Em FRUTH ABOUT THE INDIANS.

II has been q mooted point whether
Buokner really has Indians in his army or
not. Il has often been asserted on what
was thought good authority, but secession
lists have always denounced it as Islander,
and declared that It was only told to excite
prejudice against Buokner, and stimulate
volunteering. Judge HollingsWorth sets
the matter Of rest Re salB the Indians on
the cara going up from Memphis to Bowling
Green. There we're no tWo or three regi-
ments, however, ss the reports have run.
How many thsre may be he cannot tell, but
the party he saw gotng up could not have
numbered over three hundred.
THINKS TIME WILL BE A pEsPERATE FIGHT
AT BOWLING GREEN.
Judge HollingsForth does not agree with
the opinion. that has recently been *
pressed in some quarters that the rebels,
alarmed atour Whelming numbers, viii
not make 9 stand at Bowling Green. he
thinks that not only the temper Of the
troops, bat the exigeucies Of the situation
viii compel Buckner to meet our advancing
column there. BE dare rot retreat WIN
out battle, because he has nothing to fall
back upon. If Bowling Green is lost, sll
IL lost, and thera Is nothing that can resist
our march on Nashville. The situation
Buokner now has, is we'll fortified. II he
can successfully resist our superior num-
bers anywhere, he can DO il there. To fall
back from his fortifcstions, would be to
confess himself beaten without battle.

From st. Martins Parrish.

We have been kindly favored with the folio wing
extract from letter to young lady Of this city,
from the highly intellectual and patriotic wife Of
planter in the parish of St. Martini dated Oct. I6:
We commenced rolling last week for a few days
only, and discontinued ON account Of the greenness
of the cane. Our prospects are not at all fatSer.
ing for this season, and as we wish to do all for
the good cause we can, 1t is most unfortunate moi
to realize more. assure you the ladies mere are,
and have been. most jealous working up cloth FOR
shirts, drawers ETC., knitting socks aud sending
off boxes for the volunteers of St. Martn's parsi
everything needful for winter clothag and lint for
wounds and bandages.
MIown box I sent to Gov. Moore, who writes
me it has arrived safely In 1t were twenty flannel
shirts, (Which made up partly n1yset, the seam
stresses of the plantation assising) and thirty pair
Canton flannel drawers, and sE paira heavy new
blankets. I used mp three bolts Of Canton and
two Of woolen flannel. That was my eontribn.
ton. Now, if each one will do az weN there will
beno lack OF supplies for our brave. veluhteers.
| New Orleans has done her part nobly aud mag
unanimously, and am indeed proud of tho city of
my BIRTH. And Louisiana soldiers have covered
the State with glory. There is no doubt that the
great God watches over to protect and aid Rs.
That the prosperity and downfall of natous and
kings is in His hand, and that He oYerrnles events,
can plainly be seen, if you only turn 70 the Book
of Daniel, where Darius, Cyrus and other great
potentates, besides Nebuchadnezzar, are rnade
agents in His hand and are raised up or laid low
according to His purpose and their cause.
Many Texan volunteers, thousands inCieed, have
passed through here, sometimes remaining g day
or two in our village and were entsrsained ny the
families there. They came in often from a long
| march, fatnshed wet and weary. Some of them
were young men ofswealth and position.

potatoes, and send them to the troopa constantly

Letter from Texas.

AUsTIN, TEXAS, Oct s, 1851.
Ed. CreScent-1n common with the people along
the whole line of the Southern coast, we feel q
doubt, and consequently an apprehension as to
when, where and how the next blow will be struck
by the minions of Lincoln, on the ocean or gulf
border. Our coast is extensive that it is prac-
teal mpossibility to protect every point with per-
feet security, but we have the satisfaction Of
knowing that every point which is of importance
to US, or which could yield very material advan-
tages to the enemy, can and will be protected.
There is one advantage to us in relation to the
Texas coast, and that is, there are but few places
of any degree of importance to us or the enemy,
and tor that reason our efforts at protection are
confined to such points. Nothing would suit us
better than for the bastard foe to place his nfam-
GUS foot on the mainland: we can drive him to
the gulf and into the gulf with the utmost ease.
The greatest damage that can be done ns is by
and bayous to rob henroosts, and steal fruits, but
this is no such hurt as will subdue Texas, or in the
least interfere with doing the cowardly foe all
the injury in our power-wreakng just ven
geance on the men who come South in pursuit Of
beauty and booty"
God is too just to permit such people to
triumph over us.
large artillery and infantry force has beer
called for by the Commander of this Department
to man and defend the material points on the
coast. One artillery company, Capt. Fl. Wilke
left this morning OF Brownsville. His company il
composed mostly OF, Germans, who are well suited
for that arm OF the service. There are some Amer
leans in it. Capt. Wilke is an experienced praotica

Rosencrantzg Under Il Cloud.


This gentleman is taking his turn of unpopularity
He may have committed grave errors, and it ia
possible that he is deficient in of the qualities
of a great captain" We only know him as a
man of thorough military education and vast gene
raj information, who few weeks ago enjoyed an
extraordinary measure Of public confidence. Now
we cannot obtain our own consent to join in the
outcry against him because one part Of his army is
ragged and another suffering with fevers. No
general of whom We have read was SO fortunate
as to conduct campaign without finding trans
portation difficult apd many Of the Intermediates
honest Napoleon had to shoot few quartermas-
ters; jackson longed for an opportunity of doing
likewise. The army on the KanaWha is suffering
from camp fevers These are certainly the result
Of the terrible weather that has prevailed, and the
eXhausting forced marches that have been made.
The troops have seen severe service, and their
condition, in consequence, is bad. Many now
blame Rosencrantz for his march from C1arksburg.
Suppose he had remained there to preserve the
health of his troops and left Cox on the Gauley to
be cut off by an overwhelming force, as he surely
would have been if not supported? We do not un-
dertake to say the complaints against Gen. Rosen-
crantz are unfounded. Some of them may be well
grounded. But camp fevers have decimated the
best armies nnder the greatest generals. They
the most effective of preventiyes is the Intelligent
self-care of the soldiers. Without that, consum-
mate science, constant care, genius military me-
dical, will not avail. Officers from the Kanawha
tell US that the troops there are well clothed and
have plenty of good provisions. The sickness
which is to be lamented, arises from the forced
marches to which the men have been subjected
and the unfavOrable weather. The marches, it is
true, have not produced any brilliant victories but
| the people have not been accustomed in this wal
to find fault with generals for moving the soldiers
lbeut too much.

AFFAIRS IN MIssoUR1.-We have late and au.
thentic information from Gen. Price, by which we
learn he was at Neosho, in Southwestern Missouri,
on the 2lst, to which place he retreated before
Fremont, who was pursuing with all his forces. It
was thought probable Price wonld be forced to
fall still further back in the direction of Fayette-
vile, where McCuiloeh was awaiting reinforce
ments.
Whether Prices retreat was matter of neces-
sity or only strategic move, to draw Fremont out
as far as possible from St Lonis, SO as to extend
and thereby weaken his line, before giving battle
we can only surmse. The probability is, that the
superiority Of the Federal force has made a retreat
necessary. If so he may fall back until he meets
reinforcements from MoCulloch, when we may eX
pect another severe sght.
1t is hardly possible, we think, for the Federal
General, with such materials as compose bis army
to escape defeat at the hands of the tried and gal
liant men he will encounter. But speculation is
idle, now, when The question of superiority has
perhaps already been submitted to the bloody ar
bitrament of the sword, and decided. Intelligence
from Missouri will be looked for with great
anxiety. memphis Appeal, Saturday
