Further Particulars of the Battle at Nun
fordsville,
A correspondent of the Louisville Democrat,
writing from Munfordsville, under date of Decem
ber 18, says:
You Moo, ere ihig, been informed of the battle at
Green river yesterday afternoon. 'between the rebels
and a portion of Colonel Willich's command, under
_Lieutenant Colonel Von Trombeia. The rebels,
according to the admitted statement of a flag of
- true, which came in to-day to bury their tivost, rep
that they had fifteen hundred cavalry, a full regi
ment ofinfantry, and a battery of four pieces of
artillery.
Our forces, under Lieutenant Colonel Von Trout=
beta, numbered about five hundred; yet, notwith
standing this great preponderance in favor of the
rebels, they were completely whipped, and retired
from the field_
During the engagement, a charge was made by
the rebels upon a portion of three companies in
- Colonel itiillich's command, which was severe. In
this Anne the fighting was Mare, and during its
continuance we lost two orderly sergeants and one
lieutenant.. Here the loss was greatest; it was a
heavy charge, made with the usual allotment of
;Southern chivalry, of 814 or eight to one, and yet
the chivalry were beaten off. Lot three times three
and a tiger be given for the bold and gallant little
band that so nobly defended and ultimately main
tained their position on the well-contested field. A
riu s lu g hurrah should g o one diatc to an
ether, that here, on the south bank of Green river,
a little band of the gallant Thirty-second Indiana
volunteers, under their noble leader Von Trombeia,
numbering only five hundred, and they hastily gain
moned together, notdreaming of a charge,ltnede good
their position. and won the field against an attack
ing force of at least two thousmad, supported by a
battery of artillery. The rebel colOners (Terry)
death is confirmed. - Rebel loss said to bo seventy
killed and 'wounded. Our loss, killed, wounded,
and missing, is thirty-two

The Supply of Arms from Europe

In one moat modal element of war we shall

only rifled Northern Arsenals, but procured large
supplies of arias from Europe, left us to open the

troops to murderous fire before their inferior arms

agent, bag completed his mission. He bag obtained
from the Government arsenals in Austria and
Saxony over one hundred thousand rifles, equal to
any in the world. These arms aro now on their
way to America.
Mr. Schuyler, though for a long time embarrassed
and thwarted, and all the while encountering rival

fidelity, by complete success.
The knowledge that our Government needed
arms has sharpened the cupidity and wits of all who
deal in them The armorers of Europe are at work
now, night and day, in patching up old muskets and
in counterfeiting new ones, in the hope of palming
them upon our Government. Europe aboundm with

arms, in band, are only obtained from Government

BRILLIANT APPEARANCE OF TRE GUESTS—THE
FOREIGN MINISTERS PRESENT AND ABSENT—
litin-YENATION OF TUN 11 MTN ROPati,
We copy the following graphic description of the
White House as it is, and a Presidential recep
tion there, from a letter published in the New
Yesl: Arkiwid of the lAth instant ±
The President. gave his first. levee of the season
to-night. The White House was thronged with a
brilliant company of citizens, and civil and milita
ry officers of the Governmerd i Jig Prabient,
tll
though not wearing that ruddy glow that he had
whex he first came to Washington from the West,
looks quite healthy, and was as pleasant and social
as though he had but a single fight on his hands,
without another in t.romeet, rs man y .oppose_
Deputy Marshal Phillips did the introductory to
the President.
Mrs. Lincoln never seemed in finer spirits. She
WAS ...aired e 11, 5 ht-ll si erod silk heeeade elegant
ly flowered. Upon her head was a beautiful wreath
of flowers, and her fingers sparkled with diamonds
and pearls.
Next to the President in attraction was &Mel
McClellan. The moment he entered the house all
eyes were fixed upon him. Ladies and gentlemen,
civilians and military officers, for the moment for
got the courtesies of the occasion, and crowded
around him thee 6 h he was a. " Jaw:, "
not come to pay his respects to the Commander-in-
Chief.
Secretaries Cameron, Smith, and Welles, and la
dies were present. also Assistant Secretaries Scott,
of the War Department, and Seward, of the State
Department, with their ladies.
The great fact which marked the levee with some
degree of importance, and which may hereafter be
quoted as significant, is that the ministers of Rag
land, France, Spain, and Prussia did not appear at
the levee, but the ministers of Russia, Sweden,
Bremen. and Nicaragua were present, and the Rus
a,,-. teiniAtet was tapeeielly emend in his earit.e.P
cation with the rretAtlent. The miscellaneous com
pany was quite brilliant and numerous.
The President's house once more assumes the
appearance of comfort and comparative beauty.
Two coats of pure white paint on the outside renew
its right to be designated the "White House."
The interior, during the last six months, has been
thoroughly cleansed, and almost entirely reorna
mented. Very little new furniture has been intro
duced, as much of the old is yet substantial, having
been procured in the time of Monroe, and is not
only valuable on that account, but is really Very
hem its antique style_ Mush of this old
furniture, however, has been revarnished, and the
chairs have been cushioned and covered with rich
crimson satin brocatel, tufted and laid in folds on
the backs, rendering a modern appearance,
Upon entering the great East Room, two promi•
vent things strike the eye—the paper on the walls
and the carpet on the floor. The first is a Darieian
style of heavy velvet cloth paper, of crimson, gar
net, and gold. It gives a massive appearance to
the room, and is quite rich. In the daytime it
seems rather dark ; but when the soft light of the
great chandeliers illuminates the room it develops
its full richness, and harmonizes to a shade. The
carpet is an ingenious piece of work , not because of
its rich quality or exquisite design, but because of
the fact that it is in one piece, and corers a floor
measuring one hundred feet ong and forty-eight
feet wide. There is nothing flashy or extravagant
about its appearance. The admiration of the be
holder is not suddenly excited by a view of the
whole surface, so ingeniously and beautifully are
the various ngurca and colors harmonised. it is
like a constellation of stars, where the beauty of
one star is lost in the combined grandeur of the
whole. It is a very heavy Axminster, with three
medallions gracefully arranged into one grand me
dallion.
As we walk over its velvet surface from centre to
sides, or from corner to corner, the most chaste and
beautiful surprises of vases, wreaths, and bouquets
of flowers and fruit pieces excite our love of true
art. The carpet, in its mechanical construction,
as well as in its artistic design, is a wonder. It was
made in Glasgow, Scotland, upon the only loom in
the world capable of weaving one so large. Mr.
W. H. Carryl went to Europe, and, after examin
ing various patterns in different cities, including
Paris and London, proceeded to Glasgow, and de
signed this. His mission was a success. The firm
of which this gentleman is a member (William 11.
Carryl & Brother, No. 719 Chestnut street, Phila
delphia,) bad the entire order for furnishing the
Executive mansion, and they have completed the
to a iLlaal4VV iv elicit tho hearttect ccu4 -
mendations from the President and his lady.
The most attractive features among the orna
mental, in the East Room, are the curtains and
drapery at the eight windows, The inner curtains
are of the richest white needle-wrought lace, made
in Switzerland. Over these, and suspended from
massive gold-gilt cornices, are French crimson bro
catels, trimmed with heavy gold fringe and tassel-
work The embraiw, or eurtain.pin, at the side of
each window, is of solid brass, and covered in gold
gilt. The design is a commingling of banners, ar
rows, swords, an anchor, chain, &e., interwoven
behind the American shield, upon the front of
which is a raised figure of an eagle. Opposite the
great east window of the room is the door leading
to the promenade.. In order to harmonize the in
terior appearance of the great East Room, this door
has curtained with laee and crimson brocatel
trimmed with gold fringe and tassel, to match the
window opposite. Tho eight mirrors in the East
Room are the same that have been there for years.
Passing from the East Room we enter the green, or
conversational room. It has been newly papered,
carpeted, and curtained, and greatly improved.
Next is the blue, or President's reception room.
This is the only room, when Mr. Buchanan left the
house, that was very well furnished. A new car
pet has been placed upon the floor; otherwise the
room is in the same condition it was when Mr. Lin
coln leek pee...lee.
Next we come to the Red room. This is properly
Mrs. Lincoln's reception roam. Everything in it
is new except the splendid old painting of Wash
ington. The fine pictures of Queen Victoria and
Prince Albert, and other members of the royal
family, presented to the President of the United
States for the Presidential mansion - by the Prince of
Melee, and hung upon the wall of this room, are
roleeing. I learn that ;hey were rcteeTeti lv Wiwi*
land with Mr. Buchanan. Nevertheless, under the
general direction of Mrs. Lincoln (to whose excel
lent good taste we are chiefly indebted for the beau
tifying of the President's house,) this room does not
need those pictures. It is a model of elegance and
modesty combined. The most perfect harmony
prevails throughout. The sofas, chairs, .te., are
covered with rich crimson brocade satin.
" DowN IN DIN/E."
_
The guests' room, now known no the Prince .of
Wales' room, since that youth occupied it, has
been thoroughly ornamented and refurnished.
The carpet is a beautiful Wilton. The paper is a
light tinted purple, teith a golden figure of n masa
rose tree in full bloom. The principal feature of
the room is the bed. It is eight feet wide and nine
feet long, of solid rosewood. The sides are cushion
ed and covered with purple-figured satin. The
Lead-board is a piece of rich, carved wood, rising
eight feet above the bed, and having an oval top.
Twenty feet above the floor, overspreading the
whole, is a magnificent canopy, from the upper
carved work of which the drapery hangs in elegant
folds, being in the form of a crown, the front orna
ment of which is the American shield, with the
stars and stripes carved thereon. The drapery is
a rich purple satin fringe, and otherwise orna
....tod,gill, the d o o c t gold love, The carved
work is adorned with gold gilt. The curtains to
the room are made of the finest purple satin da•
mask, and trimmed to correspond with the canopy.
The centre.table is of solid carved rosewood, is
quite costly, and exceedingly beautiful.
The private apartments of Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln
are more modestly but very beautifully ornamented
and furnished. The President's library is chastely
and not extravagantly refurnished. reen is the
color that predominates in this room The room in
which the President is usually to be found, and in
v bleb the Cabinet meetings are held, has been
newly papered, earpatea, p . 1.6, 17 And it pre
sents a very rich appearance. The rooms of Se
cretaries Nicolay and Hay are "neat, but n - t
gaudy." They are also newly painted, carpeted,
end curtained, So much for the White Rouse
tnd its new decorations. I understand that the
Messrs. Carryl, who have achieved such a success
in the refurnishing and redecorating of the White SEALED PROPOSALS, UNTIL THE
House, have also just furnished full sets of curtains 80th December, 1361, are invited for furnishing the
