eupied they were surprised by 8 company Of two
hundred rebels, supposed to be portion Of Stew
arts Virginia cavalry. A few of our men succeed.
ed in obtGining their guns, but no attempt 70 form
was made, and the whole party fed precipi-
lately. The cavalry dashed in among them
taking some UITty-fve prisoners. Several shots
we're exchanged, and the men state fhat ore Of our
soldiers seen to fall They also state that ons
Of the rebel saddles was empted. One Of the first
acts of the rebels on approaching was 70 place
guard over the stacked arms of oRr men, who fred
at such approached for the purpose Of repossees
ing their arms. All the officers connected with the
expedition were taken prisoners. Captain Lanning
snd Lieutenant Andrews were march ed Of beside

asked permission OF the acting commander Of the
brigade to proceed to the rescue Of the captured
men It was, however, deemed best not to proceed
further in the matter at this time and permission
was not granted.

Gen. Hunter ON :. ..COntrabands,r
From The Chicago Tribune, Nov. II.

Gen. Hunters position on the contraband Ques-
tion is understood to be as follows: All negroes
coming into camp will be retained and such of
them as are proved TO be the property Of Union
men win be duly appraised and receipted for, to be
paid when and how Congress may see it"
We have long known that Major General Hunter
was an ardent and consistent Republican, and that
as such he belonged to the advance guard Of his
party but in spite Of the fact, we were not pre-
pared for the announcement of his position on the
contraband question which the telegraph from Mis~
souri, brings US. We print the paragraph above
and in it our readers viii see that he has gOze far
ahead Of his predecessor in his thoroughntss Of
his treatment Of the negro question and that ne
has even Outstrpped the Instruction Of the Govern
ment 10 General Sherman, given when
he set sail in command Of the Great
Expedition. But he is not in advance Of the most
enlightened public opinion, though fear that he
viii be called back from his position by the Admin
strstion which is not yet rapport with the people
on the causes and treatment Of the war. By his
plan Of operations announced above, the system of
chattel bondage becomes, whenever Federal army
moves. q thing of choice on the part of the bond
mand, with which the Government will have no
right to interfere. We shall see what Washington
will do and meanwhile we point To this declara-
ti0n made by the General conclusive proof that
the Proclamation of Fremont Hberating the alsyes
Of rebels, had nothing to do with his removal

LEAvESWORTH, Nov. 1.-THE First Kansas Cav
airy, Col Jennson has left here for Sedalis, No.,
to protect supply trains and other Government
property at that and neighboring points.
Jennison has issued proclamation to- the PEOPLE
Of Jackson Lafayette, Cass, johnson and Pettis
counties, Nc, from which the following extracts are
made
"We march to enforce the laws and sustain the
Government. Every loyal citizen is expected to
give evideaee of his loyalty by active efforts for the
protection of the flag.
For four months our armies have marched
through your country. YOur prOfessed friendship
has been fraud. Tour oaths of allegiance has
been shams and psrjuries. You feed the rebel
army. You act as spies while claiming to be true
to the Union. We do not care about your past DO
liticsl opinions. No man viii be prosecuted be-
cause he differs from Us. But neutrality is ended
If you are patriots, you must fight; if you are
traitors, you viii be punished. The time for fight
ing has come. Every man who feeds, harbors,
protects, or in any way gives aid and comfort TO
the enemies Of the Union, win be held responsible
for his treason with his life and property. While
all the property Of Union men, and all their rights,
will be religiOusly respected. traitors viii eyeryS
where be treated as outlaws-enemies of God and
man-tOo bsse TO hold any description of property
and having no rights which loyal men are bound
to respect.
The last dollar and the last slave of rebels viii
be taken and turned over to the General Govern
ment. Playing war is played out, whenever Union
troops are fred upon, the answer will boom from
the land between Fort Leavenworth and the head
quarters of the army of the West is the jurs
diction Of the United States, and we propose to
have regular road over it and safe cOmm1nica-
ton through it, no matter at what cost Of rebel
treasure and blood.

Northern Intrigue win Europe.

The Washington correspondent Of the New York
EyeniHg- Posi- writes
There is no doubt that Archbishop Hughes and
Thurlow Weed go to Europe, though perfectly inde-
pendent of the Government, yet in a certain sense
on its business. TIE visit was suggested By the
President or rather Mr.. Seward, and the object is
to meet such men Slide and Mason, and the other
willy diplomats of the rebel Government, and Gre
ste Northern sentiment in English and French DO
litical and social circles.
It is rumOred that Edward Everett and bishop
McIlYaine will follow in few days, and that Mr.
Bancroft, the historian. who deservedly stands so
high in Europe, viii also make visit, before the
hard winter sets in, to the English capital There
can be no mistake about these visits They are in
no private sense diplomatic ezra nds abroad but are
really private excursions abroad suggested by the
STATE Department for the purpose Of afFordiIg In
telhgent Englishmen opportunity to discuss with
the same class of Americans the war and the vari-
Gus questions connected with it.
The New York Tribune has the following:
We understand tha. Mr. Edward Everett is about
to visit Europe in the service ofthe Government He
goes, as Mr.. Weed and Archbishop Hughes have
gone charged by the Secretary Of State with un>
official duties Of diplomatic character.

"Scn Nelson's victory WodiFicd.'
Under the above heading, the Ciuci matt Ga.eQe
of the l6;h tells the facts in regard to the brsnt
victory" achieved by the Federals at Piketon, Ky
Ths Gazette says:
"Details of the battle at Piketon Kentucky given
in our special correspondence show that General
Nelson's victory was slightly exaggerated by the
early reports. The number of the enemy killed
was reduced from four hundred to TWENTY-FIVE At
the last account With the modern improvements
In the material of war, great victories are now
much less sanguinary than formerly. The number
OF prisoners taken is not two thousand and fifteen
as was exactly stated in the dispatches 10 Wash
ington, but IL will be when General Nelson takes
them and as there are more than two thousand
and fifteen rebels at lsrge to be taken the reporr
was only little premature.
"General Nelson's strategic combinations on the
battle were not correctly stated at first. General
Nelson's army was not formed in the shape of let
ter V, and Col. Harris did not feign & retreat to
draw the rebels within this admirable arrangement
They left before they received an invitation there
fore it did not close upon them like a trap. In
point of fact they were on hill, and few shells
from guns put them to fight. This slightly va
ries tho strategic points of the battle. The rebel
General Williams was not shot through the head
In fact, he was not sA0t through any part, having
bad call to leave the ground early In the affair
This modifes General Nelson's great victory some
what. The killed and captured rebels were I" IN
buckram." Bat it " az glorious victory, and has
rejoieed the hearts Of the nation and greatly cast
down its enemies. And when, as our corresponds
ent shews, it has broken the heart Of secession in
Eastern Kentucky, and closed the gate to supplies
and reinforcements to the rebels, the public mind
viii be relieved to find that so much h as been ac~
complished at so little cost Of blood"
