From Missouri.

Washington, Sept 20. Gen. Fremont tele,
graphs to the headquarters OF the army datea
Yesterday that Major Devette of the lst md
regiment of cavalry who was sent on recon
noisance towards Gen. tlardy's position at
Greenyile met the enemys pickets and drove
them in killing two and taking three prisoners /;
they also captured GO muskets and ~ horses
St. Louis, Sept 20. The following additional
particulars in reference to the affairs at LeXing-
ton, have been ascertained -,
The first attack upon the Notifications IS SAID
to have been on Thursday morning of lest week,
but this is certainly o mistake as Gen. Price ana
not leave Warrensburgb 40 miles south OF Lex
ington, until Wednesday night. The attack
was probably made on Monday, with 5000 men.
The engagement lasted hours, when the rebels
were repulsed with the loss Of 100 killed and
between 200 and 500 wounded. Our loss is re-
ported at 5 killed and several wounded.
The notifications are situated in the edge OF
the town, on bluff overlooking the river. The
works are earth, feet high and II feet thick,
with ditch Of 6 feet deep and II broad, sur
rounding them. Another and circular work is
erected inside, defended bya ditch. The whole
is capable of holding 900 troops.
The attack on Wednesday was determined
and lasted nearly all day. The reinforcements
from the north under Gen. Sturgis probably
number 5000 but should they be unable to cross
the river, which is quite likely, the only aid
they can render, will be to sweep with their az
tillery the points occupied by the rebels.
1t is confidently hoped, however that the 1000
troops that left Jefferson City on Wednesday by
steamers will be able to land at or near Lexing.
ton and cut their way through the enemys for
ces and join Col. Mulligan. 1t was said that
Col. Mulligan expressed his confidence Of being
able to hold his position against any force not
greater than ten times his own.

instantly as it should, but after hurrying to and
fro, running express trains on Sunday, and In
terceding for weeks time to get clean Shirt
and new coat, a knapsack and gun for the
man, all of which the least prudent foresight
would have had ready and waiting for the sum-
mons. The Journal prefers the Governors way,
because ii is cheaper; we prefer little more
promptness even at the hazard of ten per cent
additional tax. That's the long and the short
Of the difference between us. If the Editor of
the Journal should not BIO called from home, that
paper will doubtless keep along in the way it
has chosen, We regret that it should have
chosen such a money-serving policy--but hay
ing done what we can to revive its tagging pat
rio,ism, we must leave il 70 its fate. Another
extra session of Congress might temporarily re-
leve the reputation Of the paper, but we are
afraid CAPT. WALTON is beyond hope.
