sG~1he following is Col. Wsllace's az
count of the zouave skirmish. This dis
patch is to Gen'l Scott, and dated Cumber-
land, 9th:
A portion of the 18th Regiment return
ing from Frankfort, near Romney, to see if
any rebels were there, overlook forty horse
men, and attacked them, routing and driv-
ing them over mile, killing eight and SCI
curing seventeen horses. After an hours
rest the enemy, reinforced, suddenly attack
ed us, obliging US to abandon the horses
and retreat to a small island at the mouth
of Patterson's creek, where we killed TWEEN
ty-three of the enemy. We were finally
driven of, each one looking out for himself
We are now safe in camp.
Corporal Hayes, of Company A, was
wounded; Jno. c. HoIlingbrook was taken
prisoner and murdered.
Two rebel officers were killed.
The fight was very desperate, and the
above account unexagerated.
We have intelligence that four rebel regi-
ments are at Romney.

A Card.

My attention has been called to the fol-
lowing advertisement that made its appear
ance in the Journal, of the 4th of june
+" Read & Lawrence have advertised to pay
the debts of Read & Burrow, but not the
debts of Aaron Burrow that he has taken
particular pains to have charged to Read l.

know of no other foundation for such a
statement as this-which was very cautious
ly kept back until l had left the city, and,
as Mr.. Lawrence informs me, was made not
only without any authority from him, but
without his knowledge-than that some
small bill or bills made by myself or on my
account, while / was in business in Evans
vile, and which, likely enough, was charg-
ed to Read & Burrow (per Aron Burrow),
may have been presented to Read l. Lawrence
for settlement-or as an Offset for an ae-
count by Read & Burrow sgzinst the par
ties holding said bill or bills.
If such thing happened-and it is not
at all strange that it should, particularly as
was absent from the city great portion
of the time after the sale--it was without
any authority from me, and the assertion
that l took particular pains to have
my private debts charged to Read Il
Burrow, or that l ever sought in any way
to make Read l. Lawrence responsible for
one dollar of the same, is d mean and ma
lieious falsehood.
Iregret that circumstances compel me to
take any notice of the statements of man
in whose hands not even private CORES
pondence is sacred, but in justice to myself,
l feel that / cannot say less than have
done.
Hoping to be relieved from any further
communication, either public or private,
with the gentleman referred to, hand him
over to the contempt of all right-minded
people, who being acquainted with, cannot
fail to appreciate the motives which, have
governed, his conduct.

DHon. Geo. W. Julian writes the fol.
lowing concerning Col Sol. Meredith's ap-
pointment:
The facts of the case are these: The
strangeness of the story of Col. Meredith's ap-
pointment, led some gentlemen here to visit
the President and the War Departmental the
purpose offnding out the exact truth. They
obtained copies of the directions of the Pres
ident and the call of the Secretary of War
relative to the six Indiana regiments order
ec last week, which showed that two ofihe
regiments were to be commanded by Coils.
Brown and Mcmillan, and the Colonies of the
other four were to be appointed ia the same
manner as the Colonies of former regiments
had been. COL Meredith's name was not
used, and the President stated explicitly
that he had received no appointment.

judging from what was found on his premi-
SEES:
A large quantity of arms and ammuni-
ton has been found secreted in the cellar, in

ces.
A case of valuable pistols, over eight
hundred rifles, twenty-five of which were
Minnie, were found. Several of them are
supposed to have belonged to the Massachu-
sets soldiers who were disarmed by the
mob on the 10th of April.
It is estimated that one hundred thous-

cartridges and six hundred long Minnie
ball cartridges, with numerous other warlike
articles, including balls, and steam-gun
was found. The search is still progress
