TIE GREAT SECRET 1T Ia admitted by ali
physicians that the grand secret of health and
long lie lies In keeping the blood and various
huda OF the body in q high degree of fluidty.
When you feel continued pain in the head or
bowels, or any continued uneasiness in any sr-
gan or other parts of the body, you can prevent
serious sickness by taking BaANDR TH's PILLS.
Bleeding may give momentary ease, because
the blood left will have more room. But as the
body Is made from the blood and sustained by
the blood, to waste our blood is to waste our
lie, and ruin our constitution. But Brandretb' a
Fills relieve the circulation as readily as bleed.

Euyther Particulars of the Affair at
BOOnviile, Missouri.

a5 Sr LOUIS, June l9.
A special dispatch to the Republican gives
further particulars of the battle at Boonyille.
The federal troops landed FIVE miles below the
encampment Of the State forces. The latter
had battery near Boonville, pointed toward
the river, but II was circumvented by the Fed.
erals and proved useless.
Gen. Lyon Immediately advanced on the
State troops and was met in q lane, when the
firing commenced. The balance of the de.
scription is substantially the same as reported
last night. Gov. Jackson was about mile off,
surrounded by Capt. Kelly's company, as a body '
guard. 1t isreported that he was severely rep.
rimanded during the engagement by his own
party, for cowardice and lack of discretion.-
Col. Parsons was not in the fight, having pre-.
viously been reported sick.
Boonville not injured, no shots having been
fred into Il.
General Price's absence thus accounted for.
Sunday morning the pickets brought the report
OF seven steamboats, coming up the river with
federal troops; consultation was Immediately
had between the Governor and General Price.
The Governor ordered the State troops to dis
band, not being able to sustain themselves
against such force. Price then went home.
The troops, however, were determined to
have fight. Col. Marmaduke then became
disafected and resigned A few hours later,
the report about the steamboats, proved untrue,
and the Governor ordered the troops to prepare
for resistance, appointing Mr.. Little to COM
mand.
There are no authentic accounts as to the
number killed, wounded, or taken prisoner.
II is stated that Gen. Lyon knew the State
troops position, and could have killed them In
large numbers, but he ordered the firing to
cease, and proceeded to make prisoners.
1t is said that State troops are gathering in
the counties west Of here, and another stand
will be made in Jackson county.

Mr.. West, of Wezel, offered an amendment
that no one who voted for secession be allowed
to hold office In the State during the wsr. It

Mr.. Martin, who, among other statements,
said the secessionists in his county were In the
habit of taking the oath of allegiance and after.
wards repudiating it. He had no confidence in
their oath. Men had to learn to disregard an
oath to be good secessionists:
The amendment was lost-ayes 10, nays 66.
The ordinance finally passed-ayes 73, nays 8.
The ordinance provides for the entire re-
organization Of the State Government. Every
officer is to be obliged to swear allegiance anew
