line enemy could not have lost less than
thirty Of their best mon-and may have lost
many more-there was q large party Of them
during the whole engagement employed,
Exclusively, IN carrying off the dead and
wounded. Issw eight or ten shot that must
have died Immediately, but beirg tied upon
their horses, and the horse unininred, they
dragged them off; one however, whose
horse was struck with FIVE balls, and him
self with two. was left upon the field, aftel
a desperate effort BY his friends. within six
Ity yards of our line to get him off, they sue
ceeded in crossing his legs at the ankles,
and tied them securely together with a tug,
and was preparing to drag him of, when
the balls from the guns of our sharp shoot
ers caused them to fly and leave him. He
was apparently about fifty years Of age, Of
stern countensnce, and features altogether
intellectual. He was wrapped in a rich
Spanish blanket, and judged to have been
a chief.
We lost on our side, in killed none; wound
led, Lieut.. Eldridge, of "B." Company,
slightly in the hand, with an arrow; Ser
lgeant Gibson of ga" Company, slightly in
the head with an arrow. We have several
horses wounded, some with arrows and
some with balls.
The officers and men, generally, during
the engagement, behaved with as much
GOODNESS and bravery as any troops could
some were ever foremost in the fight; but all
did so we'll that I cannot find it in my heart
Ito make distinctions. .
We e~ncamped on the battlefield, and
passed the night. Next morning nothing
could be seen or heard Of the enemy, and
We took the line of march for Mulberry
Greek, which we reached late on the even
ing of the llth almost famished for water.
Some of the men could hardly speak from
thirst and exhaustion; after an hours hunt
we found some water nthe bed of the creek,
and encamped for the night. Next MORN
ing, af,er satisfying myself that there was
no enemy on thiscrrek, we broke up camp
and returned to general rendezvous, near
Mann's Fort, as desired in order of 9TH Ju-
ly, lS48.
As nearly as I can judge, the Indians
there encountered form the main village Of
the Camanches, from which parties of var
riors 90 to attack travellers upon the Santa
Fe road. Their present location must be
upon the Cimeron, at some point not far
and opposite to the mouth of Walnut

which we fought them on the 9Th, must be
near and opposite to he mouth of Coon
Greek, due South.

WIG CONSISTENCY.

The Wings d~isgracefully abandoned al
their cherished leaders and principles On
Nominated Gen. Taylor, because he wa
supposed to be available.
The Wings have denounced the wal a
unjust, unconstitutional and criminal, ant
all those who aided in sustaining it as par
ticipaters in the great crime ; and yet the,
are supporting for President a man who i
the hero of this same wicked war, and VIII
received his nomination solely on that &C
count.
The Wings have accused Mr.. Polk of tn.
greatest wickedness or folly in ordering the
march to the Rio Grsnde ; and yet they are
supporting for President the very man who
advised that movement, and carried the wal
into the enemies country.
The Wings were bitterly opposed to the
acquisition of any Mexican territory; and
and yet they are supporting for President
the man who recommended the taking, by
force, seren States from Mexico-which is
far more than We have obtained By an hon.
orable treaty!
The Wings preferred "war. pestilence
and famine" to the election Of Gen. Jack
son, because he had been twenty years be-
fore a military chieftain; and now they are
supporting for President a man who is still
a General in the army-where he has been
for the last forty odd years, and who was
nominated because he had won glory and
as a successful military leader, and
for no other reason.
The Wings abused Mr.. Van Buren,, in
1910, because, during his administration
the War Department permitted to be used,
the Cuba blood hounds, to hunt the Semin-
ole Indians; and yet they are supporting
for President the very man who recommend
ed their use.
The Wings, in nominating and support
ing Gen. Taylor for President, acknowledge
to have been hypocritical in all
their past political actions, or to be so now.
If they were sincere in their former course|
and have not been convinced Of their error,
were morally bound to nominate a fair
exponent of their biews, and let the people,
pass their verdict upon them. If they la
Dor for principles, and not men, lie. the
why do they abandon their %princi-|
pies for the sake of the man, i. e. the fshes?|
They were not bound to nominate Clay III
was personally unavailable, but they|
we're morally bound to nominate an expo
nent Of their views.
Gen. Taylor declares himself in favor of
no political measure advocated by the wings
and opposed BY the democrats-not one.
Is he then an exponent of their views? dol
they believe their former principles were|
OF is their apparent conversion hol-
and insincere? There is no escape, theyI
nave no faith in their former professions, or
ire hyPocritically running after new and
Gods now. /
Their inconsistency is as d~isgracefnl ss
t is publicly apparent.

The table is worth preserving. 1t shows
that the whole wing party in all the North
them and Western States did not furnish
one single vote to defeat the migrating of
the anti-slavery restriction upon the treaty
the northern democrats furnished
twelve votes against the restriction, aud
Of Lewis Cass among them-which is
three votes more than the wings of the
whole South could raise for their own de-.
fence and that the Southern dsserters to the
enemy nearely equal IN number the whole
force Of the democrats arraysd on that
side.

Fearful Explosion and Loss OF Life
About 70 Lives Lost and ID Persons

Scaldeds
1t is our painful duty to record the explo'
sion of the Aues of one of the boilers Of the
Edward Bates, on Saturday last, 4 O'Clock
A. NJ, on her passage from St. Louis tc
Keokuk. The explosion, as We learn from
a passenger, occurred nearly opposite Ham.
burg, 25 or 30 miles below here, while the
boat was passing over shoal water. The
engineers were badly scalded, and protest
that there was sufficient water in the boil
ers. The number that was lost has not been
fully ascertained, but was supposed to
amount to twenty--all deck passengers and
hands. Forty were known to be scalded,
thirty odd severely, some Of whom have
since died.
Our informant, who was an eye witness,
says the distress and misery could be seen
but not described. One united shrek for
help, help! seemed to raise from every
mouth in and around the boat. A veteran
present, remarked, he had witness
ed the misery incident to many hard fought
battles, but never before saw suffering an
guish to compare TO that scene.
1t is proper to state here, that every sf-
fort was made by the officers, the cabin
passengers, and the kind citizens Of Ham
burg, to rescue the drowning and to allsy
the pain Of the suffering. For full particu-
lars we wait for the list made out by the
of the boat. The Bates, it is be-
was fully insured.

The st. Louis Republican is a very smart
paper. II has discovered that the nomina-
ton of Martin Van Buren, by the Wing Buff
falo Convention will prove "the death blow
to all the hopes Of Mr.. Cass for the Presi-
dency." If Wing support of Mr.. Van Blu
rem is to annihilats the prospects of the
Democratic nominee, what, We would ask,
is to become Of the Wing nominee? He
can scarcely be reconed in the range of
chances.

one of the Mo. delegates in tie Philadel.

OH the 29th inst, in which he denounced
the Taylor humbug and declared his inten.
ton to support Cass and Butler. Col. Rus.
sell was a warm supporter Of Mr.. Clay in
the Philadelphia convention.
AS a matter of courtesy Henderson voted
for Penix. Nevertheless Mr.. Penix did
not extend the same courtesy, though he
knew of Mr.. Henderson's intention to vote
for him, as they had both said to each 9th
Ell, at NOix Creek. that they expected to
have to vote for men of different political
sentiments at this election. But perhaps
the race was too close for Mr.. Penix. Let
it be as it may we should deal gently with
