[Special Correspondence of The Press.] -
Sm. Loris, Oct. 30,1881.
There is so longer any doubt, evert for the most
sceptical Copperhead, that Price and his army of
renegadoes are in full retreat. To be sure, we have
not so complete and particular an account of his
disaster as could be desired, but there is no dbubt of
the main fact. He is hastening towards Arkansas.
We have waited anxiously Since the'first telegraphic
announcement of Gen. Pleasanton, that a battle
had been fought, for the details and signifloance of
the struggle. They have not, yet come to hand.
All that we yet know of the 'fighting is gained from
the telegrams of Geri. Curtis and. the. Kansas news
papers, which, indeed, may be excused for a little
excitement
,of feeling and exaggeration of exprea
lion.
The turning point of the invasion is, of course,
'the engagement at Westport, or, as it is topogra
phically called, the battle of the Big Blue, that
being the name of a considerable stream which
empties into tho Missouri a few miles below. It
was not, in the now popular acceptation, a battle
but rather a skirmish, which was subsequently
turned into a retreat. Its moral significance is as,
great, however, as if there had been more life lost.
It revealed one fact of importance—that Price did
not wish to court a fight with anything like equal
numbere. It will be understood that Price, after
leaving Lexington, had his forces pushed westward
toward Kansas City. ,At Independence he was met
by a portion of the Kansas forces, who withdrew to
their line of defence, near Wyandotte. - General
Pleasanton had kept'moving, with about four thou
sand cavalry in a line, keeping south and east of the
enemy. There was, then, on the north, the Missouri
river; on the west, Curtis; and e ozi the east, Plea-
Banton backed by Roseorans, who moved out to
Georgetown so as to , cover the capital in case Price
should double on his track. The inconvenience of
this disposition was, that not one of these divisions
was strong ' enough to engage Price's whole force
singly. Considerable delay inevitably occurred in
so creeping around the forces in the vicinity of
Lexington that no very heavy battle could be deli
vered without at least two of our divisions taking
part. The enemy moved towards the Kansas line,
and this afforded Pleasanton the opportunity of fol
lowing close up on his trail, and at the moment of
engagement with the Kansans to fall into line with
them. The most concise and intelligible account of
what did happen is told by the correspondent of the
Kansas fifty Times:
"A glorious day for Kansas and Missouri.
Kansas has been saved from invasion. A:general
battle has been fought and a great victory achieved.
I have just returned from the .front ; fifteen miles
distant. Priceisantire army is routed, and, retreat
ing rapidly south. Our cavalry are in hot pursuit,.
together with Pleasanton's mounted men.. The
enemy may strike for Fort Scott, but they will be
too closely pursued to do any damage. Thebattle
began early this• morning. Yesterday the volun
teers were hotly engaged, and Oolonels-Jennison
and Moonlight did some splendid fighting, but the
.situation looked precarious for us when Price inert- "
pied the line - of the Big Blue last night. General
Grant, of the Kansas militia, was out off, but Liu
arrived safely at Olathe. General—Pleasanton
closed the ball on Saturday night at Independence,
by capturing a large number of prisoners and three
pieces of artillery.
"This morning our 'line was Wined tive miles
south of Kansas, City on the Westport road.
Skirmishing continued ?or several-hours, when the
whole force advanced and heavy Lighting ensued.
The enemy rapidly fell back a mile and a half from
his first position. An artillery engagement ensued:
our lines slowly advancing. Fighting was kept up
for about ten miles from this point, the enemy
gradually falling back. General Pleasanton came
in on ouileft, and a grand charge followed, result
ing in a total rout of the enemy.
" When we left the front the pursuit was vigor
ously pushed by the whole cavalry force, the infan
try loliowing. Gen. Blunt-commanded the volun
teer force on the left, Gen. Digester the ()entre and
right, which was composed of Kansas State militia.
The militia covered themselves with glory ; not a
man faltered.
"The 2d Colorado, Colonel Ford commanding,
was in the thickest of the light, and made several.
brilliant charges. Colonels Jennison and Hoyt,
and the 11th, 15th and 16th Kansas, were also con
spicucnsly in the field, and displayed the utmost
valor. General Doitzler and Govenor Carney were
constantly with the advance. The loss is not heavy
on our side. Tho rebel loss is not , Itnown, bat from
indications of the dead and wounded left on the
field, they suffered severely.
Marniaduke and Shelby commanded - the rebels
on our front. .The latter .was ,severely wounded.
Prism , had 25,000 men. He burned several of his
plunder trains. The rebel General McGee was
'killed."
The telegraphhas informed You .of the subse
quent destruction of the baggage ‘ train and the
capture of four guns from the enemy. -Indeed, it is
said that only two pieces remain with the retreating
foe. This is undoubtedly a, mistake. They brought
eighteen pieces with' them into Missouri, and we
cannot learn of the capture of the Mamie°. The
losses in the battle of Sunday, 23d; are about -250
killed and wounded on each side. We have cap...
tuned nearly 800 prisoners. They lost two 'promi
nent officers. Thus was the invasion_ of Missouri
turned, and the invasion of Kansas prevented. The
enemy, In his retreat, kept well to the westward,
taking the roads running parallel with and not far
from the Kansas line. The garrison at Fort Scott,
It was reported, would be attacked, but, the enemy
passed on, and it is a convincing proof of their demo
ralized condition that they made no effort to reverse
their fortunes in this small way, by capturing a
sma 11 fort.
From the official silence of the past fewdays
we conclude that the raid is not only ended, but .
that the pursuit is ended also. We have. heard
nothing of either Price or Pleasanton since crossing
the Osage river. Will McNeil be able to overtake
him or head him off via Rolla, Springfield I We
think not. The question most natural, then, is, Can
Steele do aught.from his position at Little Rook I
We fear not. The reports coming from that !Raton
do not represent that officer as exhibiting the great
est diligence in finding out and fighting the enemy,
and unless General Herron in his tour of inspection
has been able to stir him up to the emergency, it is
doubtful if Price encounters any opposition. .
It is so.easy to conjure up in those wilds of the
trans-Mississippi vast armies, that one cannot but
wonder where they all come from. For example,
within the past week we have a reported concentra.
tion of rebels at Morganzia, another near New Or
leans ; a third army is said to be investing Little
Rock, a fourth is in the Indian Nation, above Fort.
Smith, and Price with twenty-five thousand in Mis-
SOUil, to say nothing of the forces it Shreveport,
Alexandria, on the Mexican frontier, Galireatort,
Monroe, and elsewhere. Now, if all these reports
be reliable, the rebels have a larger army west of
the Mississippi than 'they have in Virginia ; which,'
indeed, argues very badly for their sagiteity, for
with Such a force n hat place could they not take,
and hold I The truth is, as we know from observa
tion, there are many roving commands in Texas,
Louisiana, and Arkansas, but it is doubtful if their
united strength would equal •forty-five thousand
men; of these all are not armed, many are undefiled,
and nearly all in a state of poor discipline. They
are especially fond of spurs, and such soldiers are
worth but little in the warfare of the present time,
when even the infantry picket throws up his little
fortification of earth. There are many skulkers, and
there 'is good reason to believe that of the four or
five thousand recruits gathered by Price, half of
them will never reach the Arkansas line.
The event of th 6 day, or, rather, yesterday, is the
execution of six Confederate prisoners Gates,
Ladd, alunnekin, Blackburn, Bench; and Nicht:de—
in retaliation for, the foul murder of six of the corn
, mand of Major Wilson, of the 3d Missouri Cavalry,
who were,. with him, captured daring the fighting
about Pilot Knob, and afterwards most cruelly mar
dared in cold blood. The particulars of the shock
ing affair are as follows :
"Major Wilson was in command at 'Pilot Knob'
when Gen. Thos. Ewing was down in the valley of
Azcadia, within gunshot. • Wilson's little command
resisted the attack of the rebels manfully, but was
swallowed up _by the vastly superior numberifof the
w
enemy, and as entirely cut off. He was sent to
the rear and kept there until after the battle of Ar
cadiawas fought, after which he was ordered by the
rebel Gen. Fagan to be turned over to Tim Reeves,
the guerilla captain; in Freeman's command. Capt.
Usiger, of Wiison's regiment, was with him, but
was paroled at the time the ordeas given. Wil
son regarded it ,as an order fords execution, and
gate to Capt. Dater his money, watch, and some
private.messages to friends. This was the last seen
of Wilson until his body, with those of six of his
men, was found fifteen or sixteen miles south of
Union, Franklin county.
"The only reason that can be surmised for the mur
der of ahese men ie, that Wilson was energetic in
the pursuit and punishment of Reeves, nearly a
year ago, for he was a faithful officer and never
transcended his.striet military duty.'
Last Sunday evening, as some residents of Frank
lin county, young men, were out gathering persim
mons, "they accidentally came upon six human
bodies, three of which wore terribly' mutilated by
hogs. The other three had United States uniforms
on, one 'being that of a major of cavalry. The
bodies had evidently been lying there two or three
Weeks, but were still recognizable. The young men
spread the alarm In the neghborhood, and an inves
tigation, headed by Squire Klineback e vems made.
The major's body was examined first, and a number
of papers taken from his pockets. These were let
ters, orders, and despatches, addressed to Major
James Wilson, 3d Missouri State Militia Cavalry.
The other soldiers had no papers, except a letter
found on one from a devoted and loving wife to her
husband, T. E. Boyd, and signed Almira Kate.
"The citizens 'concluded to bury the bodies and
did so, but next day the affair was noised abroad,
and by a chain of coincidents the military here con
cluded that the matter demanded official attention.
Brig. Gen. Thomas Ewing instantly ordered a fall
investigation, and sent an officer and several men,
of •Wilion's command, to, identify him. - They'did
so, and their testimony is published at length in the
St.: Louis papers of this date. Suffice to say that
Assist. -Quartermaster Sergeant Albert W. Keith,
3d Missouri State Militia, Sergt. William L. Wel.;
ten, Company A, 3d Missouri State Militia, Lieut.
Col—Amos W. Manpin, 47th Missouri Volunteers,
Lieut. John F. 'L. Jacoby, quartermaster 3d Mis-
Bowl Statellilit la Cavalry, and others swore to the
identity of the bodies, and-there remains no manner
of doubt as to the bodies being those of the miesing
men. Maier Wilson's body had bullet-holes through
tbe head and breast, and, in the pockets of his
clothes were found all his official papers, orders,
and deepatcbes. The bodies of the eradiate were i.e.
cently re-interred„ but that of Major Wilson was
breught to the city in a metallic coffin, and placed
,Instate In the rotunda of the court house, over
which the national flag Is floating at half-mast,
titthe funeral takes place to-morrow. No - manner

it is necessary. The private malice of the rebels

nessee river at Fort Herman they have fired (wiTh
artillery) at two boata, disabling and capturing one
of them. Firing musketry at be* on the Tonnes
see has long been common. On the Cumberland
also 'they were firing at boats, and also on the Ohio
at Henderson and' Owensboro ify. As boats run
from this port to or these points, it becomes a se
rious question with boatmen as well as the travel
lug public.
It is a little , curious ,that no,very systematic or
adequate'attempt has been made to put an end to
this Murderous warfitio; our efforts - thus far
have aimkrather at dodging;the.balis - thankilling
the assassin. Certainly the damage aOne is vary

only, to multiply it. Every - boy along the Missis

Speech of Audiew Johnson.
"THE MOSES OP VI& COLORED NEN."
Governor Andreii Johnson's speech to the colored'
people of Nashville on, the 24th ultimo—already
noticed—is fully reported by a correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazelle, who says :
That part of the Governor's speech in which he
described and denounced the aristocracy of Nash
ville I cannot hope to render properly; but there
was one point which I must not overlook. He spoke
as follows :
"The representatives of
-this corrupt (and if you r '
will permit me almost to swear a little), this damna
ble aristocracy, taunt us with our desire to see
justice done, and charge us with favoring negro
equality. Of all living men they should be the last
to _month that phrase ; and, even when uttered in
their hearing, it should cause their cheeks to tinge
and burn 'with shame. Negro, equality, indeed!
-Why, pass, any day, along the sidewalks of High
street, where these aristocrats, more particularly'
dwell—these aristocrats, whose sons are now in the
bands of guerillas and out throats who prowl, and •
rob, and .mtird.er around our city—pass by their
dwellings, I say, and you will see as many mulatto
as negro children, the former bearing an unmistaka
ble resemblance to their aristocratic owners !
' "Colored men of Tennessee ! This,too, shall ceaset•
Tour wives and daughters shill no longer be drag
ged into a concubinage, compared to which polyga- -
my ,1s a 'virtue, to satisfy the brutal lusts of slave“ .
holders and overseers ! - Henceforth the sanctity Cif ,
Go 's holy law of marriage shall be respected in
your persons, and the'great State of Tennesseeshallt
no more give her sanction to your degradation and , :
your shame !" - •
"Thank 'God !" thank God !" came from the lips
Cita thousand women, who in their own persons had
experienced the hellish iniquity of the mansellor's
code. '" Thank God !" fervently echoed the fathers,
husbands, and brothers of these women. -
' , And if the law protects you in the posseision of
your wives . and children, if the • law shields • those
whom : you hold dear .from the unlawful grasp of
lust, will you endeavor to be true to yourselves, and
Blatin, as it were death itself, the path of lewdness,
crime, and vice 1" - • -
"We will! we will !" cried the assembled thou--
sands ; and; joining in a sublime and tearful enthu
siasm, another mighty shout went up to heaven.
" Looking at this vast crowd of colored people,"
continued the Governor, "and reflecting through
what a dorm of persecution and obloquy they are
compelledto pass, I am almbst induced to wish that,
as in the days of old, a Moses might arise, who'
should lead them safely to their promised land of
freedom and happiness."
• "Yon are our Moses," shouted several voices, and
the exClamation was caught, up and cheered until
the capitol rung again. . •
_• - •,- --
"God,". continued the speaker, "no doubt has
prepared somewhere an instrument for tho. great
work he designs to perform in behalf of this out
raged people ; and in due time your loader will come
forth ; your "Illoses will be revealed to you."
Vie want no Moses but ycin !" again shouted the
crowd..
" Well, then," replied the speaker, "humble and
unworthy as I am, if no other better shall be found,
I will indeed be your Moses, and lead you through
.the Red Sea of war and bondage to a fairer future
of liberty and peace. I speak now as one who foals
the world Ida country, and all who love equal rights
his friends. I:speak, too, as a citizen of Tennessee.
I. am here on my own soil; and here I mean to stay
and• fight this great battle of truth and justice to a
triumphant end: Rebellion and slavery shall, by
God's good help, no longer pollute our State. Loyal
men, Whether white or black, shalt alone control her
destinies; and when this strife in which we are
all engaged is past ;trust, I know, we shall have a
better state of things, and shall all -rejoice that
honest labor reaps the fruit of its own industry, and
that every man has alair•ehance in the race of life."
It is impossible, to describe the enthusiasm which
followed these words. Joy beamed , in every counte
nance. Tears and laughter followed each other in
quick succession. The great throng moved and
swayed back and forth in the intensity of emotion . ;
and shout atter shout rent the air. .

the candidates presented by the respective politi
cal parties. On the invitation of this committee,
many citizens of great experience in public affairs
and of approved statesmanship have addressed you
in public meetings canvassing the ' principles we
have professed, criticising those bf our opponents,
and comparing the merits and demerits of those
claiming the popular suffrage.
• Our efforts, and those of kindred organizations in
other,States, wore producing their legitimate re
sults, The people, thoroughly awakened to tt e im
portance of the political contest through which the
country was passing,' and challenged to a compari
son of the platforms of Baltimore and Ctdcago,
were everywhere declaring their settled determina
tion to sustain tie Government. These indications
of popular sentiment were so wide-spread and so
strong that our opponents seemed to have abandon
ed the struggle, anff ta.citly to adinit defeat. Our.
overwhelming victories in --Maine, Vermont, Con
necticut; Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana, justified
the belief that' in the great and final combat the
friends of the Union would carry every loyal State,
by majorities which would forever silence all efforts
to, distract the attention of the people from the vital
struggle in the field for the maintenance of republi
can institutions, blast the hopes of rebels in arms'
,
and give the Government the moral support which.
alone can secure us a lasting and beneficent peace.
. A careful canvass of this State justified the wild
est hopes of the most sanguine, indicating a majo
rity for our candidates such, as has rarely, if ever,
been recorded. This result was not only undoubted,
but unquestioned. Our opponents, generally so quick
to offer wagers upon their success, were found =-
Willing to sustain themselves by a resort to that
style of argument, and maintained only a scatter
ing lire along their line, appearing to await in Sul
lenness their inevitable doom.
But suddenly, and almost miraculously, they
seemid endowed with new energies and buoyed up .
by fresh hopes. ;They were at all points reawakened,
as if by magic, to a •renewal of the contest, and ex
hibited the utmost confidence that they would carry
this State. August Belmont; the groat European
banker, through whom foreign capitalists for years
past have furnished the material aid by Watch the
Copperheads have been kept .In the field, was
blatant with offers to bet sums that only he could.
venture in such a way. Gov. Seymour proclaimed
the certainty of his election.,His personal adhe
rents were equally, sanguine, nd the organ of his
party assumed a tone of confidence which could
only be justified by the poisession of the most posi
tive facts.
It was evident that some alarming influences were
at work to produce and justify this assumption of
victory, which it becathe the duty.Of the friends of
Union promptly to unveil, and, if possible, to coun
teract. Fortunately, our efforts to discover the pro.'
Coss • by which Belmont, heymour,and. their sup
porters hoped ta thwart the will of the people were
crowned with a prompt and decided success. The
intervening band of Providence was stretched out
to expose the contemplated outrages upon the bal
lot.box, and to save the country from a great and
crowning disaster.
The discovery at Baltiniore and Washington of a
systematic amlorganized scheme to forge the votes
of the soldiers, gave unmistakable evidence of the
source whence Messrs. Belmont and Seymour drew
their courage to renew the contest which they had
virtually given over as lost. The details of
gentle attempt at fraud have been exposed and pub
lished to the world. It contemplated the forging of
soldiers' names, forging of officers' certificates '
and a
wholesale stuffing of the ballot box in almost every
election district inthe State. Gen. Grant says the
rebels in the South have robbed the cradle and the
graVe to swell the ranks of those who assail the Go-.
.vernment. Theircompatriots here have robbed the
tomb for a like ,purpose—taking the names of
thousands who sleep in unknown graVes, and boldly
prisenting them as living men still in the field.
The men who attempted these frauds are the con
fidants and employees.of Gov. Seymour, Peter Gag
ger, August Belmont, and other leaders of the
Copperhead party. •The information by which
they were enabled to give the names of mil;
- diers and the companies' and regiments to
which they belonged, could only have been ob
tained from the Adjutant General's office of
this State and was doubtless furnished from
that department. The places where these papers
were ..forged, and from whence. they were Issued,
were the offices of the State agents appointed by
'Governor Seymour, at Baltimore and Washington.
_The persons to whom these forged documents are
;known to have been sent are Peter Cagger and Gen.
' Farrell, than. whom none are . more prominent or
more . uncompromising opponents of the General
'Government. Thus, the .chain .which binds these
frauds to the Copperheads is complete.,:. No link is
broken. -.The proof is not to be refuted. We point
you to the.tesUmony in the confident assurance that
it will sustain every statement we have made, every
conclusion atwhich tvehave arrived. >

The Cincinnati Pries ,
.Current of Wednesdayllins
speaks of the recent military order preventing the ex
portation of bogs from Kentucky:
The military commander in Kentncky had tirobibited
the transportation 'of 'hogs over the Central liat/road to
this city. as ha supposes all the Kentucky hogs will be
needed Louisville: to enable the Government pack
ers to get all they . will need to till the contracts with the
Commissary -Department. This will keep close on to
one hundrtd thousand he ga from this market, and will.
to that 'extent diminish; the'picking at this place. This
greatly diiappoints some •of our woken, because the
receipts from, other sections will be light until
toward the :,fliet of next month. About 2.000 head
sold during the past week at 510.00 to $ll, gross.
We will say that bogs driven from 'Kentucky to the
river are permitted .
to cross on the lorries by the pro
vost marshal if the owners prove 'themselves to be
loyal men, so that a considerable number will be driven
fri in the border counties in case no farther restrictions
aro placed upon the trade over the Ohio river. • We hope.
the pork packing enterprise of the commissary depart
ment at Louisville this season trill not prove as unpro
fitable as that at Knoxville, Tennessee, did last winter.
We will just say that pork packing is a science which it.
takes as much time and study to acquire as the art ef
War; and that the most difficult part of is to know how:
to guard against thieves.
