Z. M.-The Warlike preparations have caused AZ
Increasing excitement here. The feeling of oppo

stances.
Lieut.. Howard, of Maryland, has already re,
signed and gone South to offer his services TO Pres
dent Davis. 1t is rumored that Col. Lee also pur
poses resignng.
Enlistments for the South are increasing very
rapidly.
Gentlemen from Virginia say she will certainl,
secede if any blood is spilled.
There is decidedly increasing prejudice her,
against allowing Republicans to hold office, AMI
violence is threatened against them in case of ths
attempt being made.

The dispatches from Springfield to the Mis-
souri, Republican, which we publish In another
column. with that papers own heading, dis
close new and important feature in the
plans Of the enemy. 1t amounts to no less
than the withdrawal Of the Federal forces
from Western Missouri and sending them
down the Mississippi. That this is the pCli-
cy OF the administration we have no doubt
whatever and it behooves the government
as well as the whole people of the valley to
look well and earnestly 10 the fact.
The descent OF the Mississippi will be made
by probable force of flom seventy-five to
one hundred thousand troops. To meet this
force, will require all the resources that can
be brought to bear against it, and what is
more, there is no time to be lost. The Fede
rails at ST. Louis are building and have well
nigh completed six or eight gunbCats to be
accompanied by one hundred and fifty barges
as transports. These demonstrations, together
with the fact that troops are pouring into
Cairo by regiments daily, are pregnant with
Significance, and should serve to arousg our
whole people to sense of their danger. We
admonish them that they have work in store
for them if they would defend their homes,
their rights and their sacred honor TO
ARMS! must be the watchword from this
day henceforth. Every man 10 tie country
should be prepared for the emergency

with the 13 killed and wounded On Friday
comprises the total loss of Williams.
On Friday last, the 18th inst, just on

On examining her condition We ind the

When the Rusk s party reached the maya
zine, some of the ends of the cartridges were
crlsplng, and the cannon cartridges were so
no. that they could scarcely be handled.
The Royal Yachts cntlas>es were found
below, but Der small arms, with the excep
ton of two guns found on deck, were miss
ing. One OF the muskets found on deck went
off after our friends boarded her. Her gun.
as stated before, was on deck. but burned
and biackrned considerably. $50
The night was quite dark, and the opinion
IL that the frigate launches got near the
Royol Yacht. before they were discovered.
A number of musket and pistol balls were
found bedded in her sides and on deck. The
frigate's party must have been badly scared
and left in hurry, as several articles be-
longing TO them were found on deck.
The forces attacking the yacht were prob
ably at least 100 we'll armed men. Though
some distance from the guns of our forts, yet
it was daring enough to bid US be on The
alert, but it does not compare with the cool
courage of our men ON the steamers Rusk
and Pelican Spit, who fought down the fiery
element, with an explosion from the maya
zine threatening them every moment. When
it is remembered that the yacht was fired
with oakum balls saturated with turpen tine,
which were scattered through the hold, the
successful result of their efforts seem aston
ishing. All the officers and men engaged
deserve great credit.
There is no permanent damage done the
vessel, and we have No doubt she can soon
be repaired at slight expense.
Though the crew of the Yacht were over
powered by perhaps ten times their number,
we believe The enemy have had to fight for
their nights work. They have gained fifteen
prisoners; but fortunately, we have several
thousand on our hands, and can afford to be
liberal in an exchange,

We saw this morning gentleman from
Bath county who participated in the fight
near Piketon on the Sth inst, with portion
of General Nelson's command. He assures
us from his own positive knowledge, that
there is not word Of truth In the report Of
that fight sent from Maysville and Lexington
to the Northern papers, and copied by US on
Saturday last.
Our informant, whom we know TO be re-
liable, gives as the following interesting par
ticulsrs:
On Friday morning, the 9th inst, Capt.
May, of West Liberty, Morgan county, by
direction of Col. Williams, who was with his
command of some l 400 to 1000 men, sta
toned at Piketon, TO which point they had
fallen back from Prestonburg, proceeded to
point on the Big Sandy, called the 'Nsr-
rows" about fifteen miles from Piketon.
After partially burning bridge across ra-
vine, to prevent the passage of the enemy's
artillery, the brave Kentucky mountaineers
posted themselves on the hillside, where
they concealed themselves behind logs, rocks,
etc.
The enemy approached cautiously, but
seeing nothing in the way proceeded into
the ssnarrows" with their force. When they
reached "a abrupt angle in the Rad, at
preconcerted signal our boys opened muir
derous FIRE upon them which was kept up
for full half hour. The Yankees were
signally repulsed and Withdrew under cover
of their artillery, which shelled the bill SIDE
with but little effect, however. They then
attempted to flank our men by climbing the
hill, when Capt May withdrew bis command
to point where they had placed their
horses, and returned to Pifeton, with aloss
during the engagement of only 6 killed and
s wounded. sr
Among those who distinguished them
selves in the fight by their gallantry and
daring our informant mentions the names
of Capt. Thomas, of Bourbon county, Capt.
Ezekiel Clay, "a SON of Brutus ]. clay,) of
Bourbon, Capt, May, Of Morgan county,
and Capt. Hawkins, of Bath. The men were
