THE BATTLE or LEXINGTON

Gen. Price, who commanded in the
recent battle of Lexington, (Mo,) has
made an official report of the affair, which
is very clear statement. We extract
the following concluding paragraphs
from it,
After two o'clock in the afternoon of
the 10th, and after ffty.two hours of
continuous firing, white flag was dis
played by the enemy on that part of the
works, nearest to Col. Green's position,
and shortly after another was displayed
opposite to Col Rives. Immediately
ordered cessation Of all firing on our
plrt and sent forward one Of ny staff
otli .o,s TO ascertain the object Of the flag
and toopeu negotiations with the enemy,
5,ucb should be thiir desire 1t was
tioaIly, after some delay, agreed by Col
Marshall aud the officers associated with
him for that purpose by Col. Malligan,
that the United States forces should lay
down their arms and surrender them,
selves as prisoners Of war to this army.
These terms having been made known
to, were ratified by me, and Immediately
carried into effect,
Our entire loss in this series of en-.
gagcments amounts to twenty five killed
and seyeuty-two wounded The enemy's
loss was much greater
The visible fruits of this 9llnost blood.
less victory are great-about $500
prisoners, and among them are Coils.
Marshall, Psabody, White,
Goyes Major Van Horn and ll8 other
officers, Ave pieces of ar
tillery and two morlars, over 1000 stand
of infantry arms, large number of
sabres, about $50 horses, n any sets Of
cavalry equipments, wagons, teams,
ammunition, more than 500 600 worth
of fcommissary stores end large amount
of other property. In addition to all
this, / obtained the restoration of the
great seal of the State and public re-
cords, which had been stden from their
proper custodian and about 100000
in money, of which the bank at this
place had been robbed, and which ]
have caused 10 be- rstuned 10 il.
This victory has demonstrated the
fitness of our citizen soldiery for siege
as well as for a dashiug cho.ge They
lay for ffty.two hours in tie open air,
without tents or covering, regardless Of
the sun aud rain, and in he very pre-
senoe of a watchful and desperate foe,
manfully repelling every assault, and
patiently awaiting my orders to storm
the fortifcat0ns No Gen raj ever com.
manded braver or be ter army 1t
is composed Of the best olood and tue
bravest men of Missouri.
( Where nearly every cqe. officers and

your Excelloncy, (who was present with
the army during the period embraced III
this report,) it is impossible to make
special mention Of individuals without
seemingly making invidious distinctions

70 The New York Times Of the
3Oth ult., has the following:
The recruiting returns for the week
are most unsatisfactory, There has not
been such q lack Of business at any
period within the last five years. The
difficulty is to get men Of any kind.
The standard ofhaight has been lowered,
and tic next step will probably bo the
suspension of the Regulation prohibiting
the enlistment of married men. Ap.
parently, there was nothing done at
Boston or Pbilsdelphia, and no dotach'
meut arrived from those cities during
the week, nor yet from Rochester or

A Coon JoEE ON FBuMoNr.-A
gentleman who has returned to Arkansas
from a visit to St Louis communicates
to an Arkansas paper good joke on
Gen Fremont, who, it seems got up a
mounted and equipped body Of troops as
e special body guard their horses
we're superior, and their arms and ap.
pointments Of the finest description. lie
was proud of it. 1t was bis pet, But
one day this fine body went out to rer-
form suudry oyolatioDs about two miles
from the city, and they never came back,
They were last heard Of in Gen. Hat-
dee's camp, where they accidentally
found their way, If any beiy wants to
see Fremont maj, it IS only necessary
to mention body guard IN his presence.

pgrE.--From the New York World of
a late date, we extract the following;
1t Is high time an order came from
Washington diobanding the First Regi.
mout OF Fire zouaves. The corps is
utterly demoraliaed, and all efforts to
bring them together have so far proved
abortive 1t is lille to expect that re.
cruits Will throng to the ranks of this
unfortunate organization, and, as there
is only a few hundred of the original
regiment left, they should be either
drafted into the regular army, or allow
ed to join other organizations We pro.
test against tie spending Of any more
money in pay, rations and clothing for
these unruly and unreliable FIRE boys.
