CAMP OF THE FIRST KANSAS,
TIPToN, Mo-, Nov. 6, ilS6l.(

Editors Missouri democrat
Last night band Of rebels, armed and
mounted, broke open aud plundered the store Of
a loyal citizen at Clarks Station, seven miles
east Of this post. They fed toward the South,
taking with them a large amount Of valuable
goods On receiving information of the rob.
berry, Col. Deitzler sent squad Of cavalry in
pursuit, under charge of Lieut.. Spicer. Toward
night ten Of the party returned, bringing three
prisoners, four horses, one mule, six guns, q
portion of the stolen goods, and some money
On emerging from piece of timber they came
upon the robber-gang, some ten miles out, at
house where they had halted. Four of the
rebels were caught trying to beat a retreat,
leaving the plumber scattered about the place.
The rest of the herd, numbering twelve or IF.
teen, scampered off with forty Of our party in
hot pursuit. One of the prisoners, persuaded by
the sight of a rope and some remarks from the
Lieutenant-the nature and force of which will
be readily conceived by those who know this
plucky oficer-made clean breast of it, giving
information of large portion of the booty
stored in the house of an accomplice eight miles
beyond, and consented to act as guide to the
place.
This evening the rest of the party came in
with five more of the robbers, their horses and
arms, four Government mules found in their
possession, and a large quantity of the plumber,
having travelled about fifty miles, and visited
many houses scattered over the country through
which they passed, in which nearly all the in
habitants are virulent secessionists They cap
tured all Of the gang engaged in the depreda-
ton of whom they got sight, except one, who
beng well mounted made his escape.
This achieve shows the advantage of
cavalry, of which, until within a few days,
we have been destitute, and therefore unable
to deal efficiently with the guerrilla bands
which infest this region, and indeed the whole
State The First Iowa Cavalry, from which the
scouting party to-day was detailed, is a crack
corps, made sp apparently Of picked men,
Their soldierly bearing. md the quite remarka-
BILE excellence of their horses, arms and accou-
trements, give assurance, as does this days
work, that whenever called they will show a
good account in their country's service.

DEPARTURE OF THE Iowa THIRD.-The Iowa
Third finally left this morning at 10 o'clock. on
the White Cloud, for St. Louis. On Hampshire
street near Fourth they made a halt and we're
briefly addressed by Col. Scott concerning their
gratitude to the ladies' and citizens Of Quincy
for the kindness shown them, to which the
boys responded with three rousing cheers.
At the levee, one of the men of Company A,
James Franks, was ''drummed out, that being
the sentence of the court martial, for having
assaulted and robbed one Of his comrades few
nights since. Half his head was shaved-that
IL, clipped very closely, his uniform was taken
away, and after being escorted along the line to
the tune of Rogue's March, he was set adrift in
We are rather sorry he should have been left
here-M Missouri would have been more congen-
ial place for such character. Let our police
keep good watch on him.
At half past ten o'clock the boys we're call
aboard, and as the boat swung gracefully out
into the stream, they gave three r0using cheers,
which we're heartily returned by our citizens,
several hundred OF whom had congregated to
witness their departure. 1t was their intention
to offer series Of resolutions expressive of the
feelings of the regiment for favors shown them
during their stay, but were compelled to defer
them in consequence Of their hurried departure.
We were, however, Informed that they will be
forthcoming soon.
They leave with the general good opinion Of
our citizens, and certainly with their good wish
es. Their improprieties since stopping here
have been very few, and they leave an honorable
name behind "Black sheep" will creep into all
organizations, and the Iowa Third is not TO be
censured for having . few. May victory and
glory attend the boys wherever they go.

The Davenport Gazette has an account of
the Battle of Belmont, furnished by Lieut.. J. F.
Warner, from which We make the following ex.
tracts:
The severest engagement was with the Iowa
7tb, Col Lauman, and the Illinois 22d, Colonel
Dougherty. They commenced the combat, and
were the only regiments actually within the
camp. The Iowa boys were the first to gain the
object of the contest, and to them belongs the
glory OF having fred the tents and camp equip
age OF the rebels and Of having seized their can
non, which they hauled some distan e, and for
want of horses were compelled to deliver them
to Taylor's Battery. Lieut.. Sample of Co. K,
took with his own hands the camp flag of the
rebels and guarding it from the eager soldiery
brought it away trophy from the field Indi-
vidual instances Of the most daring bravery &C.
Cured. One soldier, bearing the stars and
stripes, rushed far ahead of our line into the
| very midst of the enemy and waving our flag
over the foe melted the Iowa boys to redoubled
deeds Of daring.

ult., says:
"His Majesty Bsdahung, King Of Da.
honey, is about to make the "Grand
Custom" in honor Of the late King Gezo.
Determined to surpass all forms. mon
archs in the magnitude Of :he ceremonies
to be performed on the occasion. Bads-
hung has made the most extensive pre-
paratioas for the celebration Of the Grand
Custom. A great pit has been dug which
is to contain human blood enough to
float a canoe. Two thousand persons
will be sacrificed on this occasion. The
expedition to Abeakouta is postponed,
bu! the King has sent his army to make
some excursions at the expense of some
weaker tribes, and has succeeded in cap.
turing many unfortunate creatures. The
young people among these prisoners will
be sold into slavery, and the old persons
will be killed at the Grand Custom"

WAsuINGToN, January 25.-Ex'Presi
dent Tyler has presented the Virginia res.
olulions to MIR. buchanan, with an expla.
nation that Virginia, if she considered her
own individual feelings alone, could be
easily satisfied in the matter of compro.

Cotton States. The only basis of settle
ment to which she could give her assent
must be such as would also satisfy the
Cotton States, and restore the Urion
intact.
This is considered here as settling the
question in favor of the secession Of every
slave State. Mr.. Tyler telegraphed Judge

the fact that she bad lefL her husband in

indicated his death. When she went
down to breakfast in the morning, a gen.

insisted that her husband mus. be dead,
and that she must return to Honolulu by

not take place on ihe day when she saw

To MAKE Cow GIVE down HER
MILK.-A subscriber complains that he
has fine COW, which has twelve quarts
of milk to spare q, each milking, yet she
will not let him have any until her calf
has bad his supply. He wants to know
the reason Of this. He strongly suspects
there is something in his locks, bis hat,
dress, or moral habits, or his way Of
milking which has to set hi. damb beast
against him. He is in great tri5ulstion.
Fie, fie, sir just try milking her one teat
at time, as the calf does, and see il that
won't make hes give down. We have
known this to answer the purpose many
time. II that won't do, along with it
try the practice Of giving her some favor
it's food just to divert her attention when
you begin to milk.-American Agricul.
