Not over 150 were lost on Mulligan’s side, nor moro than 300 on the rebels’ side. Mulligan was foroed to give up for want of water and reinforce ments. lie had no vinegar, as reported in the Re publican . HU forces were sour enough without that. The Attempts to Reinforce Mulligan. The Missouri Democrat in an article defending Gen. Fremont from the charge of neglecting to re inforce Col. Mulligan, says: So soon as it was apparently the intention of Price to atiaok Lexington, every effort that could have been made to reinforce it was made, and StUTgis’ army arrived in time to do so, and would have suc ceeded could they have crossed the river; but the very ferry boats collected there under tho guns of the fort for the purpose of crossing Sturgis’ army, four thousand strong, had fallen into the hands of tho enemy, and left them idle spectators on the op posite bank of the river. Lane, with a force of over eight thousand men, pressed on with all the vigor possible from tho sonthwest. Smith, with a force of one thousand, hurried down from St. Joseph; and Jeff Davis had orders to break through the enemy’s lines, and hurry OD from Georgetown without transportation, with a force of over seven thousand men. Besides these, twe boats, with guns and over a thousand men, went up the river in order to destroy the masked batteries which lined its banks. In fact, such is the disposition of the Federal troops at this moment. They have so hemmed in Price that he will be obliged to give battle or surrender. In any event, his fate is scaled, as it is the first time since tho war began in Missouri that the United States forces could meet the enemy in anything like ap proaching to equal numbers. it * it For the first time within Fremont’s short teTm r two months, ho is in a position to assume the offen sive, and we must not he considered enthusiastic if 'ice say that within, three or four weeks there will not he an open enemy m Missouri, AFFAIRS IN KENTUCKY. John C. Breckinridge on the Wing. The Louisvillo Journal of the 25th says: We learn from Alt. Sterling that on Friday morn ing, about 4 o’clock, a buggy, containing two gen tlemen and a negro boy, passed through that town, stopping for a few minutes at the house of an ex official, and took the State road towards the Vir ginia line. Several gentlemen met the buggy on the road. One of the travellers was closely muffled, and whenever they were about meeting any one the negro hoy raised himself so as to cover the mnf fled fig-itre. One of the Secessionists in Mt. Ster ling revealed the fact on Friday that John C. Breck inridge had gone through on his way to Virginia or Tennessee. Lincoln’s “Hessian oloak ”is forever eclipsed now. The ex-official at whose house the travellers called was not in Mt. Sterling on Friday night. A number of the State Guard stole a portion of the State arms on Friday , after dark, and started on the road the buggy had taken. Perhaps they accompanied Breckinridge and his companion as a body-guard . Outrages Committed by Gen. Buckner. The Louisville Democrat says: General Buckner is showinghis infamous character in its usual shape. He has been devastating all along his route in a manner perfectly consistent with his previous acts in destroying bridges and other private property. Messrs. Smith & Craddock, of Hart county, had one thousand bags of wheat. Immediately upon the arrival ofQcn, Buckner, he seized this wheat, and shipped it to Camp Boone, upon the ground that Craddock was a “ Union” man. The same denun ciation goes on every where. A scoundrel paints out any one as in favor of the Union, and imme diately another treasonable scoundrel turns his force upon him, and every bit of his property is seized, down tio tin cups, and his family turned adrift, while those whose duty it was to provide for them are arrested and imprisoned. Old Fort Jefferson. A correspondent of the St. Louis Democrat, writing from Old Fort Jefferson, Ky., says : Our stand-point is the most advanced guard Of our grand Western army. Old Fort Jefferson, now in ruins, stands near the banks of the Missis sippi, on the Kentucky side, six miles below Cairo, Illinois. There are three regiments of infantry, Swart’s light artillery battery, and two compa nies of cavalry encamped here at present. Co lumbus, Ky., lies some fourteen miles below us, and is occupied by the famous rohel generals, Polk and Pillow, with about 15,000 troops, poorly clothed, but well supplied with a powerful artillery and numerous cavalry. Norfolk, Missouri, lies directly across the river from us, and is garrisoned by two Illinois regiments and Buell’s battery. This part of Kentucky, called Jackson’s Pur chase, including all west of the Cumberland river, is peopled by a rude rural population, three-fourths of whom are “ Secesh.” The Fight at BarbonrsvillGf We find in the Frankfort Comsiionweallh, of the 24th instant, a letter, giving the particulars of the fight at Barboursville : London, Sept. 20,18G1. On the evening of the 18th, about fifty of the cavalry of the rebels came down to the bridge above London, at W. B. Anderson’s tan yard. The citizens anticipated their coming, and tore up the puncheons from the frame of the bridge, and they could not pass. There were some thirty of the Home Guard guarding the bridge ; the Seeeshers fired at them ; they returned the fire, wounding three. None of ovr men were hurt. The cavalry scampered off. They watched the bridge all night ; there was a fog in the morning, and about day light the cavalry returned, three hundred in number, and fired upon those who were watching the bridge ; the fight commenced ; the cavalry were supported by their whole force, consisting Of three thousand infantry; the Home Guard re pulsed them twice, and although only twenty-one of the Home Guard stood the fire, they say they could easily have kept them in cheok at the bridge, but they went back, crossed the gut back about one-fourth of a mile, made their way around, came up the town, and upon their rear, by the street Where Sawyer’s office Stands, and upon the rear of the Home Guard, intending to surround them. When our boys saw that, they escaped through Rich. Tuggle's corn field, and made their escape; one was shot through the ear, and one through the top of the shoulder—both slight flesh wounds. The number of the rebels killed was about thirty, they suppose, and about twelve mortally wounded. Colonel Rains, the commander of the rebel forces, is certainly killed; one captain, and ono lieutenant; the privates are guessed at They drove a wagon down, loaded it with their dead, and the blood was strewn all along the road, from the wagon, for miles. This is the best fight of the war. One hundred more men, who would have fought like this glorious little hand of twenty-one, would have whipped this army of three thousand three hundred. We ascertained their number by their own acknowledgments after the battle, and the fact that the lane, from the bridge to Mrs. Pogue's house, was thick with men, six deep, for one half mile. What the Rebels are doing in Kentucky. The Cincinnati Gazette , of the 25th, says : An interview with a gentleman of this city, who visited Nashville about two weeks sinco and re turned yesterday, has plaoed us in possession of some Interesting particulars relative to the progress of the rebellion in Southern Kentucky. Our informant left Nashville Friday on a train of cars which only ran as far as the State line. Here he was compelled to remain over night, and although he would have cheerfully paid any rea sonable price for supper and lodgings, he was glad at last to find an empty freight ear, where he en deavored to snatch a few hours repose. The next day another train, loaded with soldiers, oame up from Nashville, and jumping aboard, he was carried to Bowling Green, where he says there is a rebel camp of ten thousand men. On Sunday he availed himself of the opportunity presented by the passage of another train conveying troops, and came in to within three miles of MuufordsviUe, where there is another camp of twelve or fourteen hundred men. From this point to Munfordsville he came on foot, and thence to Now Haven, on the Lebanon branch of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, in an old lumber wagon which he and five others were fortunate enough to obtain, and for the use of which they paid thirty-six dollars, walking half the distance, lest the rotten old vehi cle should break down and leave them in the woods. From New Havon to Louisville he came by cars, and was informed that that was the last train that would be run on the branch road. The railroad from Munfordsville to tho State line is closely guarded, and travellers without passes are not allowed to proceed at all, while those with passes are strictly searched at every station. He confirms the report that those leaving Tennessee and other rebellious States are not permitted to take with them any considerable amount of money. There are still at Nashville, and all points between that abd the rebel outposts, many persons awaiting an opportunity to come North. At Mnnfordsville, about one hundred and fifty were anxious to share with him his seat in the rickety old vehicle that carried him to New Haven. Our informant says the troops in camp at Bowl ing Green and Munfordsville are exclusively from Kentucky, and thinks his opportunities for ascer taining the truth warrant him in defying the tele graphic story that there arc two regiments of Vir ginians in the State. All the rebel soldiers he saw were dressed in gray uniforms, and closely re sembled many of our own. He says the general impression among them is, that twenty thousand Federal troops have possession of Muldrangh’sHill; but, notwithstanding, they have tho utmost confi dence in the ultimate success of the South, and be lieve that Louisville will be in their hands before many weeks elapse. Business in Nashville is exceedingly dull, of couiso, although there has been n great rush thcro for goodg from the South. The shelves of the mer chants, however, are now nearly empty, and but little is doing. Coffee is sixty-five cents per pound, and everything else, unless of domestic manufac ture, in proportion. Tho blockade is slowly but surely doing its work. THE ARMY IN WESTERN VIRGINIA. Operations in Cheat Mountain—Official Report of Gen. Reynolds. Headquarters FmsT Brigade, I. V. M., 1 Elk Water, Sept. IT, 1861. J To Geo. L. Hahtstjff, Assistant Adjutant General Department Ohio—Sir; The opera tions of this brigade for the lost few days may be summed up as follows: On the I2th Inst, the ene my, vine thousand strong, with eight to twelve pieces of artillery, under command of Gen. R. E. Lee, advanced on this position by the Hunters ville pike. Our advanced pickets—portions of the Fifteenth Indiana and Sixth Ohio—gradually fell back to our main picket station; two companies of the Seventeenth Indiana, under Col. Hascall, checking tho enemy’s advance at the Point Moun tain Turnpike, and then felling back on the regi ment which occupied n very advanced p<»ition on our right front, and which were new w. 6 f 6< * enemy threw into the woods on our left front three regiments who made their way to the right and rear of Cheat Mountain, took a position on the road leading to Huttonville, broke the telegraph wire, axd cut off our communication with Coloae TWO CENTS. Kimball's .fourteenth Indiana Cavalry on Cheat Sammit. Simultaneously another forco o? the onemy, of nbout equal strength, advanced by the Staunton pike, on the front of Cheat Mountain, and threw two regiments to the right and rear of Cheat Mountain, which united with the three regi ments from the other column of the enemy. This two posts. Choat Sammit and Elk Water, are seven miles apart by a bridle path over the mountains, and eighteen miles by the wagon roads, via Hut tonville. "Cheat Mountain Pass," the formor headquarters of the brigade, being at the foot of the mountain, ten miles from the summit. The enemy advancing toward the pass, by wbieh he might possibly have obtained the rear or left of Elk Water, was mot there by three companies of the Thirteenth Indiana, ordered - up- for that purpose, and by one company of the' Fowvteenth Indiana from the sammit. These four companies engaged and gallantly hold in check greatly superior num bers of the enemy, foiled himin his attempt to ob tain the rear or left of Elk Water, and threw him into the rear and right of Cheat Mountain, the com panies retiring to the pass at the foot of the moun tains. The enemy, about 5,000 strong, were closed in on Cheat Mountain, and became engaged with de tachments of the Fourteenth Indiana, Twenty fourth and Twenty-fifth Ohio, from the .Summit, in all only about 300, who, deployed in the wood, held in check and killed many of the enemy, who did not at any lime succeed in getting sufficiently near the field redoubt to give Dunn's Battery an oppor tunity of firing into him. So matters; rested at dark on the 12th, with heavy forces in front and in plain sight of both posts, communication cut off, and the supply train for the mountain, loaded with provisions which were needed, waiting for an op portunity to pass up the road. Determined to force a communication with CheaLl ordered the Thir teenth Indiana, under Col. Sullivan, to cut their way, if necessary, by the mail Toad, and the greater part of the Third Ohio and Second Virginia, under Colonels Manon and Moss respectively, to do the same by the path; the two commands starting at 3 o’clock A. M., on the 13th; the former from Cheat Mountain Pass, and the latter from Elk Water, so as to fall upon the enemy, if possible, simultaneously. Early on the 13th, the small forco of about three hundred from the summit engaged the enemy, and with such effect that, notwithstand iDg’his greatly superior numbers, he retired in great haste and disorder, leaving large quantities of clothing and equipments on the ground, and our relieving force failing to catch the enemy, marched to the summit, securing the provision train, and re opening our communication. While this was taking plaoe on the mountain, and, as yet, unknown to us, tho enemy, under Leo, advanced en Elk Water, apparently for a general attack; one rifled ten pound Purrott gun, from Loomis’ Battery, was run to the front three-fourths of a mile, and delivered a few shots at the enemy, doing fine execution, causing him to withdraw out of convenient range. Our relative positrons remained unchanged until near dark, when we learned the rcsnltof the move ment on the mountain, as above stated, and the enemy retired somewhat for the night. On the l-frh, early, the enemy was again in posi tion in front of Elk Water, and n. few rounds, sup ported by a company of tho Fifteenth Indiana, were again administered, which caused him to withdraw as before. The forceß that had beon before repulsed from Cheat returned, and were again driven back by a comparatively small force from the mountain. The Seventeenth Indiana was Ordered up the path to open communication and make way for another supply train, but, as before, found the little band from the summit had already done the work. Daring the afternoon ef -tho 14 th the enemy withdrew from before Elk Water, and is now principally ooncentrated some ten miles from this post, at or near his main camp. On the loth he appeared in stronger force than at any previous time in front of Cheat, and attempted a flank movement by the left, but was driven back by the evor-vigila»t and gallant garrison of the field redoubt on the summit. To-day the enemy has also retired from the front of Cheat, but to what precise position lam not yot informed. The results of these affairs are, that we have killed near one hundred of the enemy, including Colonel John A. Washington , aid-de-eamp to General Lee, and have taken about twenty pri soners. We have lost nine killed, including Lieut. Junod, Fourteenth Indiana, two missing, and about sixty prisoners, including Captain James Bense and Lieutenants Gillman. and Shaffer, of the Sixth Ohio, and Lieutenant Merrill, of tho Engineers. J. J. Reynolds, Brig. General com’g First Brigade. Geo. S- Rose, Ass’t Adj’t General. MISCELLANEOUS WAR NEWS. Operations; on. the Southern Coast. A correspondent of the New York Tribune , writing from Fortress Monroe, under date of Sept. 24tb,says; It is understood that Flag-Officer Goldsborough expects at an early day to concentrate the largest fleet ever seen in American waters, with the view of active operations on the coast. The Saline arrived this morning, making, with the Minnesota. , the Roanoke, the St. Lawrence, the Congress, five first-class frigates, beside several gunboats, how in the roads. The Cumberland is still at Newport News. We hear nothing more of tho Yorktown, and only wish that the ghostly Merrimack and the rest of the rebel craft would make thair appearance. Six schooners and two gunboats left for Hatteras yesterday, but the stress of weather caused ono of each to return. I presume the schooners are for closing the channel of Oregon and Ooracoke Inlets. The gunboat Flag has also left for Hatteras. Sho draws,too much water to go over the "Swash - ’ into the sound. The Expedition to Charleston The New York Tribune says: Gen. Sherman’s expedition to the Southern coast will sail within three weeks at tho furthest. Fifteen or twenty re giments will have the privilege of going to Charles ton. as tho principal officers in command believe. or to Mobile or New Orleans, as others conjecture’ Gen. Yield's brigade—five regiments, now in camp here—will form a part of the force, and will go to Fortress Monroe, to sail thence, within a few days. One of Gen. Vielc’s regiments, the Third New Hampshire, Col. Fellows, was encamped a week on Long Island, after the Herald sent it South through Plum Gut, and was then ordered here. Gen. Sherman will not strike the only blow on the scacoast. More Reports-from the Enemy. A New Yorker, a deserting lieutenant from the rebel army, escaped from Freestone Point, was taken to Washington on Wednesday. He says the rebels have 10,000 men at Freestone Point, 30,000 between there and Manassas, and large numbers along the river to Matthias, and can entirely de stroy navigation, while the force on the Potomac is about ISO,OOO, well provided with cannon and plenty of food. He further says the rebels intend to cross the Potomac above and below Washington, and si multaneously attack in front and rear. He alleges that the battery at Freestone Point is commanded by Henry J. Hartstein, formerly a commander in tho United States navy, and that there are batteries on the Virginia side of tho Po tomac every two and a half miles from Oceoquan to Mathias Point. The river is now considered by naval officers as effectually closed. Our Potomac flotilla is insuffi cient to clear it of the numerous batteries upon its banks. “ Deserters” from the Rebels. A correspondent, ‘IC.,” writes to us that he protests against the term “ deserter from the rebels.” He contends that “a man is not a de serter whose conscience, honesty, good sense, or revived love of his.country ; whose respect for the laws of God and of men ; whose respect for his own character and for himself, compel him to abandon a gang of traitors, thieves, incendiaries, perjurers, braggarts, murderers, who assassinate in the dark solitary sentinels. The man who leaves such pol luted associates, with whom he had been seduced by deception, or forced by compulsion or threats, to unite, and who comes from the bad cause and evil men to the good.cause, and to the society of good men, is not a deserter ; he does a righteous, meritorious act, for which he deserves commenda tion and applause. Those whom he has quitted are deserters ; those who have been educated at the expense of tho country, and sworn to support, defend, and maintain, the country and the Constitution against all enemies; those ingrates, who have been promoted to military or naval offices; who have been for years fod and ptdd by the country, are sliaiqef'ul deserters, and those are also perjured deserters who have been incautiously elevated to civil positions of trust and confidence, swearing allegiance to the country, the Government, the Constitution, and the laws, which they have violated and betrayed, and who have abused the opportunities afforded by their positions to speculate upon the lands belonging to tho nation, and, above all infamies, to pillage the treasury, to rob the mints and custom houses, to seize the forts, and, as the climax of atrocity, to foment rebellion and treason, preparing means for perpetrating both by removing the national arms and munitions from tho loyal sections, which they intended to injure, placing tho implements of war in the localities where they designed to inaugurate rebellion. Such men are dishonored deserters and. traitors, lost to all sense of honor, honesty, and. de cency. “Those who abandon the polluted ranks, and return to good faith and patriotism, deserve praise, not an opprobrious epithet. They will be lauded by mankind, and will be hereafter rewarded by the great and just God." Publications Received, From Peterson A Brothers Edwin bf Deira: a Poem, by Alexander Smith.
