morning, furnished the following items;
Gen. Lyon with his forces. has fallen back
on Springfield, having reached there on Mon
day morning, and was preparing for vigor-
Gus defence. The rebels were adva ncing by
four different roads, and their advance was
found to be from ten to fifteen miles distant
Gen Lyon had called on twenty five hun
dred home guards from the country around
Springfield 1t was expected the enemy
would make an immediate attack, from the
fact that their commssariat was In a misera-
bic condition, they being obliged to depend
upon forced contributions for temporary sup
plies. 1t was generally remarked in Spring
field that General Lyon was perfectly conf
dent of success in case of an attack He had
no entrench ments, but would depend uD his
splendid artillery in the open field. Fifty
wagons loaded with provisions had reached
him.

that they were not read and adopted in the Con
ventlon. They were prepared 10y a committee
after the Convention adjourned. The resolutions
we published were truthful exposition of the
views of Horace Greely. Andrew G. Curtin, ST.
mon Cameron, and the other prominent politicians
Of the Republican party. There is no use in a
few outside politicians after a Convention has adj
iJurned, in getting up resolutions which keep the
word Of promise to the ear, and break it to the
hope. Gentlemen, while you endorse the \. Y
Tribune as your political bible there is no use in

it to be corrupt and imbecile, why had you not

LETTER FROM THE CAMBRIA
GUARDS.

CAMP TENNALLY, ID. G. August, 10, 1861.
Friend MurGy-The 18th regiment received
orders to leave their camp above Washington on
Monday morning at 4 o'clock, but owing to the
delay of our baggage wagons we did not get
started uutil 6 o'clock. The regiment marched
to the White House and after delay of two
hours the Colonel received orders to march six
miles North of the city by way of the George
town road. One of Gen. M'Call's aids met the
regiment about five miles above Washington and
gave the privilege of encamping in stubble
field where we have any amount of sunshine
On Tuesday the Paymaster came into camp and
paid off the companies from the time they went
into Camp Wright, up to the 22d day of July
On Wednesday the alarm was beaten at O'Clock
NJ. and the different companies ordered out to
the parade ground where the regiment was for
med into line; after waiting until o'clock the
men were ordered back to quarters with instruc-
tions to be ready to march a: the beating of the
drum. The alarm, it is said was caused by the
enemy reconnoitering in the neghborhood of the
chain bridge, On Thursday the alarm was beat
the same time as ON Wednesday, and for the
same cause--after remaining in ranks until day
light, General M'Call gave us permission to
return to our tents, but on no account to leave
the camp. 1t is very annoying TO be called out
for nothing but it appears to be one Of the
privileges appertaining to soldering. Compan-
les \. & c., marched to tie headquarters Of Gen.
M'Call this morning. and exchanged their old
guns for rifled mimic muskets, of the most impro-
we'd pattern. The regiment is now making
preparations for going ON picket guard, and in
the next letter of your regular correspondent you
will get the full particulars of first expert
ence in that line of duty. S.
P.S. 1 had intended to give you a descrip-
ton of our camp and surrounding country, but
the orders to go on picket guard came very un-
expected, 50 I will have to forgoe that pleasure.

War News.

The news from the seat of War, since the bat
tie of Bulls Run, or Manassas, has been rather
unimportant. Gen. Scott and the War Depart
ment have been actively engaged in concentrating
fresh troops at and near the Capitol. General
Mcclellan has been equally active in seeing that
proper discipline is enforced the men properly
drilled &c. We do not think an advance move
ment will again be undertaken with army of
less than $50 900 well drilled men. But slight
if any fefrs are entertained of an attack on the
Capitol by Gen. Beauregard. 1t is highly proba-
ble he is only too glad to be permitted to remain
where he is. Gen. Mcdowell has at last publish
ed an official account of the battle at Manassas.
He estimates our loss in killed as follows ofic-
ers, 10 ; non commissioned officers and privates,
462 total killed, 481. Wounded officers, GA !;
on-commissioned officers and privates. 947 to-
tai wounded, 1O11-Total loss in killed and
wounded 1892; missin2, roughly estimated at
1916. The enemy's loss in killed and wounded
is supposed to have been about 1000.
The town of Hampton, in Virginia. near Fort
Monroe, was destroyed by the secessionsts, on
the night of the Tth inst. 1t consisted of 500
houses. The buildings being nearly all construc-
ted of wood, and the weather being dry, were
soon in flames, and the town was soon in ashes.
This, on a small scale, is parallel to the firing
of Moscow, by the Russians, when taken by Ma
poleon Bonaparte. 1t is said that the object of
the secessionists in destroying the town, was to
prevent it from being used by our troops for win
ter quarters. The enemy also, it is said, wished
to draw our troops into an attack on Camp Ham
ilton. belonging to the secessionists, or Newport
News, also in their possession. The destruction
of property very great.

the purpose of obtaining information with regard

useful to the Emperor of France hereafter. We

close to the switch and the engineer had not

came in collision with the disabled engine. when
the second engine was thrown over the siding and
down an embankment Oome twenty feet. The
