TuE posr,os OF v,norsrA.-The virgi.

TnE posrrIoN OF VIRorxrA.-The Virgi.
MIA Convention, 10y vote Of l2l to 20 has
passed a resolution declaring that the indie.
pendence Of Confederate States should be
recognized by the United States. The Con
ven,on also passed resolutions requiring a
settlement Of the difficulties by peaceful
negotiation, and said Virginia will await a
reasonable time for an answer to her propo'
sition, but it is an indispensable condition
that pacific policy be adopted towards Sc
ceded States and not subject them to Fede-
raj authority nor reinforce the forts. or re.
capture forts, and other property, or exact
payment of duties, and that all forts in the
seceded States ought to be evacuated"
RIVER Mlxlxe.-From inquiry We are
led to believe that extensive river mining
will be undertaken this season; as we learn
that on the North and Middle Forks of the
American, and below the junction, quite a
number of companies are making their pre-
parations for work. There seems to be a
strange seductiveness about river mining
Year after year heavy losses are suffered by
operators in the rivers; but believing luck
to be in the pot next time. the same men
will renew their lahors again. Occnsionaly
a strike is made, but our belief is that not
one company in five is renumerased for the
investment Of their money and labor.
ASAMoLors.-For the first time in the
history Of the country, under Lincon's ad
minis,ration the Federal officers are being
almost entirely filled by men from the free.
States. A few appointments have been
made south of Mason's and Dixon's line,
but very few. There are no. many men
from that section who apply for, or will hold
Office under the government. This in itself
goes far to show how wrongful and odious
are the doctrines Of the Republican party.
A party whose principles do not command
suppor. in all parts Of the Union must be
dangerous to the peace and stability of the
country-which is but too true, rs can be
seen in the present unfortunate state of pub
lie affairs
The con6nine Of Federal appointments to
one portion Of the country, has opened a
fine field for the "irrepressibes' TO settle
down upon the fat places, and they reve in
anticipation Of the enjoyment Of feeding at
Uncle Sans crib.

RoLLA, Sept. 9-EigIt prisoners were sent

tured in skirmish between the home guards
and rebels at Douglis Prairie, in Gasconade
county. Two rebels were killed, and in an
other skirmish the same day ten more rebels
were wiped out ard thirty two horses were
captured. At another place near Cuba two
rebel scouts were taken with Provost Marshal
McKinsry's passes in their pockets
Advices from Springfield to Friday morning
state that no battle had been fought between
Montgomery and Rains. Up to Tuesday last
McCuloch was reported to be at Fort Smith,
and his troops were en- route for Fort Walker
in Arkansas. Nothing definite was known OF
his future movements, but it is supposed he
would remain neal the line, ready to act in
concert with the Missouri rebels as occasion
might require.
Price had gone to reinforce Rains. Their
united forces We're about 1000, and when last
heard from, Price was about fifteen miles from
Fort Scott, in Kansas, aud a battle was expect
ed on Tuesday last week Ciaib jackson left
Springfield Sunday night, to join the state
forces. Gen. Fremont's proclamation reached
Springfield on Monday, creating considerable
sensation.
