To Col. T. T. Taylor, Comnmndinj; at

my proclamation of tho 30th ultimo, has

The following paragrnph,ettrAotel from
ray proclamation, will be utrictly enforced
wititin the lines prejeribeii agtinut the
-lass of ofl'enderB for whom it was intend
. d, vix:
'All porsons who bhall L taken with
uruis in their bnii'ls within these lines
hall be tried by court minnial, mid if
found guilty will bo idiot."
The lines are expressly decUred to be
t hose of the army in Jho military occupa
lion in this State.
You have misapprehended the meaning
of tho proclamation without undertaking
to determine the condition of . ny man
ongaged in. this rebellion. I desire to be
clearly understood that tho proclamation
ii in tended to recognize the usual rights
nf an open enemy in the field, and to be
in all respects strictly conformable wiih
the usages of war.
Li is hardly r.scessary for me to say that
it fei not preparod with any purpose to
injure the ordinary rights of humanity
in'itu respect to the wounded men and
thoifiwho are humanely engagea in alle
viating their stilVerirgs. J. C. FaEMo.sT,

SV. 7Oi'M, Sept. 20. A gentleman nam

day night, arrived this morning, and re
ports that a severe light took pi ice on
Tueiday for the possession of three ferry

from below the town and after a verv

The boats wero not in fair range of Col.

says that (Jen. Price assaulted Col. Mulli

Wednesday, but was repulsed each time
with a loss of between illMI and 4W.
Reinforcements from the North, proba
bly under Gen. Sturges, were expected lo
arrive late, on Wednesday, but as (ioncral
Pi ice had possession of tho ferry boats
they would not be able to cross the river,
And of course could bo of liitle or no ser

Mr. King's account is quite incoherent,
and entire reliance is not placed on it

that a battle has taken place, but the do -

1 1 seems, however, that Pruiideiit Lin
coln, while approving ol the generul scope
of this proclamation, objected to the clause
relating to the liberation of slaves, as ex

employed against the government, and
not all the tdave property of rebels, upon
which a coi n-(ondeiU'e appears lo have
ensued between the Presiiitnt and the
