he Battle of Cane Hill, Arkarias
lii
ST. Louis, Dee. 2.—The following
official despatch from General Ebint,
has been received :
Headquarters,
Battlejicht, 28.
Major General Curtis :
• GENERAL:—Learning that a rebel
force, under Gen. Marinaduke, 8,000
strong, was at Cane Hill, forty miles
north - of - Van Buren, Arkansas, and
that, Gen. Hindman was to join him
to-day, or to-morrow, with a large force
of infantry, for the purpose of making
a desperate effort to enter Missouri,
I determined to strike 2,larmadttke
and destroy him before reintbrcements
arrived. Leaving my transportation
in the rear, I made a forced march of
thirty-five nilles, with about five thous
and men, and attacked hint at about
10 o'clock this morning. Found him
strongly posted on advantageous
ground. After an engagement °fa bout
three hours he, commenced a retreat.
Every foot of the ground was fought
over and hotly contested until near
sundown, when the enemy, finding
that their artillery, which they were
making every ellOrt, to get away, was
about to be captured, sent Colonels
Shelby and Emmett McDonald with a
liag of truce for the ostensible purpose
of -caring for their dead and wounded, .
but with the real object or making
good their retreat to Van Boren.
The casualties of the day I am una
ble to state with accuracy at this time,
as we fought over twelve miles of
ground. One of the rebel officers with
• the flag of truce stated to me that they
had lost sixty in killed, among them
a Lieutenant-Colonel. Aly loss is com
paratively small. Among the woun
ded are Lieutenant-Colone l Jewell and
Lieutenant Johnson, of the Kansas
Sixth—both of them, 1 fear mortally.
•The enemy are badly whipped, aml
will probably not ventur , north of the
Boston Mountain again this Hinter, if
this part of the State is held. As it is
their reliance fur subsistence. and haV
hog eaten out all in the Valley of the
Arkansas, they must soon retreat into
Texas.
- I have t-ent for my transportation
to come up, and shall occupy a po,i
tion :it or near Cane Hill. The rebels
had about ten days' rations of bread,
cooked and in little sacks behind their
saddles, from which it is evident that
they intended Making a desperate ef
fort to force their way North.
Very respeetfully.you r °bed ien t ser

Captain George Johnston, of the 3d
Pennsylvania Cavalry, while in charge
of a cavalry picket on the 280, of No
vember, having, by his negligence, con-
tinned after-rePeiited warnings from
his commanding officer, permitted his
party to be surprised by the enemy,
and himself and a number of his offi
cers and men to be captured. i.. sub
jo.:t to the approval or the President
of the United States, dismissed the
service ti n • disgraceful and onotlicer
like conduct. The commanding gen
eral hopes and believes that a lack of
discipline in the regiment and brigade
to which this officer belonged did not
warrant him in so gross a neglect or
duty. By command of Major General
Burnside :
LEWIS IZICIIMOND, A. A. G
A flag of truce was sent• over the
river this morning for the purpn , e of
conveying two danghters or Dr. Sr I
xester Conway, of Frederieksburg.
,Deserters from the rebels continue
to arrive daily. They represent their
army as being very destitute, particu
larly in clothing. No salt meat has
been issued since they left• Maryland.
• Last week an order• was issued by
General Lee that such soldiers as were
witliout, shoes should make moccasins
from the raw hides, otherwise they
would be required to do duty bare

port
of my expedition into Greenbriar

Ou the tith hist . proceeding agreea
ble to orders. I bivotiacked three miles
beyond Ganley river; on the moving
I marched all day without interrup

and Gen Jenkins with the remainder
of his command on Muddy Creek,
eight miles from Lewisburg.
, however, pushed - forward until
within three miles of Willilimsburg,
where I came upon a wagon train be
longing to General Jenkins' command.
They were encamped for the ni:sht,
intending to load with wheat the fol
lowing: day. I surrounded and cap
tured the whole, consisting of priso
ners and property as follows: Nine
prisoners, namely, J. L. Evans, cap-.
fain and timing assistant commissary
William L. Evans, wagon master; two
wagoners (enlisted men); three wago
ners (citizens); „two negro wagoners,
mid two citizens who were 'pressed
and interested with the grain. .
The property taken was as folrowS:
Seven wagons, twenty-three horses,
four mules, and twenty-four 'sets of
harness. After setting tiro to and de
stroying the wagons and the grain,
with the building it was stored in, I
set out on my return, meeting Captain
Smith with his command on Cllerry
river, ten miles from Gaulcy river ford.

A Disaster in Tennessee,
lAstr\•u.r.a, Dec. 7—[Special to the
Pres.,]--I have just learned that a bat
tle has taken place on our outpost line,
between Our advanced forces and the
rebel troops under ti'en. John Morgan,
the notorious guerilla leader. The
fight took place at Hartsiille this
mornin4.
Col. Moore's brigade NVZI., repulsed
several times by the enemy, and final
ly captured. Our troops inade a des
perate resistance, but were finally
forced to iitleelllll b.
Our loss in killed and wounded is
estimated at sixty, but may be more.
Our killed and wounded were left
upon the battle-field.
Morgan attacked General Fry this
afternoon at Gallatin, but was repul
sed with heavy loss. General Fry has
been reinforced, and is now fbllowing
the enemy closely.
Extinction of Races,
The entire possessions or the United
States are capable of sustaining live
hundred millions of human being 4,
without ditlietilty. At one time all
that vast region was held by the into
of red men, whom we et.ll Indians,
as our fbrefathers did, in courtesy to
the Old theory that Colambus had dis
covered India by a western route. No
one knows how many souls this race
numbered at the time the European
whites first li.gan to colonize on the
main land. But as the Indians had
been sole possessors or the soil thr un
told centuries, they must have amoun
ted to some millions, within the limits
of the regions now belonging to the
United States.
At the present time, according to
' the Census. of 1860. the whole number
of Indians in our States and Territo
ries is only 331,093. This includes
36,002 actually enumerated; the re
mainder are estimated, and it is proba
ble that the estimates largely exceed
the real numbers. In some of the
States there is not one Indian remain
ing, in which, a century ago, they
numbered hundreds of thousands. In
Pennsylvania there are but seven,
three being males and fine• females.--
And yet Pennsylvania once swarmed
with Indians. But without reference
to any particular States and Teri ito
ries, and without calculation as to loss
es by emigration, by war and by dis
ease, we have the startling Chet that of
the race which once possessed our vast
domain, only a little over three hund
red thousand now exist. We appreci
ate this filet, when it is slated that all
the Indians in the United States and
their Territories do not exceed one-half
of the present population of Philadel
phia. Of the whole numbor there can
not betore than sixty thousand "war
riors," or males ea pa bh) of bearing arum;
and these are :,,cattered iu such a way,
that not more than a few thousand
could ever be gathered into one body.
The facts we have stated point to
the complete and inevitable extinction
of tlm r ace of red men on this conti
nent. The white race has grown from
nothing to 27,1,00,000 or F. 01.113 ; and t he
negro race from nothing to nearly
four In I! !kris and a half o:*sou:s. The
whites, by their on poi kw intelligence,
drive out the red race. The negroes
are only an appurtenance of the whites,
Laving been brought hither by them,
to act as their slaves. They have been
cultivated as a matter of traffic and
profit, and hence they have increased,
in opposition to a seeming law of na
ture which makes the equal and eon
filmed existence of two races in one
territory, for an extended period, in
compatible. The free colored popula
tion does not increase throughout the
Union except at a very moderate rate,
which rate is diminishing at each de
cade. In some portions of the Union
it is declining, and it is not improba
ble that in the course of two or three
centuries the negroes on this continent
will be no more munerous than the In
dians now are.
There aro physiological reasons why
an inferior raco should decline in the
presence of a superior one. Mongrels
are never healthful nor fertile, and the
Ofivring of whites and Indians is
known to be delicate and short-lived;
while mulattoes are equally well-known
to be less robust than full-blooded
whites or flablooded blacks. 'But
indepen,lent or the natural causes,
and without reference to the dis
eases and vices which the whites:
have introduced among the Indian.,
and which have been so fatal to
theta, there seems to be a divine pro.
vision that• races which have dis
tinctive marks of color, feature and
character shall not live together and
prosper alike. The white race does
not thrive in Africa, and the negro
race, left to itself, and without the
mercenary and selfish care of the slave
breeder aml slave-trader, d 005 not
thrive in Ameriea.—Erehiny
How Ploipl was Prevented from Send
ing the Pittsburg Guns to the South.—A
Fort Delaware correspondent furnish
es the Pittsburg Dispatch with the fol
lowing little bit of history :—A day or
two since, I obtained some particulars
in relation to Floyd's attempted ship
ment of heavy artillery from Pittsburg,
which, in the absence of individual
names, might, nevertheless, be of some
interest. These pieces, ostensibly or
dered for Ship Island. Mar New Or
leans, were really intended for Fort
Morgan, at the entrance of Mobile Bay.
The platforms were constructed at
Watervliet; but, as the engineer time
saw treason in the Secretary of War,
they were - purposely made three inch
es too short, with other defects which
rendered them useless for Fort Morgan
but quite suitable for a new work at
the opening of Now York harbor.—
Other platforms were then ordered.—
The glacis,'or outside work, prepared
for their reception at Fort Morgan was
pushed to completion..ll6yd had all
things ready for the great .guns at
Pittsburg, when events were precipi
tated by the rash treason of the South
Carolinians, and the rebels lost both
guns and platforms.

THE SECRETARY AND THE SOLDIERS.—
It is about twenty 3 e.trs since ono of
the members of the present Cabinet
was a member of Congress from a dis
tant western State. Ire had the usu
al right of designating a single candi
date ftn. admission to the West Point
.lEilitary Academy. The applications
made to hint fin- - a vacancy which
then existed, were not many, but
among them was a letter from a boy
of sixteen or seventeen years of age,
who, without any accompanying re
commendations or references, asked I
the appointment for himself. The
member dismissed the appeal from his
mind, \\ill' perhaps a passing thought
of the forwardness and impudence of
the stripling who could aspire to such
a place on no other grounds than his
own desire to get a good education at
the public expense.
But happening a shalt time after
wards to be in the little village whence
the letter was mailed, the incident was
recalled to his memory, and he thought
he would beguile the few hours of leis
are that he had, by looking up the am
bitious youth. He made his way, by
dint of much inquiry, to a small tail
or's shop on the outskirts of the town,
and when he was admitted at the door
he found a lad sitting cross-legged up•
on the tailor's bench, mending a rent
in an old pair of pantaloons. But this
lad had another occupation besides his
manual toil. Near by, on a small
block of wood, rested a book of ab
struse science, to which Ile turned his
eyes whenever they could be transfer
red from the work in his hands. The
member accosted him by the name
given in the letter, and the lad replied,
‘• lam the person." " You wish, then,
to be appointed a cadet at West
Point:"' "I do," he rejoined " Why?"
asked the l'engressman. Beeause,"
answered the tailor youth," I feel that
I was born for something better than
mending 01l clothes." i`lio member
talked further with him, and was so
pleased with his frailkiiess. his spirit,
and the rare intelligence lre evinced,
that he procured him the appoint
mew.
The number is now Secretary
Smith, of Indiana, and the youth Gen.
Burnside, Commander-in-Chief of the
Army of the Potomac. We should
not be surprised if that boy----an ex
cellont specimen of our northern mud
sills—were destined to hoist the Amer
ican flag to its old place on the Capi
tol at Richmond.

THEIR NOIITIIERN SYMPATIIIZERS.—The
.Atlanta ((la.) intelligeneer, of October
213th, has a long and very sharp re
view of General Bragg's campaign in
Kentucky, in which it shows up the
incapacity of that General. The fol
lowing is an extract showing the
hopes entertained at the South, and
the reliance placed upon such rebel
lion sympathizers' as Vallandigham,
Bright and others :
Iliad General Bragg done his duty
as well and promptly as Gen. Smith
dill, Louisville would have been ours,
Cincinnati would have furnished us
with supplies, while Columbus, Ohio,
might have been our headquarters.—
Then would the Vallandighains of
Ohio, and the Blights of lndam a , have
rallied to the issuing. of Gen. Bragg's
noted proclamation; then would many
thousand friends in Indiana, Ohio and
Illinois have joined the Southern ar
my ; then, too. could General Bragg,
having cut off the We-tern from the
Eastern States, IlaVl; Nvhisperud terms
of peace into the Northwestern ear;
and then might we have reasonably
hoped for peace. But now, all hope
of peace is indefinitely postponed, and
our prospects are gloomier than when
we began to cross the mountain, be•
eause our appearance near the Ohio
has caused ina»y a man to be added
to the Northern army that, had we
remained south of the mountain,
would never have taken up arms
against us.
