MANASSAS JUNCTION, July 25th, 1861.
Mr.. EnlroR.-Iu accordance with your request
herewith transmit you n copy of the Muster
Roll of my company. We are now encamped Mt
tue fav-fnmed Manassas Junction, al,ut three
miles from the scene of last Sundays carnage.
And, assure ycu, our surroundings are calcula-
ted to impress upon us the belief that the 2lst
Of July 1861, is tlay long to be remembered, not
only on account Of the glorious triumph Of QUE
arms, but because it was day the transactions Of
which spread veil of gloom aad sadness over
many happy hearthstoncs oil both sides the Poto-
mac. I wish that lincoln, and Scott, ard Seward,
we're here to witness the agony Of the wounded
and dying who arc now crowded in every place.
Or would prefer tLut they should bc compelled
to wander about ar:ong the dead and the dying,
whose purifying Curpses now lie scattered in
every direction around here. l thak if they
were forced to witness these scenes, it ould make
them shuddcr in view Of the moral responsibility
resting upon the parties commencing and prose-
cutting this unhoiy war. Tomorrow We will
march TO Fairfax c. IT,, fifteen miles from here.
It is the impression here that Ecau1esard intends
to take Alexandria and then attack Washington.
Very Respectfully,
Your 0bcjicnt Servant,
JEROME ". WALKER.

which will bc permanent during the war. 1t
Is understood that tic debate on this subject
presents 4 Siugc alternative, on which the
sentiment Of Congress is much divided. 1t
is, whether the Government should extend
the produce loan, or whether it should take
the control of the crops Of cottnr, sugar and
tobacco as ja"&ha&,r. Each plan has its c-
Spectivc advantages. The latter, However, is
considered more direct, more available and
comprehcnding large mutuality of advan,

tellgence Of a battle that had been fought at
or near Springfield, Missouri, in which the
forces under General Ben. Mccullough gained
a signal victory over those eof Siegel, which
were cEtrenched, but could not withstand the
furious assault 0: the great Texan Ranger,
AMI gave way after a hard fight, in which it IS
reported that 900 Of Siegel's men were slain,
while Gen. McCulluugh's loss was near G0O.
This may bc somewhat exaggerated, and The
number of prisoners less than had been re-
ported. although there is little or no doubt
that II sigcal victory has been achieved
