pUln that individnaia and parties of men,
specially appointed and Instructed by yon to

statemont is in tbojniain correct. Where in
dividuals and partios of mon violate the Uws
of war, they will Ibe tried, and, if found
guilty, will, certainly be-punished, whether
acting under your special appoitmeht and in
structions or not. Ten must be aware, den*
eral, that no orders of yours can save from
punishment, spioi, marauders, robbers, incea
jlianes, guerilla bands; etc., who violate the
war • You cannot give immunity to
crimes. But let us understand each other on
this point. If yontsend armed forces, wear
ing the garb of soldiers, and dnly organised
and enrolled as legitimate belligerents, to de
stroy railroad bridges, etc., as l military act,
*® kill them, If possiblo, in opon warfare
or if we capture them, we will treat them as
prisoners of war. But it is well understood'
that you have sent numbers.of your adherents
in the garb of peaceful citizens, and under
ftlse pretences, through our lines into North
ern_Miss°uri to rob and destroy the proporty
of Union mon, and to barn and destroy raU
road bridges, thus ondangering-ihe lives of
thousands, and this, too, without military ne
cessity or possible militaryudrwnunjre. More
over, peaceful, citizens of Missouri, quietly
working on their farms, "hart Been" insrlgated
by your emissaries to take up arms as insur
gents, and to rob, plunder and commit treason
and murder. Thev do not even aet'undcr the
gprb of soldiers, but under false pretences,
and in the guise of private citizens. Ton
certainly will not pretend that men? guilty of
such crimes, although specially appointed and
instructed by you, are entitled to the respect
and immunities of ordinary prisoners of war,
If you do, will you ireifer me to a single au
thority on the laws bf war wbieb recognizes
such a claim. I am daily expecting inltnro
tions respecting the exchange of prisoners of
war. I will communicate with you on that
subject ae soon ae they are received,

Daring tho pa« fair day* there hart been'
"thwa fuueral. of soldiers whoso bodies h»To
. beanrsturned by their friends for fatermcnb
. , 'those of Smith, Sahl and Harper. ; In ouch
, ’ °***» istaehments from two of ohf companies

- - - gave token'of their respeot for the memory of
the.hraTe departed; and their sympathy with
V . the bereaved friends, by snob military honors
- as are customary In the army.
-This is Tight and-proper; and we are glad
to see so many of our citir cm—merchants,
manufacturers and professional men—march
ing through the muddiest of streets, in tho
-- “JJt disagreeable of weather, to pay the last
monte of rcrpect to the memory of those who
had so gallantly gone forth in tho serrice of
onr boioTod oountry.and offered up their lives
- fa defonee of our liberties. No doubt tho

-' . Wh*t_we desired to suggest to tho only ail
... *t»ry orgaalxatlon th*t now remains In our
.vicinity—theHooeGuards—was this: Let
the proper offieer* call a meeting of those who
•hall represent the.
' S°2* ®TAU«gfc«ny end vicinity in Excelsior
s*ri those on this side the river at City
H*n—and Jat them re-organise the Guards
into two.divisions; then the proper offieer,
commanding/could call out, at a few hoars*
„ aotloof» soluble detachment for a funeral
escort, or for any other purpose, at short
notice. ;
By this means a military spirit would be
engendered, which would do much to re
- ..••wltia the organisation , of the Home

• , to the departed heroes whose bodies are
' > ********* for interment, would be guaranteed,
we hare expended time and money in
i eauippingy anaing and drilling onr Home
Guard*. /The expenditure wae not in vain,
•met almost the entire organisation has been

But now that our armies have attained the
maximum required in the field, |/et us gather

The War Party in England.
From ilu»K*ziche*tM Examiner imfllmu, j*q. 4.
With the prospects of peace gar sympathies
begin to change tides. We feol Terr much for
tboio boisterous patriots, who hare gone on
the supposition that tho American gorera
ment Is the slave of tho people, and that tho
poople are all maniacs or fools. Thoy already
behay sense of discomfiture. The
Africa s advices laid them, figuratively speak
ing on their backs. Thoy showed a calmness,
a moderation, •& degree of reflectiveness far
superior to their own. Instead of a whirl
wind of blustering defiance, they fdt on their
hot cheeks thegenUe gales-of peace. As soon
as they recovered from ihe.mommontarj dis
appointment, they set to.work to prove,-as
well as they were able, thar these peaeefhl in
dications meant nothing; and that war was
•till as likely as ever.'" Wo do not affirm that
all danger 1 has pissed awayj we are hardly
prepared to..expect- the,immediate release of
Messrs. Mason and Slidell in Liverpool: and
wo think it quite possible that the question
of peace OT war may yet-depend considerably
upon - the reception Which our government
shall give to Mr. . Seward’s next dispatch. '
This, however, Will not help our good frfrada
who have heen,calculating so confidently on
American obstinacy andmadness. We submit
that, however the affair may end, the Ameri
cans have, already cleared their reputation.
They are not is a passion. Thoy mik quite
as rationally and coolly as we do. They arc
not mobbing the government. There have
been no Anti-British demonstrations. Tbare
has been no indignation meeting at New York
like that whioh was beldid Liverpool. There
is a total absence of rant Mid -“bunkum." It
is clear that the people are quietly awaiting
the decision of the Cabinet, and that the
President will be upheld in any course which
bemaydeOm it his duty to pursue. Hence
if a war should, after all; be the sad result
of .thepresent misunderstanding, it will be
uqjust to asoribe it to the prejudices and pas
sions of the American people. they
may be, but they will assuredly enter upon it,
qnlte as mnch as we shall,ln compHanoe with
the decisions of the coolest judgment, and in
the conviction that they are right; But, if the
affair should be settled p*oeably, whaf will
our railers do ? 3 One would say they ought
for once to render amplojustice to the moder
ation and good temper of the Americans; and
acknowledge that a republic can, on a pinch,
be as wise as oligarchs and kings. Win-they*
adopt this creditable ooursef By no means.
.Their ingenuity willeaiily supply material for
invective. They will not be shut up to the
honest duty of doing justice to a people whom
they are resolved to black-ball at alfhaaards.
They will tell us that the Americans, like all
bullies, are cowards too; that the* talked
boabtingly till they found out that we-were in
earnest, when they got down from the stump
and qulotly chewed the leek.

The Battle near Somerset} Ky--lu
teresting Details.
Cisciji.naii, Jan. 21.*— This sonuD|'i ps -
contain full accounts of the battle at Mill
bpring*. It was a fair, open battle, and the
rebel* fought well and were overcome only by
inpcrior fighting on oor tide.
According to rebel account* their force
consisted of 10 infantry regiment*, 3 batteries
and some cavalry, altogether about 10,000
men. They fought in the bushwhacking
style, from ravines, and behind trees, bushes
and rocks.
The brunt of the battle devolved on the
4th Kentucky, and 2nd Minnesota, 9th Ohio*.
10th Indiana. For nearly three hours the
roar of musketry wa* kopt up. .
Short!, .ftor 11 o'clock, Col. Hoskins soc-
CMdod in flanking theensmy on tho extreme
nght, when the oth Ohio and 2nd Minnesota
o! !*. r ? .*‘. tb h »l<">ou, with triumphant yells,
which broke the rebels ranks and. the rout
began, They fied pell mell to their' camp,
strewing the road with muskets, blankets,
overcoats and knapsacks, and abandoned two
guns and caissons.
Zollicoffer was shot, throngh the heart, at
tho head of his staff, by Col. Pry, of the 4th
Kentucky regiment. It appears that Zolli
eoffer lost his way in the bushes, and sud
denly emerged before Col. Fiy, who. was ac
companied by some staff offloars. The two
parties mistook esch other for Mends, and ap
proached within a few ] yards of each other;
when finding their mutual mistake, both
halted and prepared for a hand to hand con
flict. One of Zollieoffer’t aide shot at Colonel
Fry, but only brought his horse down. The
federal Colonel immediately drew his six
shooter, and brought Zolllooffer from his sad?
die at the Srst Are. This rebel etaff deserted
their chiefs body, which was taken to Somer
eet the day after the battle.
An East writing to the Com
mercial, says all the credit and honor ef thie
battle is due the 10th Indiana, oth Ohio, 4th’
Ken tncky, and 2d Minnesota, for the, did all
the fighting single handed, with the excep
tion of what support they weired from artfl
*«T- They all fought nobly, and never wa
rerod from a fixed determination to gain the
victory. Combatants were so hear each other
atono time that the powdor burned their
faces in discharging their pieces.
From Washington.
