twenty men who accompanied Col. Baker to the boat
belonged TO company C. OF these, eight men were
wounded, six with bayonets and two with balls On
the arrival of companies A and g, Capt. Roberts, OF
the former ordered his men 10 charge on board, and
led them far the steps. where he received
severe wound from bSyonet which entered near the
shoulder blade and passed through his back. The
boat so well defended that the lnoisans were
forced to retreat they having no cartridges with them
Ammunition was very soon, however, furnished them
and on approaching the boat again every thing be-
came quiet. None of the Illinois troops were killed.
and it was thought on the next mornlng that Colonel
Baker and Capt. Roberts would recover from their
wounds; in fact there was but little apprehension fell
for their safety. Two of the privates Of company G.
il was feared, were MORALLY wounded. The Commits
sary of the Illinois troops was also wounded, but
slightly so At the time COL Baker was shot be was
engaged in a personal conflict with the captain of
the Irish company, who is also among the wounded.
The rioters finally subdued, forced to surren-
der their arms, and placed under strong guard.

We are panied to learn that SAMUEL BEGeER. late
Governor of Indiana. died during tie last week, at
Fort Wayne, of congestive fever, after sickness of
but few DAYS. His prominent standing, and his
private and public virtues will Of call for a
somewhat extended notice hereafter from Of his
numerous friends. At present we will only say that
his whole public career, Legislator, Judge, and
Governor, was distinguished by uprghtness independ
ence. and ability; and that in all his private relations
he kind, generous and honest. Notwithstanding
the high state Of party feeling that prevailed during
the three years of his service Governor, believe
it may be said with TRUTH that he lad, without excep
ton, the personal esteem of both parties He had
been for many years member of the Presbyterian
Church, and while here, was a ruling Elder, and We
understand he died with the comfortable assurance
happy Immortality. His amiable eonsort and father
less children, have our warmest sympathy in then
melancholy reavement.-JoUrHdl.

Unwelcome NeyysI
We find the following unpleasant intellig
the New Orleans Delta of Sept. Z.
TIE less Of the TruxtOn.

We have lad cause to regret the conduct OF our
navy during the present war; but the recent loss OF
the Truxton, and her shameful abandonment, are
things which call up feelings of different nature
1t is no longer regret that is inspired-that must
yield to the blush Of shame for tie Republic, and
contempt for of those to whom its defence and
honor has been entrusted. We take for our facts the
correspondence Of "genteman attached to the
squadron" published in the extra Picayune yester-
day, and which will be found in another portion of
our paper. And what are these facts That CON-
Carpenter, of the Truxon, after capturing trading
vessel, whose master by the very act was probably
ruined and in whose breast the direst feelings OF re-
venge must have been engendered, "engaged the
Captain of this vessel to pilot him into safe ancho-
rage" The Captain, as might have been expected
from whose nation and himself had been injured,
paid off the score by running the vessel on rock.
Every American would have done the same thing
under the same circumstances, and MIR. Carpenter
had no right to expect more from the dcceitful and
unforgiving Mexican. Next he started boats crew
40 miles for assistance and it appears from the ac-
count that they had TO row the whole way. What
became of Z" the small trading vessel" which one
might suppose could have sailed we not informed
But the brig on the reef and while there, was
little damaged that she could send out other boats
and capture other vessels, which, unfortunately,
owing the violence of the gale could not reach the
Truxtonl When this tremendous gale began blow
ing cannot ascertain, nor how, during It's con-
tinuance boats could capture two vessels, yet
be unable TO make use Of them when captured
But at last the Princeton arrived at where the
Truxton was lying, and found not vessel so badly
damaged as TO be wreck; so far from II, she had
only been stripped of her - light articles +" by the
Mexicans, and not being able or willing TO get her
off had been obliged TO burn her, in order to prevent
her from falling into the hands of the enemy But
where were the officers and crew! Had they re-
NAMED to defend the vessel till tie last hope Of
saving her receiving assistance had expired
So fur from il, they had abandoned her and gone
ashore, where they were very Hospitality received
and treated by the Inhabitants" and finding enc
mics to arrest them, had started on foot TO Tampico
to give themselves up as prisoners Of war"
Verify, after this the "pet Of the national
defence" will have to do much to retrieve its charac-
ter. Well for us is it that we have no maritime
war, and that in order 10 be taken prisoners our
officers must wake journey of a hundred
miles on foot to secure for themselves the inestimabe
privilege. Were England France enemy, that
force, on which we 50 much relied, would be swept
from the of which it so proudly contested
the control.
In Gods name may this be the last Of ingloriou'
failures.

The Mormon War!

We find the following in the st. Louis Daily Union
of Sept. IA:
IsIPoRTANT FROM NAUvoo-A BATTLE The Ocean
Wave, which arrived yesterday morning from Keokuk,
brings intelligence that battle was fought on Friday
afternoon between the rioters of Hancock county and
the people of Nausoo. From all we gather, the
facts are about these A movement Of hostile cha
racier on the part of the Antics being perceyabe on
the morning of Friday, about three hundred of the
citizens Of Nauvoo marched out in the direction of
the Anti Mormon force, and took up position one
mile from the Temple on the La Harpe road. They
were commanded by Col. Benjamin Clifford, and had
Eve sxpound pieces Of artillery About three o'clock
in the afternoon the Antics made their appearance.
They numbered eight hundred men, and had also five
six-pounders. Col. Singleton having resigned two
days previously, they were led by Col. Brockman.
The firing Immediately commenced on both sides, the
two lines being formed within three hundred yards of
each other. The Antics used their artillery freely,
but the Nauvoo forces being well sheltered, and re-
solved to act only on the defensive, reserved their
artillery fire. The action lasted two hours, during
which time the firing was irregular, but almost nccs-
SAINT. AT length the Antics retired, and took up n
position beyond the enemy's shot, intending, as is
reported, TO renew the engagement the next morning.
The report Of killed is, the part of the Nauvoo
forces, and fifteen on that of the ASSISTANTS.
