linkea themselves to the slave propaganda

insolence and corruption became no longer

TO speedy extinction. The rule will pass

THE PROBABILITIES OF an
ENGAGEMENT.
WAsu1nnrnN- Sci

sept 10.
Gentlemen, from the West, now in this
city, say any change in the head of the
department of the West will seriously
check enlistment throughout the North
west. and operate against the taking of
The national loan by Western citizens,
while Fremont's proclamation carried out
would give both great impetus. The pro-
clamatIon would be believed as the real
cause Of Fremont's removal, notwith-
standing the support given him by the
Cabinet. The matter is still under Ton.
sideration by the President.
Two plans which had been matured by
Gen. Fremont to capture Pillow and Mem.
phis. were frustrated by orders from
Washington.
A detachment of loyal Maryland vol.
unteers crossed the Potomic at Williams
port a day or two since, attacked a com
pany of rebel soldiers, and drove them
some distance beyond ShepardstOwn, Va.
Several negroes in full uniform came
70 this city with a regiment from the city
of New York. Secretary Cameron now
insists that the colored men shall not wear
the army uniform.
New YoRKs Sept. IS.
This evenings Commercial says, we
think we have sufficient authority for say
mg that as far as a movement of the ma
tional troops is concerned, there IS no
| probability of an engagement within
thirty days. Of course if attacked there
will be a general and severe battle. Our
troops are we'll prepared 70 meet any
number they may bring but for perfect
ing the arrangements for the onward
movement it is deemed best to accom-
plish certain things which may not be
efectually done in less than thirty days.
/ These matters have no reference, we be-
lieve, to the raising of more men, the
government being satisfied that it has all
that it will require.
BALTIMORE, Sept. Is.
All reports about Gen. Johnson cross
ing the Potomas are unfounded,
There is much alarm al Mar,.fpsburc
and Winchester about Gen. Be.nks cross
ing the Potomac.
LOUISVILLE, Sept. IS.
Early this morning me United States
Marshal seized the Office Of the Louis
ollie Courier, and arrested x-Governol

the prOpTiet3rs of the Courier, and Mar
tin w. Barr, t~elegraphie news reporter
Of the New Orleans Associated Press, or
charges of treason or completely wild

Why can't some arrangement be made
by which we can at this place receive our
mails some FIVE or six hours earlier g.
There are two ways it can be done. First
to discontinue the daily route from Rock
Port to this place, and establish a direct
route from Saint Joseph to Omaha, OF
the Kansas and Nebraska side OF the
river. This would not only greatly ac-
commodate our own immediate locality,
but the whole section of country between
the points named. By this arrangement,
we would receive at eight O'Clock in the
morning, what we now get a four and FIVE
o'clock in the afternoon.
Another arrangement, bating our mail
arrive here from Rock Port at eight o.
clock in the morning, instead of depart
ing at that hour would answer the same
purpose. Our mail matter from Saint
Joseph arrives at Rock Port about day
light, and there remains until afternoon,

AT West Ely, in Marion county, Col.
Moore, of a regiment of Home Guards,
last evening, fell in with IS to one hun
dred secessionists. Col. Moore had 200
men. He Immediately gave battle, and
routed the rebels. who scattered in every
direction. Two Of the Federal forces
were killed. 1t is not known how much
the rebels suffered, it being dark.
Tom Holmes captured a Government
Agent named Smith, in Boone county, a
few days since, and took from him Sl2,
600, and a number of horses. 1t was
expected that Harris would take possess
sion of Columbia, Boone county, where
a bank is located.
Capt. Foster, of Col. Manhin's regi-
ment, Franklin County Home Guards,
brought in seven prisoners last night who
were directly from Hardee's army. They
report that a fight had occurred in Har-
dee's camp between the Missourians and
the Louisianians in reference 10 the con-
duet of the Missourians in the battle Of
Springfield; the Louisiarians charging
the Missourians with cowardice, and also
treating them as towards.
The Louisianians charge that while
they were fighting, the Missourians ac-
tualIy stole their horses and fed. Gen.
Hardee was falling back on POcahontas.
The Missourians were Dispensing.
WASHINGTON, Sept. Ia.
The President transmitted the follow.
ing to Gen. Fremont, on the 18th inst,
on the subject of Fremon's proclamation.
He says;
Assuming hat you, being upon the
ground, could better judge of the neces-
sity of your position that l could at this
distance, on seeing your proclamation Of

you expressing the wish that you would
modify that clause. Your answer ex-
pressing the preference that | should

that said clause be modified, held, and
