Gen. Pope may have been mistaken--we
hope he was-and may have arrested him
without sufficient cause, but such was not
the general understanding at the time.
The charge Of drunkenness, we are
sorry to say, is universally believed in this
city, from the personal observation of cit
liens who have visited the Third Reci.
ment, as well as from scores of private
letters received here from friends, fathers,
brothers and sons in camp.
We certainly have no personal enmity
to Col. Williams, and were 10th to bring
such matters to the public attention, ard
in several eases declined to publish letters
in which such charges were made against
him.

THE SURRENDER OF LEXINGTON!
Hudson, Mo-, Sept. %.

Hudson, Mo-, Sept. %.
The following account of the siege oil
Lexington is furnished to the st. Louis
Republican by Henry Bradburn, one o,
Col. Mulligan's soldiers, who left Licking
ton Saturday morning The fort was
surrendered on Friday p. N. The men
fought for fifty hours without water, aud
had only three barrels of vinegar to quench
their thirst during all that time There
were no springs or wells in the camp, as
has been stated. The supply was from the
river and was cut off after a desperate
fight on Wednesday. The camp grounds
consisted of about 10 acres and was loca-
ted short distance from the river. There
were breastworks entirely around it with
the exception of the portion next the river.
II was here the hardest fighting took place.
The rebels procured large number of
hemp bales, rolled them in advance, aud
under their cover gradually succeeded in
securing position in the rear. They
then cut off their supply of water and had
the fort completely surrounded They
made but few charges upon the breast
works during the entire siege Their
object seemed to be to surround the fort
and cut of the supply of water, and hav-
ing succeeded in this, they waited until
Col Mulligan was compelled to yield to a
foe more terrible than the q 900 rebels
who surrounded him. Previous to his
surrender he offered to take position on
a level spot of ground and give General
Price the odds of four to one in fair and
open fight, but no attention was paid to
it. After the surrender the rebels mount
ed the breastworks and seemed mad with
JOY. As soon as the surrender took place
a party took down the Federal flag and
trailed it in the dust. An immense
amount Of gold, supposed to be about q
quarter of million, fell into the posses
sion of the rebels. 1t was taken from the
banks and buried by Col. Mulligan on the
camp ground sometime ago. The rebels
speedily unearthed it. Col Mulligan
wept like a child when he found himself
compelled to surrender The men were
all released on parole and ferried across
the river. The officers were retained
The loss Of the rebels is not known. but
il thought to be not less than 1000 killed
and wounded Their first attack was more
disastrous to them than the long siege
which followed. For a day or two preyi-

ashington, sept. "A.
The Cabinet is In session this morning
and il is understood that the disaster to
he Federal forces at Lexington is the
subject of discussion. The opponents OF
Gen. Fremont charge that he could have
prevented the necessity Of Mullgan' $ sur
render BY sending timely reinforcements
to Lexington. Recent adyices from st.
Louis by Frcmont's friends, however, state
that ne had no troops to spare, and that ii
was entirely impossible for him to strength.
en- Mulligan's position. The livelicst dis
cussions of the state of affairs in Missouri
prevail here to-day in all quarters.
Intercepted letters, written by rebel
member Of the Legislature of Maryland,
show that traitor members of that body
had formed an elaborate scheme for pass
ing secession ordinance and an attempt
to inaugurate an armed rebellion in tic
State against the power of the Federal
Government. The summary measures OF
repression alone saved the State from the
horrors of civil war.
1t is ascertained that General patter-
sons campaign in Virginia cost the Gov
ernment fully Sl0,000,000. The sole re-
suit was the capture of some 20 fugitive
slaves, nearly all of whom were returned
to their masters.
