morrow (Tuesday) evening the pro gramme, wtucn may De seen under our amusement head, is most choice and the performers are moet capable and accomplished musicians. Of coarse it will be a brilliant aflair. 17 The Cotton Planters' Convention meets in Macon, to day. The Corfederates' Barbecue.

This will be a grand festival. It takes place on Tnonday next, azd the arrangements for it are on the most liberal and extensive Kale. For the details of them we would direct the readers attention to the advertisement in au other column of the Picayune. One of the great features of the day will be a grand dress parade of the whole regiment (8 companies) of the Confederate Guards, In the afternoon. Another will be, we hear it whispered, a ball.

The Melalrie fjonrse will present a ny ap. pearance, beyond all question, on Thursday. .11 a it aay ana evening. 00 aye THE BATTLE OP THE PASSES. The flotilla of Captain Hollins has cleared the Mississippi now of its Yankee invaders.

The lesson they have received will keep them at a respectful distance for a while, which they are. not likely to shorten without great eantion, and in overwhelming iorce. iney will" very slowly, even by day, and every drifting log by night will make them think the Gyascutis is loose again. The novel machine, which was tne suoject of so much speculation and doubt, has tri umphantly vindicated the confidence of its projectors. It was an experiment, and a eoitly one but it bP9 succeeded, and it pays.

The first trial has shown it is capable of de stroking any vessel upon which it can be brought to bear, and that it is impenetrable to gun tbotwT very heavy metal. If it is the Vincennes which lies a wreck on the bar, tbe Manassas has, with one stroke of her prow, run down a sloop of war of 700 tons and mounting 20 guns. She may possibly be got off, but the deadlinees of the stroke of the Manassas is not the less proved. The R'chuiond would have shared tbe same or a worse fate but for a derangement of the engines, which is said to be not a serious one. The principles on which the machine was constructed are, however, folly tested, and the result is unmixed satisfaction.

The experience which has been received from the trial will suffice to suggest improvements to secure her against any miehaps hereafter, and woe be to the Yankee vessel on which she is let looee the next Ume. Her Bucceea has supplied he desideratum for cheap defences of our coasts and rivers hereafter. A few such machines as the Manassas, in aid of proper shore batteries, would be more than a match for any invading fleet We have no navy, by which to cope with the Yankee Government en the high sea's. It has robbed us of our share of that part of the public property of the Union, and is using it against us with all the vigor of relentless animosity. It is aiming at our coasts and our ports, and if troops be allowed to plant themselves upon our shores, it may cost us long and desperate struggles to drive them out, for it must be done, at all risks and by very sacrifice and exertion.

It is best to fight them at once, at the outset, to keep them from getting a footing any where from which they can seek to penetrate iato any exposed region of the interior, either to occupy or to ravage. We must fight them, therefore, at once, and at all points, and we have cheering omens of the glorious victories that await us. A noble beginning has been made at Pensa eola, and in the mouth of the Mississippi. We feel our. strength we know our danger, and we have tried tbe vanguards of the enemy with advantages, which cover our heroic leaders and our gallant soldiers aad sailors with glory." The annals of naval enterprise record nothing more daring, or more than the attack of Capt.

Hollins on the Yankee fleet in the Pastes. With an inferior force, he assailed a Federal fleet, carrying double tbe number of guns which he carried, and with a few improvised gun boats, drove the enemy, panic struck, out of the river, and stranded the best of them on the bars, and left one of Ihbir largest ships a hulk, to be dismantled end abandoned It opens a lustrous page in the naval history of the Confederate Statee. If the Vincennes be a loss, the owners of the Manassas will, we believe, have done a nice thing for themselves. There are two laws of the Confederate States which grant bounties to such achieve ments. By one, the owners of private armed vetsele are entitled to receive, in Confederate bonds, from the Treasury of the Confederate States, ttcenly per cent, of tbe value of any armed public vessel of tbe United States which they may destroy, including therein, the value of the armament, the valuation to be made by a naval board appointed by the President.

By another law a bounty of $20 is paid from the public treasury for each prisoner, on board of any armed ship or vessel belonging to the United States, at the commencement of ua engagement, which should be burnt, sunk or destroyed by any vessel, commissioned, as aforesaid, (as privateer), which shall be of equal or inferior force, the same to be divided, as in other cases of prize money." We hope the event and the construction of the law will be such as to give to the owners of the vessel whieb will have destroyed the Federal armed ship, both of these gratuities. It will go far to indemnify them for the out lay they have made, and encourage similar enterprises again. tjF'At tbe latest accounts from the passes below, we learn tbat there were only two Federal vessels to be seen. They are supposed to be the Richmond and the Viacennes. The Niagara went eastward, before the attack of Saturday, and the Water Witch has since been sent off probably with dispatches.

Tbe Ivichmond and tbe Vincennes are afloat The other sloop of war is not to be seen, and it is inferred that she has sunk. The damaged one is believed to have been the Preble ky inspection of the remaining sloop, which is a corvette. The Preble was used as a school ship for the Naval Academy, and bad an extra deck npon her. This could not have been distinguished durina: the action. The lumber landed at the Head of the Pastes by the Federals was not burned.

It is good oak, and was evidently intended to mount gun carriages. It will be a good prise to the Confederates.

Army of the Potomac. Review af tne Laalslana Brlcade ky Preelaeat Davis. Special Corraspondsr.ee of th Flcayene. Fairfax, Headquarters Army Potomac, October 4, 1861. Yesterday was a very excitinsr and inter esting day here.

The occasion was the review by President Davis of about 15,000 men encamped in the vicinity the Louisiana Brigade, Gen. Walker; Battalion Washington Artillery, Major Walton; Longstreet's Brigade, Cocke's Brigade, Jones's Brigade and several troop of cavalry. There are several other brigades with artillery and cavalry attached in the neighborhood, bat they were at tbe time on special duty, which prevented their paiticipation in the display. Tbe LooieiaDa Brigade received their notice about 11 o'clock, and by noon were ordered to be at Gt rmantown some two miles distant from their various encampments. A large portion of each regiment were at the time engaged ia epecial dnties, taking down and airing tents, cleaning up camp, washing and arranging clothes, when tbe order came.

A general court martial, also, was in progress. Bat in a moment everything was dropped, dress suits were doncd and in legs time tbau it takes me to write this each regiment was in marching order. Tbe Ctb, Col. Seymoar, tiled out first and took its place onaa eminence aojoiniog the encampment after it came tbe 7th, Col. Hays the 8th, Col.

Kelly 9th, Col. Taylor, and Wheat's Battalion, in tbe order rained. In tbe same order, also, they formed in brigade, nnder the personal command of Gen. Walker, and at once took np the line of march to Gerwantown, when they were drawn up on tbe extreme left along the road leading to Fairfax Oa their right were Join bb Brigade, Cocke's Brigade, Battalion Waetiingtoi 'Artillery, and Longatreet'ts Brigade in the order named. Tbe whole line was about two rrilaa and a half long.

The Louisiana Brigade alone extended over a space of upwards of half a mile. Tbe President arrived on the ground at precisely 12 o'clock, accompanied by Gen. Beauregard and their respective staffs, and escorted by a company of cavalry. They rode up first to the extreme left, when they were received by Gen. Walker, to whom they paid many high compliments for tbe bardsome manner in which he bad made the important demonstration on the Potomac, but a few days before.

The President said it was the boldest and most daring expedition of the war, and, being accomplished in about half the time contemplated in the order, aud without the loss of a single man, was very creditable, not only to the general but to all who had part in it. a oa interview enaea, we irreBiaeni roae on a little beyond the column and then turned and passed slowly in review before the whole line, which was drawn up in order of battle, saluting each captain as he approached the head of tbe company. This done he took up his position on the extreme right, when the brigade broke into platoons and in that order filed again before bim. As they did so the President paid the general many nigh compliments, not only for the fullness of the brigade, be. for the excellence of its discipline and drill.

Subsequently he passed the other brigades aud artillery in review in very much the same manner. Tbe President looked very thin and pale, but rode erect, and seemed in excellent spirits. There was also in his motions, as he saluted the captains and other officers, a certain energy of action which showed that his well known determined spirit was still alive. Though apparently just off a sick bed. he seemed to me more firm and confident than ever, as his eye was more clear.

In the course of the afternoon, couriers brought in tbe intelligence that, in addition to thoe which opened few days ago, several new and important batteries on the lower Potomac bad been unmasked, when the President remarked tbat the enemy have lost as good as their right arm." I suppose," he added, "they will attempt to take the batteries," and soon he left for Manassas, en, route to Richmond. Later in the evening the news came in tbat the enemy were threatening our batteries near Evansport, by two expeditions in considerable numbers from Washington and Fortress Monroe. In consequence of this, three days' rations have been served out to the whole 2d corps of tbe army, and everything again is in motion. Capt. Tenny, of the Tensas Rifles, 6th Regiment, accidentally shot himself with a pistol this morning, and soon alter died.

He was considered a capable and accomplished officer. The enemy in our immediate front are very quiet, and give no indications of any intention to press upon our lines. They are, however, committing all sorts of depredations upon tbe people in the vicinity of the river, and burning down the forests in every direction, to prevent tbe erection of masked batteries, and to guard 8gainet surprise. In several directions they were simply felling the trees to erect abattis. A large number of houses, which have been occupied by us for various purposes, have also been burned.

Men, women and children are fleeing in all dirscaons. The 1st Brigade is engaged in removing tbe rail and ties of the Loudon and Hampshire Railroad, which are to be brought into Fairfax. Tbe weather bas again become very warm. especially in tbe middle cf the day. The nights have also lost tbe refreshing temperature which gave such elasticity to the morning air a few days ago.

Lieut Slaughter, taken captive under a white flag at Fort Pickers, has been released. He went over for the relief of our wounded sod to bury tbe dead.

The Mobile Tribune, of the 11th, has the following accounts One of our friend ha allowed ns to extrsct the following from a Pensacola letter of Wedueaday Peksacola, Wednesday, Oct. 9. I am feeling like the very mischief this morning; bave just reiurLed from an expedition to Santa Rosa. Twelve hundred aud fifty il us left Pensacola wharf at 11 o'clock last night, and landed on Santa Rosa Leach at two cluck. deployed In two columns drove tbe enemy from the batteries, spiked their gun, barned tbe rommUrary store, stored full of pro visit ns, the buildiug supposed to be intended for a alio all Billy WiUou' tents, aud drovethe entire force encamped inside the fort, though I tell you we bi.ueut our victory at an advanced rate.

We aie over one undred abort thia niornfiig, and bave about fifteen or twenty in tbe hospital. Gen. Anderson wa wouided, but not mortally. We took seven prisoner among them i Msjor Vogde, (Kill Brown took him) but I tell you thorn Millie ride, bullet do whistle ein sore. 1 eor eft scot free agaiu, though I had soue close shaves, but it is awful to see tiijcbtatly wounds on the poor fcil.ms.

I really cauno; help crying to ere how they sutler. Two Louisiana Regulars have just been (hot and killed instantly by their comrades ia a row. The fbllowiig is an extract from another letter, which one of our citizens has given to ns Camp Cotiketal, Oct. 9, 1861, 12 Last night our Iorce made a sortie on Santa Rosa Island. The force wai 1400 men.

Tbey succeeded la burning Bill; Wilson' Zouave encampment, apikiog tbeir batteries, and killing; many, aad bringing some 20 prisoner. Tbe skirmish is described as terrible. Our company wa represented by 13 men, who acted a (piker and burner, one of whom waa killed, named John Barge, and one wounded, Walter Taggie. About Sftv of our foreea ar killed and fifty mora wonnded and missing. Gen.

Anderson, the commanding; aflicer, waa wonnded in the arm. Several of ear ft: cars wers killed. The most intense excitement reigned through camp after tbe party left it. They were selected aad ordered off without giving notice to the balaao of tha company. Great waa the desire by those left to go with the small party.

They have brought over muskets, cartridge and cane and one of toe boys baa a prisoner belonging to the U. S. regulars, who is bow ia camp. Extract of a letter deted Camp Costikental, Pissacola, Oot. 9, 1161.

A glorious fight at last. Billy Wilson'a whole regiment and others made to ran and tbeir entire encampment burned np. There war only aixteea of our company engaged in the expedition, and they resolved from Col. Jackson the highest compliments for their stssdines and bravery. Tbey composed the firing party to set fire and bam, sniks guns and blow op magazines and right gallantly have they dene their duty.

God bleas them Poor urge is was killsa and Walter Tugglet i dangerously wounded. Our boys captured muskets, fcc, from the enemy. Only tot a alight mistake, wa would to day be in possession of Fort Pickens. We expect mora work every hour. The Pensacola Observer, of the lOia furnishes the following account On night before last a party of Confederate, stationed here and at the Navy Yard, went over to Santa Rosa Island, nnder tbe command of Brig.

Ova. Anderson, commander in chief, CoL Jackson, of the 5th Georgia regiment, CoL Chalmers, of the 9th Mississippi leg trent, and Col. Anaeraon, of the 1st Florida regiment, each commanding their respective divuiosn, to give Col. Billy Wilson a surprise. It ay be well to remark tbat Wilson and hia pirates bave been some time fixing themselves comfjru fe'j on tbe and that they had built a large storehouse and it with provisions.

This oorboys thought too good for such men, aud were determined to destroy tbem. They crossed over the bay and marched up the beach, killing picket whenever hiied by one, Ld npon arriving near enough opened fire npon the Yaukeee, who bad by this tims become aroused and returned the fire. For two or throe hours the skirmishing was kept up, when our side were or deied to charge bayonets. This tb Yanka oottld a it stand, and fled towards Fort Pickens. Our men then proceeded to burn everything they oould find tents, the large rorehousertogether with the provisions, ko.

miking a complete mas ot ruins 01 toe nice encampment of the notorious Billy and his thieve. They even gathered tbe splendid guns left by tfce frlghteaed and cowardly Vandals and piled them np and buret them, besides spiking a number of gun found la th batteries, and burning the carriages of tbe aame. Ti 1 a just retribution Tor the act of burning toe soaoeaer Judrh some time ago. We cannot state oositively the loss on either side, but the boy say they left tbe ground pretty wall potted with them. They brought fifteen of th Yankee over yesterday, and bold them as prisoaara of war, one of them a sergeant, and another ao tee a personage than Major Vogdea.

Sergeant Rees and Private Laphan, of Company Georgia Gray, took the flag off Billy Wilson' marquee, and were the first to put fire to the tents. All honor is due tbe brave and chlvalron Soataerm boys, who did their work so boldly and triumphantly. It wss a complete succes on tbeir part. Tbe property tbey destroyed waa of great value, and we opine there will be many a hungry Yankse on Saat Rosa, before tbe provisions are replaced. We go to press at present with this meagre aecoant al this engagement.

This evening we shall have the full particulars, end give a full statement. A piece of Billy's flag csn be see a at aur ofioe, kindly presented to a by Serg't Rees, of the Stk Georgia Regiment, who might tave beea seen yesterday morning leading a Urge live Yankee through this city. Among the killed we regret to announce bleats. Nelm and Sajres, and have beea kindly furalahed' the following statement of the casualties ol tha Clinch Rifles by one of tbeir lieutenants: Killed, J.

Hargis aud Green, at the Ladiea' Hospital.

He is vet in a critical condition. We learn that the cowardly and brutal beast of wiisoB's command returned to tne Battle held after our nien had lea, and murdered the wounded men left on the field. Tbeir every aet goes to show that wear fighting a base end pusillanimous pack," whose rotten aud cowardly principles prompt tbem to any acts of meanness and cowardice. How craven beartad aust have been the wreuh who gave the order for tbe murder ef wounded and helpleii enemy. Ajuit God will certalrly vi.it npon them a just aud terrible retribution.
