The Ners.
Fcr several weeks past hns not, it must
be confessed, ben yery faroratle to the
Union cause. The rebels, it is true.have
not gained any great victory, but since
the reverse at Richmond small advantage
have been pained along almost the en
tire line between the Union and Confed
erate Armies ' Marfreboro, Terin. has
been re-t3ken by the Confederates, ur
der Col. Forest, with three or four Al-
abama and Georgia Kegiments, Mor
gan with three thousand men has burned
one or two villages in Kentucky, and is
threatening Lexington and Frankfort,
which occasioned intense excitement at
LouisvilleCovingtori, Newport, and over
almost the entire State, and even in Cin
cinnati, Ohio. A small town in Indiana,
. .
ten miles aWe Evansville,has been cap-
tured by a few rebels . from Kentucky,
aided by the secessionists of the vicinity.
A confederate army is organizing in Ar
kansas with the avowed purpose of inva
ding 'Missouri. Curtis has been com
pelled to cat his way out of Arkansas,
thereby sacrificing nearly, all that had
been gained by his campaign in that
State. Besides all these, Bridge' burn
ers and guerrillas are becoming emboli
neJ, and nre constantly committing dep
redations in Tennessee, Kentucky, Ar
kansas, and ia the vicinity cf Neiv Orleans.-;
The rebel ircnekd gunboat
Arkansas kzs escaped from the Yazoo
River, and has passed through the fleet
of boats lying above. Vicksburg, badly
injured, it is true, but doing more inju
ry to our boats than the herself sustain
ed, and is now being repaired under the
batteries at that' city. Near Richmond
'all is quiet," but it is admitted there is
danger cf James River being blockaded
eo as to cut off McClelland supplies. .
- The . fanlt is, . our army has dwindled
way until it is not adequate to the task
it has to perform. Our army never was
as large as represented there never was
near five hundred thousand soldiers un
der government, pay at any time. 'And
what-we did have nine, months ago has
been reduced in numbers nearly one:half.
Thef e has not been very many killed in
any one engagement, but ail in the ag
gregate amounts to many' thousand.
And if we could count up those who
have died from disease ; . the wounded ;
those mustered cut of service on account
of physical. disability and sickness; the
deserters; the prisoners and those let
free on parole, they would reduce the
array to about $225,000 effective men.
And it .is divided and scattered on a
line many thousand miles in extent from
Maryland to Colorado ; from the Chesa
peak to the mouth of the Rio Grand;
and frcci Cairo to the gulf of Mexico.'
For, a year past the rebel army has been
increasing, by means of conscriptions, ua-
till ia numbers it far exceeds ours. Con
tequently they are enabled to act on the
offensive. But their strength is nearly
exhausted. : When the three hundred
thousand soldiers 'now being raised, are
put in tlte field, we will again out-number
them two to one, and they can never
again fill up their army.
Ia the Shenandoah Valley. Gen Pope
is puhicg forward after his old fashion,
at latest dates his advance - was within
forty miles of Richmond. - ;
Foreign arrivals brisg papers from
Kn-tar.vl published ' sine they received
intelligence'of the fight before Richmond.
They almost universally assert that the
Federals were badly defeated ; but with
the exception of a few papers that have
from the commencement of the war been
clamorous , for intervention, there is no
disposition manifested to interfere with
our affairs.
Gen. Hillock has been calIedfrora the
west to Washington, but for what pur
pose is as yet unknown. Various news
paper speculations are afloat: "That he
is to be . made Commander-ia-Chref,"
cr "Secretary of War," or that "he is to
tupercede McClellan,' &c, &c.
The following items 'we glean frcra
the latest telegrams:
The New York Ilerld's Washington
dispatch ch'ras the 8uthority-of saying
that Hallcxk dc2s not ccme to' Washing
ing as Commander-in-chief. It is be-
lievc-d that Stamen r;ill retire,. and that j
President Lincoln' will appoint -Banks
Secretary cf War, and Ilalleck as Milita
ry adviser. " - ' .
' Cyr-thiana, Ky., was surrendered to the
rebels Tbt:rr.!y afternoon. A scldier

r!:1:rn frcr.i Cvnthb r.a, reports the killed
dersoa, Ky., and Newberg, Ind., on Sun
day, but tha rebels had skedaddled.
A free colcred man escaped from Rich
mond, cays the rebel hts ia the seven
day's battle was 32,000. Gen. Ewall was
severely wounded. Gen. Johnston has
experienced a relapse mortification has
set in, and his wound was feared to be
fatal.- 1
Arrivals from Sperryville report almost
daily skirmishing between SigePs pickets
and the rebel scouts near Luary Gap.
John S. Phelps has been appointed
Military Governor of Arkansas, with full
power to re-establish the authority, cf, the
Government there in accordance with the
Constitution.,' ' ' ." ' ;" I
There is reason to believe the Presi
dent will soon lay down certain rules for
the conduct of the war, such rule3 as any
one, sincerely desirous of carrying out
the principles of the confiscation act would
adopt and inforce. It is now known that
the President, under the advice of Gen.
Scott and with the acquiesence of Mc
Clellan, Las called llalleck to Washirg-
ten to act as General-in-Chief of - the ar
mies of the United States. . He will have
control of the operations in the field, thus
relieving !Slanton cf sorae.cf his official
business. .::
Gen. Pops telegraphs the war depart
ment that a cavalry expedition under Gen.
King left Fredericksbury on the evening
of the 19th, and after , a forced march,
made a descent at. daylight, Sunday, on
the Virginia Central road, at Beaver Dam
Creek. 25 miles west of Hanover Junc
tion and 35 miles from Richmond - They
destroyed the railroad and telegraph for
several miles, and burned a depot which
contained a large amount of ammunition
and other valuable property. The whole
country was thrown into a great state of
alarm. , One private on our side was
wounded. , The cavalry marched SO miles
in 30 hours. ,

Friday evening, the 27th cf Jcne, I
reached St..JosejIi Saturday morning,
just . in time. to. be too late fcr the St.
Louis train, and wa? consoled that I. could
start on the coming Monday morning.
Finding my way,, with Sergt. Polock, to
the camp near St. Joseph, I met my for
mer associates the Nebraska First, Capt,
J. D. N..Thornpson, who is in good health
and spirits. The Capt. is in the pride cf
his glory, in Cavalry exercise -and the
men seem delighted with their leaden
Mounted on one of the Captain's sorrel
chargers, and making my way to the
depot, night found me at Stuartville, Mo.
in the kind family of J. Hikes,- of Ohio,
formerly ; and Sunday witnessed me in a
rebel church building, addressing a few
true Union men, and a large number" of
Rebels, on the subject .of the Union -the
glorious Union, and the exceeding" infa- j
my cf Rebellion. , Monday, joined Sergt.
P., and cn Monday night, slept on a Mis
sissippi Packet, reaching St. Louis Tues
day morning.' Tuesday night, cfT for
Memphis, and landed Thursday night.
Friday, the 4th, went on shore, and found
the First Nebraska in town, in a thick
grove, with good water, and all the sur
roundings of the most pleasant character.
How kind the people have-, beeny to get
up, and take care uf such" a magnificent
forest.unttl we should need it; and then
give place so gracefully at the 'point of
the bayonet. '."!" .', " :',' ' .
The men are in btter health than' they
have ever been since we left the .Terri
tory. Every cheerful ... countenance tells
how well they have got over the fatigue
and exposure of Pittsburg Landing. '
- The finest features of the.. day, on the
Fourth, was the dinner given by the First
Nebraska, to Gen. Grant and the report
ers of the Press, and a few other officers.
If I should puff our officers and speeches,
and the dinner, you would think I .was
partial, perhaps. I will therefore quote
from 'the Un ion Appeal, of Memphis, a
paper coming .into existance under the
protecting folds of the Stars and Stripes.
It says:
",. "Mr. Richardson',, of the . New York
Tribune, proposed the health of General
Thayer, as the representative of the Union
of Yankee shrewdness . and Western
pluck ; born in Massachusetts, reared and
adopted citizen of the Great" Wrest- It
may be pleasanter to be a brigadier han
a Colonel, but it must, nevertheless, hae
been hard to resign the command of Reg
iment that loved and confided so much in
him", as the First Nebraska did in Col.
Thayer. .They seemed proud of his po
sition, however,; and considered, it . an
honor to themselves ; and the separation
is the less" felt ' that they belong to his
Brigade. Mr.:: Richardson's opinion is
that Gen.-Thayer is as graceful 7at the
festive board, as he is brave onthe.field ;.
that Gen. Grant is as pleasant as a .gen-
tlentleman, as he is heroic and skilled as
a leader ; and that the Nebraska First is
indeed a first rate Regiment,'either to
fight or celebrate with." .. ' 1 "

- I herewith transmit to the columns-of
your paper a few lines in reference, to a
skirmish which occurred at Locust Grove,
twelve miles south of this camp, on the
3d inst. : : ' "' ". ""
The 2d brigade under the command of
Colonel Judson, arrived at Cabin Creeki
July 2d..:'The Colonel received infor
mation that .the enemy, 500 strong, under
qoI. Stanwatie, the notorious rebel leader
of the hostile Cherokees, had left Cabin
Creek, the day previous, taking a north
erly course, but had seat his supply and
baggage train, to Locust Grove. . . .
Colonel Judson immediately directed
one section of . Captain Allen's battery, a
a detachment pf infantry belonging to the
10th Kansas, consisting of details from
tbe.variou3 companies, amountinsf in all
to 63 men, with Lieutenants Milhourne
and. Stewart, under the command of
Capuin Matthft v Quiqrnr, companies D.
E and H, of the 9ih Kansas cavalry, also
about 200 mounted Indians of the tribes
of. Creaks, Cherokees ; and Seminojesrof
of the. 1st Indian regiment, commanded
by Lieut Col. WattlesK to be in readiness
at 9 o'clock p.' m. .
The unexpected arrival of Col. Wreer
prevented CoI..Jud?on from, taking com
mand of the exredition. He was ordered
to remain in camp.
Col. Wee r" marched with the command
detailed "by Colonel Judson at the time
specified i and crossed Grand "river at
Landnnn Ford at 4 a. m., next morning
after a. fatiguing: march. The adrance
guard, consisting of twelve men of corn
pany F. 6th Kansas Cavalry, under Cap
tain Scaurte, very soon came upon a
party of 25 or 30 rebels, at the premises
of Messrs. 13. M. Adair and John Davis,
Adair was. accideutly shot a few weeks
aero.
The guard immediately chargedi scat
tering. the enemy in all directions like
chafrbefare the wind, wounding one and
taking ten prisoners. The main body o
the Union forces coming up, . proceeded
immediately to the rebel ca.nn. . The en:
tire rebel outfit was in . a . very short tim?
either dispersed or taken. Our loss was
but three killed, one of thpm accidentally
by our own fire. One private oi the 9th
Kansas received four shots, and had his
head nearly cut off by a -sabre or" home
made knife.
We have taken 106 prisoners and! killed
several.; , We also took a large number
of horses and ponies; about 1-50 head of
cattle, 36 loaded mule teams, and a large
quantity of camp and garrison equips ore
also 500 stand of arms of all descriptions
-The rebel camp was situated upon the
summit of. a hill, in the midst of a thicket
The resistance wa3 feeble...
Colonel Clark'sori, Ex-Postmaster of
Leavenworth City, . surrendered to Geo
J. Clark, Division Quartermaster of the
Indian Expedition
The rebel defeat was complete. The
number ,of prisoners has since been in
creased to 120, who have leTt tbis after
noon; together with a large amount of
contraband property, for Fort Scott, in
charge of an escort of 50 men detailed
from company F, 6;h Kansas, and a num
ber of mounted Indians.'

Fort Scott, July 11. 1662.
'c ln my communication of :the' 6th inst.,
the only regiment spoken of s being the
chief and prominent actors in the recent
battle at Grand Saline, resulting in a
complete' victory to the government forces
of the Incian expedition, was tne ytn
"Kansas. This was based upon the .infer
matron obtained from the conversation of
the.messenger, and of ccurse not as full
in all respects as the facts warranted, and
might, if taken alone, do injustice to
ohers who participated. - -"The official re
rxrts to headquarters will no doubt do
ample justice to he flinerent companies,
and regiments, who took part in these two
engagements. '
Some interesting details reached me
this morning, from a reliableygentlera?n
now with the expedi:i3n. His letter is
dfted Camp Philips, ' eight mile3 below
South7 Spring river. Of course you know
where that is!
Col. Ritchie wiTfra-rarrcf hi Indian
rtgimerrt.rin ali500 men, had a fight with
a . greatly superior secesh'ferce under
Rains, no less than 1.4UU men. - Ine reb
els were beaten ani pat to flight. - At the
same time the Colonel captured a portion
cf their baggage train, and a Isrge am
ount of their cattle" and horses. These
are how en route to this post, and parties
curious in" the study cf" "natural history
will very soon have an opportunity to m-r
SDect hc-m free of cost. Taere are some
At the prt-ent. time C-l. Iliichio has
with him 300 Indians of his uwn regi
ment the 2d and one - company of tne.
6th Kansas cavalry; endsr command' cf
Lieut. Phillips.' They: have over 200
prison3r3 ccptured in. tattle. Among
them is a former citizen of Leavenworth,
Cel. Clarkscp, taken prisoner attHe bat
'tle at Grand Salin?. The Col. (Clark
son) has a body-guard cf. twenty-five loy
al Indians, whose especial duty it i3 to at
tend to his personal health, and see that
he does hot stray beyond the lines and
thereby get lost 1 '.
Col: Ritchie's Indian regiment is dcw
full. ' The entire compliment of men' have
been mustered into the ranks. The ap
plications continue as strong as. ever;
over 500 Indians have personally asked
to .be received into his command, since
the regiment has been rrvnde up.
My correspondent says of thi3 body pf
troops, every body who has seen them, is
agreeably, surprised. And their Colonel
speaks in glowing terms in regard to them
They make good soldiers, easily controll
ed, and they conduct and doport them
selves well, generally.' The Colonel is
constantly with them, devoting his entire
energies to accomplish what very few
persons thought possible, make good sol
diers out of the original material. He
has succeeded remarkably well.
Col. Ritchie has reliable information
that John Ross was about to join the ex
pediti6nwith 1500- men Under his com
mand ''about to come in with his war
riors," it the expression used.
In addition to the information contained
in the above letters, we learn by Mr.
North, who has just arrived from the
camp, that Col. Solomon, of the 9th Wis
consin, took forty prisoners. There were
about 400- Indians Cherokees and Osa-ges-T-'who
came, into cur camp.- They
were mounted and armed, and camein
with white flags, and carrying their gun3
with the muzzles-down; - "

. Just two years ago the National Dem
ocratic Convention, which had broken up
in a row at Charleston, and adjourned to
Baltimore, was -in session in the fast
name j city. Just ' two years ago to-day
the ; Committee on' Credentials' in that
body finished their report in which they
ueciuea adversely to the claims of the
Breckinridge, or disunion delegates from
Louisiana, and in favor of the- Douglas
delegation from that State, headed bv ihe
Hon. Pierre Soule. The individual last
named took his seat just at the moment
that the secession delegates were prepar
ing for the "bolt" from the Convention,
which was a part of the secession pro
gramme, and he made a speech on the
"situation" upon assuming the place
awarded him. The writer of this article
heard the speech, and he never before or
since listened with more pleasure to an
oratorical effort. Mr, Soule i$ a fine
speaker, anci he made one of his very best
orations upon the occasion referred to.
With. solemn earnestness he imn.ored the
Breckinridge faction to remain in their
places, and not break tip the Democratic
party ; he told them that secession from
the Convention meant disunion, and he
then portr tved, in strong language, the
consequences of an effort to break up the
Federal Union, Henry Ciay nver
pleaded more "powerfully for the Union
thanTierre Soule did upon that memor
able occasion, and the great statesman of
the West never drew a more vivid pic
ture of the consequences'of its disruption.
The fiercest of the fire-eater of the Con-
vention were ior a time snamea-ana
silenced by the wonderful eloquence and
the prophetic oratory ot tae aistinguiiaea
Louisianian. .' ,
The same rerort that gave a place in
thi Convention to Mr. Soule, excluded
from hi3 scat Benjamin F. Butler, a
Breckinridge' delegate from ,Massachu-
0 :ti .L .
setts. These two men now musiraie iae
prophetic character cf the great Union
Speech of . Mr." Soule. The latter fell
from grace ' and deserted, his vaunted
Union principles, ana ' he is now an in-
mate' of a IScrtnern prison, jueivjamin
F. Butler .was firm in his devotion to the
nion ar.d the Constkution, and he is now
a iMaior General in the army of the
United States, and d. elating laws, to tne
eonle of the home cf Pierre Soule.
