PATRIOTIC LETTER.
Camp TsNiixv, D. C, Fcpt,12 1861.
Wm. A. Wallace, Z.
My DcurSir: Your favor of the
5th inst., reached mo three days since,
nod ihould hae had an earlier response,
but we have had such stirring times in
camp ever since, with flag presentations,
reviews, and expeditions to repel threat
ened attacks upon our line, that 1 hnve
not had a moment until now that I could
devote to the consideration of the sub
ject.
I "ie announcement of a probable vacan
cy on the Democrat io Legislative ticket in
oifr District, "onmtTTo file very rnoxpected
ly indeed. We Are so nearly cut oil from
the common avenues of information, that
event transpiring even cIofc nrouud ncU
dom reach our ems until they have been
almost forgotten ir. civil ciicles. From
the time I learned the result of the St.
Mary's Conference, (or rvliich, by the way,
I was fully prepared, altlnuuh some of mv
friendri were sanguine of a ditl'ercnt one,
I gave tho matter no farther thought, ex
cept as regarded the success of tho ticket
at the coming election. I'.efore answering
your interrogatory, whether in the event
of a vacancy on tho Democratic ticket for
tho Legislature becoming certain, I would
accept the nomination and serve if elected,
let nie expres my appreciation of the
high compliment paid tne by the tenor of
your request, as well as my senso of my
unworlhiness. Helieve me., I fh.dl over
legard the confidence evinced in mo by
yourself ami numerous othei fnonds in
Clem field county, as the highest honor 1
could receive.
From the time I first learned that thro'
the partiality of my friends I had been se
lected by the Democracy of my adopted
county nc their candidate for tho Legislu
lure, until I was upprued of the nc'.km of
the Conferees. I had constantly been at a
loss what course to pursue should I hap
pen to be one of the successful candidates
in the Conference, and at the polls the
former 1 could not 1 ut regard as a very
remote contingency. I could not hivo
made up my mind to leave thii service,
even temporarily, as long n the war con
tinued, unless it miitlil have been during
the retirement of tho armies of the (Jov-I
ernment to winter rpiar'ni's, or a cessation 1
of hostile operations. I'ntler such cir-1
cumslaiices I would have had no licaita-'
lion about endeavoring to render my
State what service my huinhlo abilities
mi ''lit have enabled me to in her councils. I
When, however, I learned that the leni-
ocralic Conference had, by their action, ta
ken from my shoulder! the responsibility j
of deciding my true line of duty, 1 felt
both relieved and gratified; the possibilix
ty of a subsequent vacancy not then oc-
curting to nie. I'ut now, since 1 am free, '
without other responsibilities to divido
mv ittention or mv energies, toeerve my
country on her batilo fields in her slrug-
!ps to delenJ her Hug and maintain her
free and equitable institutions, i '
must most respectfully, but with feel
ing ot tne liveliest gratitude to your.
elf and those friends who would cooler

The TiMiiEa IUsiness. Souio unusually
wise Democrats in this region have discov
ered nn entirely new objection to 'honest
old Abu.' II he is elected. Say they, ull
confidence will be destroyed in the stabil
ity of the Union, the banks will all burst,
nnd llie juice 0 timber wilt go down! This is,
tosavtlio least of it, childish. No man
in his sound senses will give it a serioiu
thought it is too foolish and absurd. If
Lincoln s election lias any eneel ul all on
the price of timber, it will be to raise it, as
there will be a very great demand !br lum,!

Jefferson Cur, Sept. 13. A correspon
lent o the St. Louis Democrat furnishes
the following intelligence-
A messenger from Col'. Mulligan, at
Lexington, reports (bat General Price's
advanced guard reached Warnersburg on
' uesday, nnd Gen. Jackson h..
s)eech.
Gen. Trioo claims to have 10,000 men
and his mam body is approaching Lexinel
ton. b
This messenger brings an official ac
count of a skirmish between tho rebels
and Gen. Love's forces, dated Fori llla,l
soe, near Fort Scott, Sept. 1 1, the sub
stance oi winch is as iollows :
He says that immediately after leaving
Springfield he dispatched General Raiu
to cleur the counties borderintr on K nrwna
of the marauding bands which have been
devastating that section of the countrv
na iiiuiBcii uuvancou to ueneral
Raines' assistance, and their combiued
force encountered at Big Dry Wood creek
the forces under Generals Lane, Mont
gopiery and Jennison, and after n brisk
skirmish of un hour nnd a quarter, the
federal troops retioated.and were pursued
by his forces about three miles.
He states his loss at 3 killed and twen
ty seven wounded, and says that they
buried three of Gen. Lane's men. H
concludes by sayinc that tho "enemu
have continued to retreat nortward from
'Fort Scott, which post thev have nbn-
dgned," and adds: "This relieves ma of
the necessity of pursuing them into Kan
sas, the soil of which J m unwillinc to
invade unless her citizens shall nrovolco
to do so by committing renewed ouU
-
This correspondent adds : "Whllo thi3
shows that there has been some skirmish
ing on tho borders, it does not prove that
the rebels have gained any advantago
but on the contrary it would appear that
they have found a force too strong for
them, and given up their plan of advan
cing into Kansas, nnd turned upon tho
weaker force at Lexington. Their de
sign now is evidently first to take Lexlng
and then bting Gov. Jackson here-"
Hudson, Mo., Sept. 12. Tho correspon

es tho following items:
A gentleman from Glasgow informs me
that Martin Green, at the head of 3,500
mounted rebels, crossed the Missouri riv
er at that place on Wednesday, and mo
ved southward. He took posession of the
steamer Sun3hiae, which was lying at
Glasgow, and used it for transporting his
men and horses over the liver.
On board of the Sunshine were som
four thousand sland of arms, four or five
secession prisoners, and a federal guard of
fourteen men. Green rele?sod the pris
oners nnd took the guard prisoners. 1'ho
Sunshine was laden with bacon, sugar,
and various other articles, all of which
fell into Green's hnnds, nnd went into his
commissary department.
