IMPORTANT FROM MISSOURI
81. LOUIS, May 10.
The report in the city Saturday and yesterday
that General Harvey disapproYed of the action
of Capt. Lyon, I'm reference to the capture Of
Capt. Jackson, is authOritatiYely denied this
morning. He not only approves of the whole
proceeding but compliments that officer for the
prompt and admirable manner in which he exc
cuted the orders of the Government.
kclidUTU fnfosnaaeian from IoHor1ou CiEy aays
that nearly all the Objectionable features Of the
military bill which has been debated during the
secret session have been materially amended, but
when the news Of the capture of Camp Jackson
reached the city the amendments were imme-
diAteiy recsnsidered, and the original bill passed
both Houses by large majorities. No secession
ordinance has been brought before either House,
nor was such an act contemplated.
The Legislature passed and the Governor sign
ed q bill providing 3 military fund 10 arm the
State. This fund viii include the receipts from
the assessments for the years of 1850 and 1861
and after the regular expenses of the Govern
ment have been paid, the war loan from Banks
or individuals, a special tax Of fifteen cents on
the hundred dollars, and q million dollars worth
Of bonds will be to.
Abill also authorizes the Governor TO estab-
hsh an armOry in the Penitentiary for the manu-
facture of arms and munitions of war.
