Missouri.

Our news from Missouri is very vague. The
certainty would seem to be that there have
been battles between the Confederate and Con-
solidate forces, aad the probability is that our
side has gained important advantages. 4
Northern dispatch before US has, q despatch
headed GLORIOUS victory and brilliant retreat
Of Gen. Lyon" The GLORIOUS victory" was
probably a bad whipping, and the brilliant
~retrea!" somewhat like the Ball Run races
The details OF the despatch referred to are SO
confused and absurd that we decline giving
place to It. We have con6d,nce in the capa-
city OF cur generals and the courage of their
men, AID W sre,ss sure that the enemy who
control the telegraph, will not tell the truth
tina. We calculate With certainty that our side
will win thc victories and their side will claim
them.

$500 tho teamstels and civilians. General
W.naseu scouts tho idea OF the march to the
ha,,le field being calculated to exhaust the
stroneth of the regiments that were brought
into action; and states further, that, instead OF
beine led against the enemy without partaklng
of food, the troops were furnished with three
days' rations. We shall get ut the truth after
awhile. The number of killed is set down in
the report at 10 officers and 462 rank and tile;
but this must have been mere guess work, as
it was left to the Confcderates to bury the
dead. The number Of wounded is stated at
g. officers and 947 rank and file. This'may
possibly be correct, as far IS relates to those
that were brought.fr from the field; but the estl'
mate certainly cannot embrace the very large
number of wounded in the hands Of the Cen
federates.
General Mcdowell does not even venture to
surmise as to the number OF missing. lie
leaves it wholly to conjecture. He simply
says, that some Of those who were reported
missing have returned sincc-that some have
strayed away into other regiments, which is,
Of itself, asingular admission-and that many
of the Zouaves, who were supposed to have
been taken prisoners, haco been heard Of in
Neu York-which is a delicate way OF acknow-
lodging that they had deserted and gone home:
ANY one who reads carefully the report. will
rise from its perusal with an impression
amounting almost to a conviction that, SO far
as the list of casualties is concerned 1t betrays
q studied attempt at coacealment. The Est

aggregate loss of the three divisions-compos.

took part in the fight. No one, therefore, OUT Inc
most credulous ofreaders, will accept the Official
report as worthy oil entire credence, or will
venture TO quote it, in the face Of tho well
established facts by which some OF lt; most
important statements are controVerted.

Death Of Alexander Parkins.

We regret to learn, through the Winchester
'R.publican," that Alexander. Parkins, Esq,
for several years past we'll known as the editor
Of thu Clarke journal" died on the 9th inst,
from o wound received in the battle of Ma
nasSas, OF the 2lst July.
Mr.. PA,kins was q gentleman Of exemplary
character, and : writer Of more than ordinary
vigcr and ability. As IN editor he was frank,
independent and fearless, always speaking
out his honest sentiments without fear, favor
or fiction. Ee said in truth that he would
not FILTER Neptune for his trident, nor JoTe for
his 1hwer to thunder" In writing for his
paper his rule vas to enunciate such doctrines
as he believed to be right rather than those
that he thought would be popular. The read.
ers Of the Clarke journal will bear testimo-
ny to tho consistency with which he adhered
to that rule.
Through tho whole Of his editorial career,
Mr.. Parkins had been the ardent friend OF the
rights Of the South; and having become fully
Convinced that she could not hope to obtain
her rights In tQe teQeTal Ouiou, nc was JUG
* 'he earliest OF the Virginin champions OF
secession. He maintained that the Southern
States had the right to secede. and that they
were in duty and honor bound to do so, after
the events OF 1860. After the declaration Of
war by the Lincoln proclamation, MIR. Parklns
announced mis- readiness to test his faith by bis
works-he was ready to peril his life in the
cause Of the independence Of his own native
land; aud, accordingly, he volunteered as q
private in Captain Nelson's Company, Qrom
Clarke,) and bravcly marched forth to battle
and to death for the rights Of Virginia and Of
the Confederate States.
Mr.. Parkins received a ball through the
elbow, producirga wound which at the time
was regarded CT such a nature as to render
amputat:oa necessary. Hoping; however, that
the arm might be saved, the operation was de-
layed, aad the loss of his life is the consequence.
He dioa st Cu!peper Court House on tho 9th
inst.

Alabama Election.

The election Of Governor and members OF
the State Legislature took place on Monday
last. The returns are as yet very incomplete
and unsatisfactory. For Governor, Col. I. Il.
Watts is considerably ahead of Judge Shorter
ia the counties reportod in South Alabama,
and his election is announced with confluence
in the Savannah Republican" The Memphis
papers, or the other hand, upon the strength
Of returns received in that city, express the
opinion that the gubernatorial mantle has
fallen upon Shorter.

The bribe which the Lincoln government
has offered to the necessities Of the poor at the
North, in tho form Of increased pay to the
soldiers, has had some little effect in rcviving
the work Of recruiting; but still it is a very
slow, dragging business. The Northern poo.
pie arc losing their stomach for this fight"

p-c,ent Position ofCertaIn Northern "Con'
servattvcs" illustrated.


The position of Richardson, Of Illinois, and
his present friends is we'll illustrated in the
storT Of Jonathan Greenleaf, with which some
of our readers may be familiar. Greenlea',
like all other Yankee Puritans, looked beyond
his own country for a field Of labor, in whlcn
to perform gcod works. So, in carly mannooo'
he raised several hundred dollars Dy suo'
scribtion to enable him 70 60 to India as a ms
~sionary, to convert the natives OF that country
to the true plymouth Rock faith" Ihrouga
the assistance of the fanatics, fools and knaTes
OF his native place, he soon departed from the
shores OF America, and in due time reached
his far off destination in the East, Upon his
arrival there be became satisfied that he could
not~acconplish the object Of his visit, and there
fore declined to make it known to those whom
he had travelled thousands Of miles to save
from everlasting destruction.
The day after his arrival he proposed to the
authorities, for q valuable consideration in
money, some improvement, which his Yankee
ingenuity suggested, 10 the machinery Of the
J4qssrnau;, which proposition was accepted
aud eonsumnated by the parties-the Yankee
missionary returning in few weeks with sew.
eral thousand dollars moro than he took out
with him.
The application to Col. Richardson and his
friends is obvious to every reader. They
promised the South to protect her rights and
crush gu. her abolition enemy upon condition
that she would place the reins of government
in their hands. The South declined the prefer
Of Col. Richardson and his friends, and now
they off,. to cooperate with the abolition
enemy for the %subjugstiou of the South, upon
condition that they have q liberal share OF the
spells Of tie Yankee Government.

IMPORTANT FROM WHEELING THE VIRGINIA cen
vEHrloS-So Division OF THE STATE YET.
WHEELiSe, Va, Aug. THE State Con.
v~ention re assembled Yesterday and was in ses-
sion again to day. The first thing done was
to raise 4 committee on the division Of the
State. consisting Of thirty-one members, being
one from each county represented in the Con-
vention.
A resolution was offered to-day, declaring
that, inasmuch as the Legislature had refused
its consent to n division Of the State, it was
unwise at present to take action for that pur-
pose, ard also proposing 10 adjourn the Con.
vcntion on Friday. The resolution vas tabled
by a vote Of SO against 25.
Resolutions were offered and referred. pro.
posing to take a vote on the question Of diYi-
sion Of The State in the counties lying West of
4 line running from the North east corner Of
Tennessee, along the top Of the Alleghanies,
to Maryland, the election to be held sometime
in October; and if the vote should be in favor
CT a division, the Legislature Shall call a Con-
vention to complete the work. p
There will DC O warm contest for action to-
wards q division. There is . strong opposition
to it, but the divisionists have probably q ma
jority, and are determined to push the matter.
We fhd the following in the Baltimore
Sun"
Walter Norris. son Of Ih" late ex-senator
Norris, of New Hampshire, vas killed at Bull
Run. He was a member of the Beaureeard
Rifles, and for many years = clerk in the Post.
