A BASE LIE REFUTED.-The following is
from the Washington Star, the Lincoln organ {:
Dr. Sternbsrg, assistant surgeon United
States army, who after the battle at Bull Run,
Con Sunday, the 21st instantly remained be-
bind to attend to our wounded reached this
city last evening. On becoming prisoner to
Beauregard, he gave his parole not to attempt
to escape for four days, and with the rest Of
the Union surgeons and their assistants made
prisoners at the same time, was permitted to
devote his attentions wholly to our wounded
until his escape. He says that olr wounded
were treated by the disuhionisss in all respects
az well as they treated their own, except that
in bringing them in from the FIELD they brought
their own in first, and in that way all Of ours
were not gotten in until some time on the
Tuesday following the battle.

A Spicy REToRT TO Nh. CLAY. = Cores
Liverpool Commercial .ddDsrtiser has spicy
editorial in reply to Casgius N. Clay's letter
TO the London Times upon the subject of Amer
icsn affairs. It concludes as follows:
Great Britain is the best cOnservatOr of her
own honor, the best judge Of her own interest,
and that as she now right loyalty salutes the
stars and stripes, so she reserves the right to
salute the palmetto, should the children Of the
South sreceed in retaining the independent po-
sjtion which they have assumed, in forming
themselves ia g new Union OF CoRfederste
states. We have to deal not only with the po-
ltical, but with the commercial bearing Of the
Quarrel and were not certain line Of policy
forced upon Us by our honor in opposition to
s,ur interest, in tie mere commercial sense Of
the word, we would Immediately dispatch a
feet which would ehectuaiiy open to our CON-
rnercial navy every hsrbor OF tue South.

tract of a private letter, dated LOWELL
Mass Tuesday, Jan. o.
1t may interest you to know that the
present disturbed state of public affairs has
as yet no perceptible influence on the bust
ness of this city. All the mills are running
full time-not spindle stopped. Wages
are the same, and no more suffering than is
incident to this Indictment season and the
evil habits of men. Nothing here indicates
that we are topping over the precipice
disunion.

GOVERNORS HoUsE-Gov. Morton and
his family have taken possession of the Ex-
ecutive Mansion, and will reside there
henceforth, unless the low, damp, and IN
healthy character of its location and struc-
ture should compel them to vacate it. The
truth is, the Governors house, though an
excellent one when built, twenty years ago,
is now dlapidated and inconvenient. It
needs thorough repairing to be in fit con-
dition for occupancy, and the Legislature
ought to order such repairs speedily.--Lnd s

A Victory, OR A DEEEATt-The action in
Missouri is proclaimed by Some as "a victory.
"a splendid victory" by Others as "a deieat."--
1t seems to possess The elements Pf both. A
great struggle of Eve Thousand men, With TWEEN
ty-three thousand, in which the valor and
strength of the inferior force Overbalanoed the
fearful odds and compelled the larger army to
abandon their camp ground with heavy loss,
may Iegitimately, perhaps, be regarded as vic
tory. But a victory, which costs snch man
and such general as Lyon, and is followed by
a retreat, and then q second retreat, belongs
decidedly to that class Of which renowned
general said that 90 few more such victories
would ruin him."
We cannot help asking ourselves, Why these
fearful ODDS against the loyal forces? Where
we're the impatient legions Of the great loyal
States in the West, that the battle, now ex-
pected for weeks in Missouri, and known to be
Of incalculable importance to the general re-
suit, should have been lefl 10 q decision by ar
mics so uequally matched as Eve thousand a.
ROinst twenty.three thousandG Is the war for
the life Of this great nation 20 degenerate into
a mere display Of desperate valor or attempts
at impossible achievements! Why should the
heroic Lyon have been compelled to throw q,
way his precious life in the hopeless attempt to
make Ave thousand men q match for twenty
three thouaandS Every engagement thus iAr
has proved that the loyal forces are too much in
open and fair warfare, for an equal or even
much superior force Of the rebels. But every
engagement has also betrayed the lack Of SUN.
