Messts. George Knapp & Co, publishers OF
the Missouri Republican, write us that ''neither
t'a deed Of trust, nor an assignment, nor
s'snythirs Of the kind, for the benefit Of
"Easterr creditors, or Western creditors, or
sarybody elee, has ever been dreamed or
"talked OF" by themselves, and that the con-
trarv statements in cur St. Louis cosrspon.
ccrce are wholly incorrect They add that,
having recently made q denial Of a former
statement OF q Ike character which appeared
in cur columns, it seems to them that edito-
raj courtesy should have prevented repeti-
ton OF the oderce. Our reply Is, that we did
nc: observe the denial referred to, except as
i. was a1luaed to by our correspondent We
Lare certainly had 10 intention nor desire to

Gen. McClellan's official dispatch to the
War Department, announcing his victory
Mt Rich Mountain, puts at rest all doubts
concerning the importance and complete
ress Ct the achievement. Il appears that
tie rebel forces were commanded by Col.
Garnctt, of Virginia, an ex-Congressman,
ind that the forces under his command
consisted Of Virginians, Georgians, Ten
rcsseeans, and q few Carolinians. Gen.
Mcclellan announces that he has cleared
Northwestern Virginia Of traitors, and he
expresses the confident belief that Gen.
Cox has, by this time, driven Wise out ol
the Kanawi.a Valley.
LATER.
II will be seen BY last nights dispatches
that Gen Mcclellan is likely to have q
whole regiment Of prisoners on his hands.
The REBEL Colonel Pesram proposes to
surrender 10 him six hundred rebels,
which, with what he now has, will make
about one thousand. This looks like
work but what shall be done with the

DEMOCRATIC EDITORS IN COUNCIL
There is to be meeting of democratic
editors in New York city, to-day, for
what purpose is not disclosed, but the
general impression is, that but very
little good for the nation can come out
of such a meeting. In the very fact
of such meeting there is a revival of
partizan distinctions and partizan pre-
JUDGES, and if the object be, as is sur
missed, to patch up some sort of COM
promise, it will simply be pointed at by
the Southern rebels as fact that the
North is sick of the war, and that it
will only be necessary for them to make
littlskbolder movement, and all they
ask will be conceded. "See," they
will say, "our old friends have been
overborne, but the reaction has begun,

Result of the Wheeling Convention.

The action of the Wheeling Conven
ton will form an era in the history Of
the country, and will 90 far to redeem
even Virginia from the infamy which
the course of the Richmond traitors
brought upon tin the end, we believe,
it will result in her redemption from
the horrible thraldom in which she has
been bound. The result of its delibera-
ton has been reconstruction of the
State government. Every State officer
owing allegiance to the rebel Confeder.
acy has been formally deposed, and
new officers elected to I'll their place.
The State is now established upon a
firm Union basis, and will be recog.
nized by the General Government
when this rebellion has been thorough
ly rooted out. 1t has been stated by
some Eastern contemporaries that d.
vision of the State had been deter
mined upon. But is this an error. The
Union convention acted upon the as
sumption that Letcher and his collea-
CUES, had by their reasonable acts and
infdelity to the General Government,
forfeited their positions, and the Wheel
ing Convention has resolved that the
offices so forfeited shall be filled by men
true to Virginia and to the Union.
This is the right policy, and in adopting
it, the Virginia Unionists recommend
themselves in our highest admiration
and respect. In legal, peaceful, con-
stitutional way, they obtain a victory
over the traitors far more decisive and
than any victory won upon
the field of battle.

Five hundred South Carolinians occu-

three guns was planted above the
curve. as reported, with the intention
of allowing the train to go by and then
disabling the engine so that our few
forces could not return, but would have
20 surrender to the Carolinians. The
train was delayed. The FIVE hundred
southerners got disguised and left.
The artillery were leaving when the
puff Of the engine was heard. They
mlmbered their guns and fired six
rounds with the we'll known result,
then ran away; so did Gen. Schenck.
The cavalry seen belonged to our own
