. St. ;LouiB, October 3,1864,
Tic Invasion of Missouri is more formidable than,
the people of the East appreciate. There is now no
doubt that .it is the intention of the, rebel leaders to.
make a powerful diversion in favor of Leo and
, Hood, by attracting -as-many of the now troops to
this quarter as possible. That they have, boonso
■ successful thus far is cause for unfeigned regret, as
■ it occurs at theinopportune moment when the
cause of the Union is everywhere advancing, and
after victory has lighted up the horizon of the na
tional prospects.
The starting point of the misfortunes of the Trans-
Mississippi region is undoubtedly to befound in the.
grave and scandalous ddfoat of the army of General
'■ Banks, on Red river, last spring. Since that time
the rebels west of the great river iiave been all con
fidence.’ They have successively crossed The Red,
. the Arkansas, the White, and are now crossing the
Missouri river; so that instead of making the Red

were before, that event; or instead or making the
t Texas, border our line, had that campaign •proved,"
' as it should, successful, we are now where the out
; break of the war found us—troubled to expel the
enemy from the northern part of Missouri. The
i rebel army has made its way up during the summer,
attacking Steele and Smith on the way up, and ap
l pears to have entered Mlssouri by a new route, the
' old racing ground of Brigadie# General Jeff
Thompson, leading from Clarendon, In Ar
kansas, to Bateevtlle and Pilot Knob, in Missouri.
In regard to their strength there are so many
. reports ‘that; you will no doubt be confused.
: From, very reliable; sources. 1 learn that General
Price commands in person the rebel army o f
invasion.. He vhas three subordinate. division com.
manders—Shelby, Marmaduke, and Fagln, These
comprise the forces which attacked Pilot Knob, and,
number In all .about 15,000 orlb.ooo -men.. It is re
ported, and Isi quite probable,thata force of some
five or six thousand mounted men are making their
- way up the western border of this State.as a co-ope- ■
rative force. . ‘ ‘
Their first appearance In Missouri was about ten
days since, when they were reported at Charleston, 1
ato., the dry summer haying favored their passage
up through the vast swamps which lie to the south
eastward of the State.- They menaced successively
both' CaiTO, Cape Girardeau, and-our, fortified posi
tions at Iron Mountain. In order to understand
their movements, it will be necessary to recollect
that the region of the Iron Mountain Is a rough
and mountainous mineral country, lying about
ninety miles south ofi St, Louis, A railroad of that
length connects it with, this city. At the extremity
of the railroad is Pilot Knob, where are some very
large iron works, for melting the ore, which con
tains 76 per cent, of metal.
'About a mile beyond the village the road passes
i between two gigantic peaks called respectively Pi
lot Knob and Shepherd' Mountain. On a knoll or
Bweil of ground between these hills a bastioned
earthwork was constructed two years ago, mounting
four thirty-two pounders. This work commanded
the'gorge and the onlyihighway leading into the
village. Beyond it is one of the most beautiful val
i leys in the world, called Arcadia, which wasjonce a
pleasant summer resort. At the .terminus of the
raliioad were two other small earthworks. The’ re
bels, however, passed up on the flanks of the rail
road for twonty miles with cavalry,,burned the
big iron bridge, (for the second time,)' and thus de
stroying all communication with'St.. Louis, moved
down upon the rear of Pilot Knob, at the same time
.that the main bodymoved through Arcadia valley
to the front. .On Tuesday last they made an 1 ap
proach to .the forts, andduringthe day made a fu- ;
rious and continued assault.. While they were thus
engaged, thecavalry which burned the bridge cap-.
tured, burned and sacked Potosi, a town ten miles
north of Pilot Knob. The national garrison, which ■
was not large, was commanded by Brigadier Gene
ral Ewing,.; commander of the district, and by Col.
Thomas Fletcher, the Union candidate for Gover
nor. .Brig, General A. J. ,Smith held a relieving
force at Do Soto, ten miles further North, t
. Orders had been sent, by: General Roseorans to
General Ewing to evacuate the post at the Knob,
and fall back with General Smith to cover the de
fences of St. Louis, (believed at the time to be the
goal- of the.rebel army.). 'The orders being Inter
cepted by the rebels, he therefore concentrated his -
force' 3n tlle.fort. '.ThewK'oknumber than
eight hundred men, exclusive.of two companies of
cayalry employed In,reconnoissance. The rebels
swarmed on all sides, and .began to climb the hills
which overlooked his fort.' Batteries were taken up;
the hillside* with which our gunners, under Major
Murphy, a heroic veteran,engaged them during th 6
day. In the afternoon the division of . Marmaduke
attempted' to take tho fort by a rush. . Ewing was
prepared for the emergency. His drawbridge had
been kept down to admit of communication with his
skirmishers. On raising it the rope broke, but a few
barrels filled with earth were hastily placed in the
gap and held by a company of militia. Tho charge
was furious and brief j the rebels were met with with
ering showersof bullets and canister. They reeled
and staggered, and fell hack, leaving in front of tho
fort sixty-seven dead. Their, loss in the affair Can
; not be .less .than five hundred. The ,rest of the day,
was spent in artillery fighting. It became evident
to the loader that from their commanding positions
on the mountains they could shell him,put. '
Ills supply o! provisions was getting short. At
midnight he abandon ed the fort, leaving his wounded
(less than fifty) with a surgeon, and out through the
enemy and made his way to the westward. The
conduct of General Ewing, says an .‘eye-witness,
duringthe day was above praise. Fearless of per
sonal danger, he went about from one. part of tho
fort to another, cheerful and calm, and encouraging 1
the men by the most eloquent and patriotic appeals*
Tfie spectacle thus presented by this brave, self
reliant, heroic man, was one to which no tongue or
pen can ever do justice. It thrilled every heart,
except those of the few-cowards who were destitute
of hearts. Several times.duriDg the charge General
Ewing sallied out of-the fort in ordorto give dirac*
• tions to and .encourage'the men.in*therlile-pits,'
exposing himself to - the raking fire oLtke charging
rebels.: ■ '
Major. Murphy, .of the 47th iVliasouri-'Kogltont,
acted with rare bravery, and it is a miracle that die'
escaped withhis life. He got upon the parapet, and
waited around upon it,, shouting„ defiance "to . the
enemy, and addressing our soldiers, and all the while
in plain view of the rebels, who were trying to bring
him down.
Colonel Tom Fletcher commanded in the rifle
pits, and fought like ailon. His counsel-was most
valuable to General Ewing during., the - engage
ment. The staff of the General were conspicuous
for bravery. '
Lieutenant Smith Thompson, of the iith£-lowa—
a regiment that covered itself all over with glory—
was severely wounded"while bravely skirmishing on
the side of Shepherd Mountain.- Ho is a prisoner at
Pilot Knob. • /
Although Ewing with his command escaped du
rlng the darkness, they were soon pursued by the ro-'
bcls, who, being better prepared for travel, followed
closely. Ewing (nade his way towards Kolia, and
when last heard from he wag at Harrison’s Station,
on the southwest branch of the Pacific Railroad,
where he had fortunately met a train destined for
Holla containing provisions and ammunition.
While there his little hand was attacked by a - supe
rior force of. rebels; and obliged to scatter.- Nothing
is known at this date of their whereabouts, but it Is
supposed that he is making for Holla,where General
McNeil is well fortified.'
■ The main body of the enemy, after sacking the
stores and dwellings (with -few exceptions), in the
cluster of towns about Iron Mountain, marched to
wards Jefferson City, the capital. They were first
heard of at*Franklin,’ on Friday, about forty miles
west of this city-; they destroyed one or. two railroad
bridges.tore upthe tracks, burnedwater-tanks and
stations, and moved on to the Missouri river, at
ilermanna town, composed principally of Germans,
which they are reported to- have burned. - Their
course is westward, and they may be heard of to
day at the important bridges across the Gsaeonade
and Osage, the latter nine- miles from Jefferson
City. One lot is reported as having crossed the river,
and marched for the North Missouri road from
'Herman. At any rate, either they or some of
their confederates-stopped the train going up on
Saturday , at Wontzville, and all traffic north of tha
Missouri is stopped. G-overnmenthas seized-the
railroads for military use, though they are only run
ning on an average thirty miles from the- city. Of
-course we'are -much in the dark about the condition,
of affairs at Holla; Jefferson- City and: St. Joseph
being cut off Tlio rebels are in Pilot Knob ; a sur
geon -with flag of truce from* there came into our
linhs yesterday to get medicines, &e.
It is not improper to-state that General Hose-"
crans looks upon- this incursion as If he had the
power to control it. He is perfectly satisfied that
the|enewy shall be allowed to attack -any of Ms
strong positions if they will only concentrate to do
so. The tactics of the enemy in scattering are diffi
cult to prevent. It Is certain that the rebels will
have all their own way in the interior, If not ex
pelled before long. General Rosccrans willproba
•bly take the field in person in a few days. General
A. J. Smith, who has a brigade of veterans, is at;
the heels of Price, and Mower is moving up frojn
Arkansas with another. Major General Blair, who 0
is at home on sick leave,'tendered his services for
the‘defence of the city when it-was menaced, but
has been relieved by Genetal -Rosecrans, - now that
. the occasion has passed. The city-la.full of refu
gees from the Interior, and'the Streets are crowded
with the militia, who are all held under orders to
move at once. The task of- defending the State ,
is not a light one, but until'some moans are formed,
for purging it of traitors there wlll.be no permanent
-quiet. - ... ■ i ■■

rOIETICAI NOTES,
August Belmont," chairman of the Chicago
Convention, agent of the Rothschilds, and business
manager -for the Democratic party in New York,
writes as follows from-Newport, Oct. 3, to the New
port Daily News:
“Sib: Your paper of Saturday last reproduces
an extract of a letter from a. Mr. Henry C. Wright,
In which l am charged “ with having bought up the
Chicago Convention, paid , large sums in order to
obtain the nomination of General McClellan,hold
ing, in connection with the Messrs Rothschild, a
large amount of Confederate securities, sympa
thizing with; the rebellion, and depreciating Union
victories,” together- with other; absurdities of a si
milar nature. All these statements of Mr. Wright,
as well aB the comments which you bascuponthem,
are false in every particular, and I pronounce them
an absurd and shameful invention from beginning
to end. As you have published'these calumnies in
the most conspicuous part of your paper, I expect
that you will have a sufficient senseiofjustlce'to give
this letter an equally prominent place in your next
issue. *
The Mr. Wright to whom Mr. Belmont refers Is
one of the editorsof the New York Daily News, we
are informed by the Herald,- the same person whose
name figures so conspicuously in the “ Dodd Con
spiracy.” ..
The late Stephen A. Douglas wrote as follows
of slavery, secession, the Constitution, and the re
bellion. / This declaration Is the old-fashioned De
mocratic platform: •
gif they (the rebels) remain -In the Union, ! will'
go t as far as the Constitution will warrant me for
■securing their fights; but if they secede, lam in
favor of allowing them'] ust'as many slaves and just
as much slave territory, as .they can-hold at the point
of the bayonet. I care not whether General Jack
son violated the - Constitution' or not; I care not.
whether General Jackson; suspended all civil au
thority or not. If his acts were necessary to the
defence of the eountryj that necessity was above law.
This used to be-Judge Woodward's opinion, when
he.declaredj on the bench, that in a state of war the
laws are silent: “ Inter armes silente leges.”
The Columbus Crisis of this week announces “a
National Convention oFFeacemen.” • It says:
The State-rights and Peace Democrats of Illinois,
.tihio, Indiana, and lowa, have, we are.informed
definitely determined to, hold a mass convention at
Cincinnati, on Tuesday, October mu, proximo. No
formal call wiilbe ■ issue das, without an indepen
dent organization, it. is deemed sufficient to rely
upon“unanimous consent” to insure a fine conven
tion. Those who agree in principle from other
States, are expected and Invited to participate.
The design'of the convention; It~ is understood; is
not to oppose General McClellan, but to reunite
the Peace men. Mr. Harris, of Maryland, who de
clared that “McClellan will be beaten everywhere
as he was at Antietam,” will he in attendance.
Mr.'Pendleton’s personal is as unmlstakeable
as it te laconic. .Here is the Congressional record
January's, 1863,'Mr. Dunn said : 1 ask the unani
mous consent of the House for leave to introduce a
hill to facilitate the transportation of troops, stores,
and malls of the United States between the city of
.Washington, Point of Rocks, and the city of Pitts-'
burg. ■
Mr. Eendieton. I object.
Thus/Mr. Pendleton's armorial peace-war motto :
is, “I object■ and General‘McClellan’s war-peace
motto; ‘‘ I don’t remember,” The impossible coa
lition of these principles is intended to form the
policy of a new Democratic Administration. Mr,
Pendleton McClellan’s letter, while
“ Little Mac ” forgets the Chicago platform.
General Rousseau's experience during the first
.teoubles in Kentucky throws ,some-light.on the cha
racter of the' compact between General McClellan
and the rebel General Buckner. Rousseau tried to
raise'troops in Kentucky, but was opposed directly
In his efforts by General McClellan.and ,his favorite
aid, Judge Yey, the author of all the “ Napoleonic
proclamations.” The rebels meanwhile were draw
ing into their ranks all the young adventurers of
•Kentucky: '
“ During his endeavors to prooure authority to
raise troops, Rousseau was in General Scott’s offlco.
While sitting there, a letter was brought in, which;
General Scott read with evident satisfaction, and,
turning to an aid or his secretary, he: said in a tone
so loud that everybody in the room heard him:;
‘ There, what do, yon think of that 1 ; General
McClellan writes me that Buckner has agreed to
keep the'Confederate troops but of Kentucky.’ . >.
: “As General Scott had apparently spoken simply
what was written, Rousseau, unable to contain his. -
disgust at such a suppression of a material portion ,
of. Buckner’s agreement,-added: rYes,.and he also
told ,your man, McClellan, what he does not appear
to have told you, that ho would keep out the Fede
ral troops,too.’ . : .-i. - -'f.-i :j : T
“ General : Scott-turned Ms expressive face full
upon Rousseau with a look that showed ho had a- '
; new revelation of McClellan’s chaiacter, hut said
nothing.”
Finally Rousseau got the ear of the President:
“Well,” said the President, “I am inclined to
grant you the authority, but it’s a matter for the
Secretary of War. What do you.say, Cameron 7”
“ I say do it,” said Cameron, And so the Louisville
Legion was raised.
The soldiers in four hospitals in Maryland re- :
ccntly expressed their preferences for the Presiden
tial nominees by voting. The total number of votes
cast was 2,481, of which Lincoln had 2,074, McClel
lan 606, and Fremont 51. McClellan received 1 vote ,
In 8. On the evening of the llth instant, the 13th
"West Virginia Volunteers'took a vote for the Presi
dency, which resulted aB follows: Abraham Lincoln
41S, McClellan IS. The rebel sick and wounded in
the Frederiok Hospital thus indicated their choice:
-Llncolna, McClellan 18i-neutral 2.- ’ TKfee Indiana
regiments -In Sheridan’s command gave the follow
ing vote: Lincoln 901, McClellan 68, Fremont 7.
The soldier's vote attracts much inquiry, and
the rules for distributing tickets, &c., are thus ex
plained : “ The Chief Executive! of. the different 2
States, or the State Committee of eaoh political
part/, Is to designate an agent for each army corps,
whose credentials' are to be signed by the State
Executive, or the chairman of the Committee, as
the case may be. These credentials secure him a
pass to the army, and on reaching thero ho may
place his tickets in such hands as he pleases for
general distribution. Civilian Inspectors from each
political party—one for every brigade—are.alsoto"
have ’ access to the army, to see that the elections
are fairly conducted, and military commanders are
likewise charged to see that the law is honestly exe
cuted.” These regulations are highly satisfactory.
General McClellan, either very innocently or
quite unscrupulously declares—' 11 1 want Union j I .'
ask for nothing more.” The rebel debt is between
two thousand arid two thousand five hundred mil
lions. of dollars. This Mr. Fernando Wopd thinks'
we ought to pay; and if the Union is reconstituted
according to the Democratic doctrine, ire shallhave ;
to assume this enormous debt. The South will, of
course, demand, as one condition, the assumption of
its debt, and- certainly the sale of what remains of
its “independence” atthejprice of twenty-five hun-~,
dred millions of dollars, would bo the-greatest bar- -
gain-ever made. It is well obseryed ithat when
"Capitalists support a nomination whose success
would lead to such a result as this', one is led either'
to doubt their sagacity, or to fcSl a suspicion that,
they-have some of the Confederate debt stowed,
away in their wallets, bought at the'price of three
cents ontho dollar.
. “ Democrats ” (says a California- paper) are
constitutionally, morally, and religiously opposed to
“ mixing; politics with religion.’-’ They are abso
lutely .ferocious upon all.ministers of the Gospel
who -venture to express their ;detestation,of man
stealing, adultery, the selling of one’s own children,
and the kindred abominations of slavery. All this
Is “ fanaticism.” It is “ mixing politics with reli
gion.” It is outrageous, wicked, unchristian, and
altogetherinsufferabie. ; But it is all right to preach
up slavery as a “ divine institution." “ Last Sun
day,’ ’ says the Solano Herald, “at the close of the
services held by the Pacific Methodist Church
(South) at Rockville, a large number of Berlali’s
' Campaign Press were distributed among the faith,
ful.” : . v : . ...
The Boston Advertiser, remarks: “ The silence
of Hon. Caleb Cushing in this campaign has been
the subject of.a good deal of remark. We observe
that at the Newburyport meeting last week Mr. R.
s; Spofford spoke of the ‘constrained absence of
Geheral'Cnshlng.’ We may infer from this that
Mr. Cushing will be heard from before the campaign
is over.” .... : -
The representative of the McClellan party in
New England Is Mr. Joseph Story Fay, who cele
brated the last Fourth of July by hoisting the stars’
and stripes at half mast overLis own house. -
The Alta Californian relates that in the Copper
head Convention at MarysviUe a peaoe-hypocrito
proposed three cheers for the Stars and Stripes.
There wai n o sebond—no response whatover. The
traitors were ashamed to cheer a flag whioh they,
won’t fight for, and whioh was at that moment hang
ing over them, Union down,
Gen. Wool; in .addressing a body of recruits
who were on their way to the front, remarked that
they wero needed there “to put down rebels in
arms, as well as to frustrate the schemes of the trai-.
tors who had assembled at Chicago;’’
The Copperhead papers have suddenly dropped
the expression “ Lincoln hirelings.” It Is said to be
out of regard l'or the feelings of General McClellan,.
who still continues to draw his pay as a major
general, though out of service for nearly two years
past. , '
Ex-Fresidont Fillmore, who, in 1856, declared
that the eleotion of Fremont to the office of Presi
dent would justify the South in‘rebelling, has, of
course, taken sides for McClellan, yet he talks about
“ saving the Union 1” ~
letters from tbe People.
A good citizen and a true Democrat closes an ox
oellcnt letter to The Press, which, wo regret, is too
long to publish, with the following earnest words:
« The hour I spentdast Monday evening listening
to the patriotic eloquence of-the noble Dougherty Is
still-before--me: -He knows me-not; but he is my
friend, true and honest, for- he spoke from heart to'
heart,- as only such a man can speak.. I too have,
been a Democrat. lam one - still, but* rather than
support the so-called -Democratic- party of the pro-'
sent'day, arrayed and maintained to carry- out the
petty principles of party shackles, I would rather
sacrifice my rightto vote forever hereafter.
“ But right Is might,- and will triumph. The future

and prosperity, and'the day is yet to come when,

A MONARCHY IN TUE SOUTH.
To the Editorof tKePress: -
Smv’Among the issues of the present oonfilct
-•with the rebellion, -I do not remember to have seen
presented-to the people of -the free States the real
and paramount - aim of the Southern insurgents,
which is no other than the establishment of ~d‘
monarchy. I have long thought that the leading
i members of Southern society hod-little faith Ii) re
publican institutions, and less love for them, judging '
from their conversation, and from the levity and'
contempt.with which they treat the doctrine of
man’s political equality, as announced in the De
claration of Independence, South Carolina, first 1
and foremost In the. attempted disruption' of this-1
Government, has not such a republican form of go-ii
FOUR CENTS.
'VOrnment as the other stateshave,' anil: nowhere in
; v the South have there ever been free free
•speech, and a free press, as in the North. And yet,
notwithstanding all this, I was hardly prepared to
believe that the people of the "South would goto
war, a 3 soon as the prospect of. their controlling
power over the.vthole country was at an end, for
the express purpoie of destroying free Institutions
and of establishing a monarchy on this continent]
; until I was told, a few weeks ago, that this is the
.whole and sole aim of the rebellion.
My Informant is a native of South Carolina, a
man who has grown gray in the service ol his coun
try, and who now- occupies a high and honorable
position under the Government; who; Is, moreover,
a devout member of the Church and a Christian
gentleman, and who could have no other motive in
making htt statement than that of telling what ho
know to be the truth., While the rebellion was yet
In its first stages he was importuned,; time and
again, by pressing letters from relatives and friends
in the South, to join them In their contemplated ;
movement to establish a new government. It was
urged on the score of his nativity, as well as of
friendship and ambition. His one uniform and per
sistent reply was that be owed no more to South
Carolina than the mere accident of hia birth; that
he owed everything else of position, honor, eduoa-,
tion, protection, and fealty to the United States;
and that, having.an oath of loyalty to the General
Government registered in Heaven, he could not go
against it. .Still pressed, and Importuned, and ha
rassed, this faithful son of the Republic at last re
turned answer to these faithless conspirators that
he had made up his mind once for ali to live and die
under the old fthg, for whose honor he had served
the gf eater part of a long life. From that day to
this he has never received a line or a message from
his Southern friends. * *■
While this correspondence was going on, the plan
of procedure for the establishment of a monarchy;
in, the South was thus revealed to my Informant—;
Vic : First, the South, would 'soon secure Its inde
pendence by force of arms, in casotho North op

that the war, which is tho cause of-high prices, was

• The chief topic yesterday in monetary circles was the;;
European news touch ing the flnan cial crisis on the:
other side. It- is Authoritatively stated that the Leeds
.Banking Company, one of,the,foremost of its kind in
England, has failed. The liabilities amount to about
£600,000 to'depositors aind chstomers,'and to about
£1,000.000 in the shape of endorsements on- bills, some
of which are belieyed to be of doubtfn! character. A
heavy failure in the woolen trade attended the stoppage.-
of the bank, and every similar bank failure will result
in more or less commercial- ruin; The advance in the
Bank of England rate of discount is operating in favor
of an increase of the reserve as compared with the lia
"bility ; bnt tills will rather tend to tighten than relieve
the pressure for money among the mushroom joini stoek:;
companies, upon whose fate hang, to a considerable ex
tent, the fortunes of a large portion of the mercantile
community, for the entire nation has been overtrading
for the last three years,'and English merchants, during
that time have'been a 3 much speculators as those of our
own country. The rebel loan, according to the latest
advices! had declined heayilydn, Europe, and Federal
securities had; improved.Oh September 24lhfive_
twenHeswere quoted in Lohdohat 44 and in Amster
.dam at ; 46)£. i Viewed in connection with the recent
mercantile failures ih Chicago, the effect of 'this’ Euro
pean neWB is to inspire our -merchaits with more cau
tion and calmness in their business speculstions.

In a recent,.sale In New York, through a broker of
merchandise, amounting to 820 000, for gold, it was
claimed the tax of one-eighth of one per centum, or
825, could be paid in legal- tender Treasury notes. Tbs
Collector insisted on the payment of gold or Its equiva
lent. The decision of the Commissioner of Internal Re
venue having been requested, he leplied that the ques
tion to he determined was not in what manner the tax
shall he paid,hut upon, what baßis it shall be computed,
adding “If you have sold goods fors2o,ooopayable
in.currency or in coin, then this sum is the measure of
the value of the goods sold; but if you sold the mer
chandise stipulating to receive $20,000 in gold, which ia '
itself an article of purchase and sale, the value of the
gold must first he ascertained. If $20,000 in gold happens
to be worth $40,000 In. legal-tender currency, the latter
sum expresses the amount.of goods sold. The tax of
$5O, being thus ascertained," is payable in Treasury
legal-tender notes. ’ ’ * -
