Our city is quite well supplied, now-a-days, with the article of military characters—both officer and private. Major Gen.

Cool weather yet continues—that is comparatively cool.—People are flocking back to town from their cotes in the country. Every one is curious to hear the news from Ireland; and the Irish themselves are half crazy with doubt. Large sums of money have been poured in to the hands of the "Irish Directory" in this city—of course for the purchase of arms and equipments to help the Repealers. It is expected that we shall soon hear of some diplomatic passages between the British and our officers.

Forrest appears at the Broadway theatre next Monday night—one of his "farewell" engagements pre-haps.

Yours, MANHATTAN.
