SURRENDER OE MUMFoRDsVILLE.-The re-
port mentioned in dispatch in our last is
sue, that Mumfordsville, KY, had been
captured by the rebels, Is confirmed. A
Louisville dispatch, of the 2Oth lust, gives
the following particulars:
At the surrender of Mumfordsville, on We'd
nesday morning, the rebels took about 1000
prisoners, who are reported to have been sub
seouently paroled. In Sundays fight at that
point the rebels attacked us with eleven regi-
ments. On Tuesday there was skirmishing for
% hours, the rebels endeavOring to gain the
north bank of the river, in which they lost IL
killed. On Tuesday night Buckner's 3 division
was added to the attacking force, and the fight
was renewed on Wednesday, and continued
until the Federal ammunition gave out. A sur
render then followed.
Another dispatch says the Federals lost
ten pieces OF artillery, and that their loss
in killed and wounded does not exceed fii-
ty. They we're completely surrounded by
Bragg's forces, estimated at about thirty
thousand.

REBEL ATROcITY.-Major Cassidy, relea-
sed prisoner, furnishes the Albany Argus with
the following incident Of rebel cruelty;
Capt. Warner Of the rebel service, Com
missary Of the Libby pision at Richmond was
telling US one day Of good joke OF MS. IL
appears that soon after the battle of Bull Run,
a young Union soldier was brought into DIR.
Higinbotham's hospital, and there bis leg was
amputated just above the knee. Warner, who
was present at the operation, obtained some
India ink and needle, and prlcked into the,
remaining stump, "This is Lincoln's doings."
The poor fellow, insensible almost with pain:
not having uttered a sound before, now groaned
with agony to have been thus insuted, and he
unable to resent it. This, Capt. Warner told
us, in the presence of the Rev. Mr.. Moore OF
the Presbyterian Church of Richmond, who
blushed with shame at the recital of the cruelty
Of this miserable ruffian.

The DIFFBRENCE.-Th The London Times,
speaking OF the draft Of soldiers for the Union
cause, says, "the scheme Of forci6le levy OF
troops in a republic to subjugate and hold down
another republic, is one that will hardly be Sc
riously proposed even by the more fanatical Of
Mr.. Lincoln's advisers" But the scheme Of
fOrcible levy of troops in one part OF the repub-
lie, to put down and destroy the Government,
encountered no such protest from the London
Times. That scheme was quite in keeping with
its notions of propriety. JEFF. Davis is cheered
at Oxford for it. Everything in John Bull'seyes
is quite lawful and proper which aims at de-
stIoying the Government of the United States;
nothing which aims to preserve it can be toler-
ated. John will see the result of his teachings
on the subject by-and-by.

GENERALS HOOKER AND MEAGHER.-By
late dispatches from the East, it appears
that the wound Of Gen. Hooker, at the bat
tie of Antietam, is more serious than at
first supposed, aud fears are entertained
that it may cause the lOCkjaw. He is one
of the bravest and best of our generals,and
we earnestly hope he may recover. Gen.
Meagher, we rejoice to learn, was not kill
ed, but only wounded; and from the word.
ing OF the dispatch, we judge bis wound is
not regarded as dangerous.
The Nevada Democrat., 1862-09-23

They have an exemplary
way of serving "skedaddlers" in Maine. When
news of the contemplated draft was received in
the town Of Norway number of rebel sympa-
thisers banded together, and resolved to follow
the example of the Revolutionary Tories by
emigrating to the British provinces. Making
due preparations for the journey, they "ske-
daddled" out of the back doors, and took the
early morning train for the Queens dominions.
The conductor, understanding the matter,
slowed the train in the mid Of dense swamp,
and sent word through the cars that he was
ordered to arrest all fugitive passengers, and
send them back to await the draft. Quick as
lightning the guilty ones sprang up seized their
carpet-bags, leaped from the train, and plunged
at double quick into the swamp. They have
not been heard of since.

THE PROPOSED New REGIMENT.--In an
swer to an inquiry, as to whether compa-
ny from Nevada would be accepted, 10 the
regiment it is proposed to raise to go East,
W. received dispatch from Mr.. Lent, yes
terday, stating that they were waiting ore
ders from Washington, when they would let
US know. We do not know the nature of
the orders for which they are waiting, but
IL seems that no movement has yet been
made below towards recruiting. We learn,
however, from other sources, that if a reg
iment is raised, there will be no difficulty
in having company from this county ac-
cepted. 1t is expected that three or four
companies will be organized at San Fran
CISCO, one at MarysvilIe, one at Sacramen-
to, aud the remaining companies In the
mines; but II is calculated that large pro-
portion of the men composing the compa-
MES organized in the cities will come from
the mountains.

MORE INDIAN MURnERs.-A dispa tch from
Salt Lake, dated on Sunday last, says that
Chas. Mcbride, arrived there the day be-
fore, one Of party of fifteen from Virgin
ia City, bound for the States. The party
was attacked by Snake indians, at the City
Of Rocks, on the Humboldt route. They
fought the sAvages twenty miles, losing Elk

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 23d.
The steamer Pacific arrived last night
from British Columbia and Oregon. With
two hundred passengers, and $S3,269 in
treasure.
The Oregon telegraph line is completed
between Portland and Canonville.
The total receipts of the patriotic fund
in Oregon, up to the 10th, was nearly eight
thousand dollars.
The opposition line of steamers, via. the
Nicaragua route, will make monthly trips.
Rates of passage will be announced in ten
days.
Gen. Wright yesterday pardOned thirteen
soldiers, confined at Alcatraz, for various
nfractons of military law.
The American Theater was crowded last
night 10 hear Starr Kings lecture for the
benefit of the patriotic fund. 1t will net
about one thousand dollars. Subscriptions
in this city now reach $lS5,OOO and still
continue. The amount raised far exceeds
the expectation of the most sangune.
A dispatch from New York, dated yester-
day, acknowledges the receipt OF $lOO,OOO
sent by telegraph to the President of the
Sanitary Fund last Saturday.
A Washington dispatch of the 22d says
the reported death Of Gen Meagher is incor-
rect. He was only wounded. Gen. Hook

The BATTLE or ANTIETAM.-This is the
name given to the battle fought near
Sharpsburg, Nd, on Tuesday and Wednos-
day of last week. Judging from the mea.
gre accounts thus far received, 1t vas the
most bloody engagement of the war. A
dispatch from the battle field, dated Thurs
day morning, stated that the Federal loss
10 killed and wounded was estimated at
from ten to twelve thousand, and that the
enemy's lose would not exceed ours. But q
later dispatch Gays, after our forces bad oc-
copied the whole field the rebel loss was
found to be far greater than at f-st sup.
posed. Full twenty-five hundred dead were
found lying on the field, and much larger
number had been buried the day before by
friends. Their loss 10 killed and wounded,
it is said, will not fall short of eighteen or
twenty thousand. The rebels were defea.
ted in the engagement, Eut retreated 10
good order, saving the greater part of their
transportation trains, and all but three
hundred of their wounded. There is rea.
son to believe that measures have been ta-
ken to intercept the retreat Of the rebel ar
my. Heintzleman, who was in command
of a large corps, had been left at Washing
ton, ostensibly to protect that place, and
we hear nothing of the corps of Banks and
Sigel in the late engagements.

GEN. SIGEL.-Our German citizens, feeling
proud of the acts of General Sigel, as every
true man is, have decided to inform him, in a
most substantial manner, that they appreciate
his acts in aid of the Union, his love Of liberty,
and his Generalship, during the war Of Rebel
lion. They intend to forward to him a speci-
men of California manufacture, which will tell
him that in this far off country he has friends,
will be "gold eagle" properly ornamented
with precious stones and other adomments,
which will enhance its richness. The cost of
the present when completed will be 81, ,OOO.-

NOTABLE DEATH.-Rear Admiral George
c. Read, died at the Naval Asylum, Philadel-
phia, Of which institution he was Governor, on
Friday, August 22d. Admiral Read was ma
tive Of Ireland, but entered the service of the
United Staths in 1904. "For more than half a
century, he was everywhere, and upon all oc-
and maintained the rights and honor of the
the country. He breathed his last in her ser
vice, unwavering in his patriotism and his at
iachment to the Union" So says an order
from the Navy Department. Deceased was a
Lieutenant on board the Constitution when
that vessel captured the Guerrero.

ROBBEO.-A dispatch to yesterdays
Journal states that John A. Seely, of North
San Juan, while returning to his home
from BOpe's ranch, in company with his
wife, was stopped on the road by q rObber,
and relieved Of valuable gold watch and
twenty dollars In money. During the Op-
GRAFTON, the rObber remarked that he had
served seven years in the State Prison. and

SAN FRANCISCO has already contributed
$l35 900 for the benefit Of sick and wOun-
ded soldiers, and the subscription papers
are still open. The purpose is to raise a
quarter of million In that city alone. The
movement should be extended over the
whole State, and we doubt not will be.
California has not suffered as much as other
States by the war, aud her citizens have
not been called upon for the full quota of
volunteers under the late calls; but we have
as deep an interest as the people of other
States in the preservation of the Govern
ment, aud if the proper efforts are made,
the State will contribute princely sum for
the benefit of the soldiers who are fighting
the battles of our country.

The Culn,irariou of AboIihOni-Hn.

From the New York Gersld, March %.
Wendell Phillips, the great Moses Of abolition
ism, was rotten-egged at Cincinnati the 9thel
evening. Aaron, another abolition priest, wa,
treated in the same sort of unsavory omelette a.
Darlington, NV Jersey, on Thursday night
This Aaron is sUruQmed Samuel, is dubbed a
reverend, and breaches 10 persons Of the Baptist
persuasion, at the little village OF Mount Holly.
not far from the scene Of his martyTi0m. The
abolition Moses and Aaron both tried TO do the
same thing, and mt with the same reception.
They endeavOTe1 TO talk treason, and were
rOtten-agged l. seems that northern dIsuniOn-
lists are in equally bad OdOr in Ohio and New
jersey, aud the people who rebuks them choose
missiles remarkably significant of the general
public opinion ot such a~gitatOrs.
Of course the Herald cannot approve Of the
mobbing of these fellows, or Of any interference
with the right of free speech, so long a. that
right is properly exercised We would greatly
prefer that the people, instead of r0Ete1-eggIng
these agitators, should let them severely alone.
refuse to listen 10 Their speeches, and leave them
to mouth treason 10 bare walls and empty
benches
But, before calling the persons " rowdies -
aud rioters who interrupt these aboHtioulsts,
we must remember the very strong prOvocauous
to such disturbances, and be careful 20 celS IRE
justly aud wisely At Cincinnati, It was rot
until Wendell Phillips called al Union lovers
" ignorant white men, and declared Jhas he had
been ian aboiiliolist, and nothing else, for thirty
years, and has been &c for sixteen years d dis
uni9nist,' that rotten eggs gave emphasis 70
Kisses. At Burlington, il was not until Aaron
dehouucsJ Inc present administration aud The
manner in which the war was conducted, that
the audience Kissed and rotten egged him. In
both cases, then, the pr0VJcad0n was 50 ample
that, while we may wish the loyal people had
at home, We cannot pity abolition lecturers
nor think their punishment too great.
