JEFFERSON Cry. Mo, Sept. 18.-The
correspondent Of the ST. Louis Democrat
gives the following account Of an engage.
ment with the rebels at Bonneville. on the
the 18th inst, taken from Capt. Epp.
stems official report:
The Captain says, after the fight had
lasted about ar hour, the Secessiouists
whom be had taken as hostages, became
so restless that they begged him to allow
one of their number to go with flag of
truce and ask an armistice. This hostage
came back soon afterward. while / let the
men cease firing, with the request to know
my conditions. I then demanded that
they should withdraw the rebel forces two
miles from the city, not to molest any of
our families and other Union people. to
leave the arms of the killed AID wounded
on the ground where they fell. while
promised to let the prisoners free whom
I had taken, with the exception of the
preacher, Pointer, who. informed them,
would shoot. in case they did not hon,
orably keep their promise for seven days.
They left town according to this agree
ment.
Thus the gallant fellow, with only one
hundred and Fifty men, actually dictated
his own terms to fully four times his mum
ber. The enemy fought well for little
while, but out of the whole six hundred
only six could be found to storm the
works.

they absolutely refused to follow. d
these six our men killed four, their two
leaders, Colonel Brown and his son Capt
Brown, falling so near the intrenchments
that they drew them in, and they died in
side. Besides these, the enemy lost eighl
or ten killed and wounded.
A courier just from Bonneville reports
that the rebel force was retreating to-
ward Prices command Besides Colone
Brown and his son, they lost two Other
captains Colonel Brown was armed with
three eight inch revolvers, rife, sword
and Bowie knife. The weapons are
now in the possession of Lieutenau,
Pease.
The correspondent of the Republican
says reliable information has boon re.
ceived that Lexington still held out on
Monday, and had been slightly reinforced
Two thousand men had arrived at Arrow
Rock, but Green and Harris had left
with Eve or six thousand men, taking 9
