st. Louis, Aug l3.-3 p. NJ.
Special Dispatch to the Chicago Times.
This morning special train arrived from Roll

Lyon.
He was bearer Of the news that battle took
place between the two armies, with immense
slaughter on both Sides
The Federal troops, under Gems. Lyon and Sigel
and Major Sturges, attacked the enemy in three
divisions, driving them with fearful loss from their
position.
Gen. Lyon fell in the of the action, and
the command devoved on Gen. Sigel, who, after
thoroughly repusing the enemy, made retro
grade movement in good order towards Rolla.
| This was done under the behalf that Hardee,
who some time ago entered Missouri ria Pocahou-
tas, in Arkansas, was near the battlefield with a
heavy force to cooperate with the rebels
Ben. McCuoch had the command of the Con-
federare forces in the battle, and Price, Rains and
Parsons commanded the Missouri secessionists.
Gen. Fremont has later dispatches from Frank
lin, saying that McCulloch Price and Rains were
killed in the engagement
| The utmost confidence i. entertained here that
Gen. Sigel will maintain himself until renfor-
ced.
| The enemy may advance as soon as Hardee
joins them.
| The military department. here is actively and
efficiently engaged in getting troops ready Tor an

FULTON DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION

We understand that the Democrats of Fulton
county had one Of the most spirited and enthusi-
astc meetings last Saturday, ever held in this part
of the State. The attendance unusually large
for mere county meeting, and clearly demon
strates that the Democracy of Fulton are fully
awake to the Importance of united and vigorous
action in support of Democratic principles and pol
icy.
Few counties in the State have better working
Democrats than Fulton. They permit no reverses
to dampen their ardor; and if they do not succeed,
it will be no fault of theirs.

OHIO DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.

The Democracy of Ohio have held their State
Convention, and nominated Hugh J. Jewett for
Governor, and John Scott Harrison for Lieutenant
Governor. A series of resolutions were adopted,
deprecating the civil war; and pledging the support
of the Ohio Democracy to the government in all
constitutional efforts to enforce its authority and
ensure obedience to the laws. The Convention
Was well attended and entirely harmonious. All
attempts of the Republicans to get up a fusion

public as the best
FAMILY SEWING MACHINE

Now in use irrespective of Price
We ask attention to the following points Of
excellence in WEST WILLsoSs Machine.
LIST. It's simplicity, and the directness with
which the power is communicated TO the needles.
This is great desideratum andin this we claim
a decided superiority over all other machines
I'd. The needle and needle bar are both
straight and the motion directs the needle bar
Is attached to n small wheel driven by larger
one, instead of 10 the long arm Of lever, MS in
most machines, with power upon the short one.
The latter arrangement necessarily makes the
motion Of the needle both circular and weak,
while the former gives strength and directness.
Sd. The great power and directness of the
motion enables us to sew all fabrics, from game
to four thckncsses of leather, with almost equal
case, and the Machine can be made TO run,
without changing needle or thread, through all
the different thicknesses, from Il sheet of paper
to heavy leather, and back and forth without
dropping a stitch or breaking thread. We
know OF no other family machine of equal ca
pacity.
4th. II uses silk, cotton or linen thread from
the original spools; unlike most machines, it
will permit the scam to be turned Mt right an
giles at its highest speed; il has much more room
than any other family machine for passing goods
through, thus allowing to pass freely the hcavi-
est garments, bed-quilts, &C., and it will turn up
readily upon hinges attached to the stand, tho
this is seldom necessary, as both tensions are
regulated from above.
5th. The Machine will do a greater variety
of work than can be done by any other stitch.
1t will HEM, QUILT, GATHER, EMBR0ID-
Err and CORD and will do neatly and rapid
ly every variety Of sewing that can be done by
similar stitch upon the highest priced machine.
No machine will make and put upon garments
the finishing cord as neatly as ours.
