Fremont Preparing to Strike

JEFFERSON CRY, Oct. IA boiler of
a locomotive standing on the Pacific
railroad track at Upton, exploded yester-
day morning, scattering some of the
fragments to the distance OF a quarter of
a mile. The engineer and fireman were
standing on the box, and two or three
regiments of troops we're near, but no.
body was hurt.
Mrs Fremont arrived here this after
noon, and was received at the depot by
the General and staff, and detachment
of sixty of his body guard. and escorted
to the camp.
General Fremont receives visitors
daily, who desire him to send regi-
ment to this place and that in the interi-

property; but he is obliged to disappoipt
an such applications, as he will send ont

going to strike altogether this time
When Price and the main body of the
rebel army is annihilated, he will then
see to the protection of every Union man
in the State.

The Lexington Surrender.

The Chicago Tribune has it from q
lady, who was in Lexington during The
entire, seige, that the. accounts, siu mary
particulars, as given 10 the Tribuae and
other papers ~ retaining soldiers, are
gross exa gerstions. One of these state
ments that the american Gag, on
tha. surrender. was hauled dwn and
tramPled sn -stle- dust, AuOthss sof a
wAole-eempsn having been Blown up
by mine. The Tribune's lady says:
''Upon the surrender of the city the
American flags were hauled down, but
not -trampled in the dust, as some ver-
sions have it. They were rolled up and
packed away by Price himself. The
story of the butchering of an entire cav
slry company, the firing of mines and
fierce bayonet charges, are mere, inyen-
lions. .IIEIX aEf5V
