Affair in the Southwest.

Great excitement was produced last week
at Fort Scott by the report that Col Barstow,
of the Third Wisconsin, with three companies
of that regiment, had been attacked and cap
tured By the enemy in Southern Kansas.
There was, indeed, some basis for this, though
the disaster was not near so bad as was in
fsrred from the frst rufnors. It appears that
Col. B., with battalion, had left Fort Scott
to reinforce Captain Coukey, of the Third
Wisconsin, stationed st Monticello, Jasper
county, in this State. About fifty miles be-
low Fort Scott he was fallen upon by regi-
ment Of rebels who completely surrounded
bis little ccramaLd, and compelled him TO fight
his way out which he did, killing q captain,
lieutenant and fifteen privates of the enemy.
Col. Barstow, however, had few men wound
ed, and four of i've taken prisoners, beaides
losing bis transportation, hospital stores and
ambulances. The Federals made good their
retreat to Fort Scott. A large rebel force ID
reported in the Southwest.

Twenty-sIx Rebels shot.

FROM the Quincy Herald, Aug. III
One of the officers Of the Hannibal and st.
Joseph RAILROAD, who left Macon City, Mis-
souri,, on Saturday morning, and arrived here
the same evening, stated that twenty-six rebel
prizoners were shot ia Macon City on that
morning. They were captured in one Of the
late engagements with the rebels with arms
in their hands and paroles in their pockets !;
having been takeh prisoners in some previous
battles or skirmishes, and released on parole.
They we're formed Ia single hle, facing to the
front, and, after brief address TO them by the
Federal officer, the order was given to fire, and
ct the report of the musketry, the whole twen-
ty-six rebels fell to the ground lifeless bodies.
We regret that we are unable to learn the
name of the gentleman who brought the IN
formation here, or further particulars in rala-
ton to the affair, but have the assurance that
there il no DOUBT of the truth of the statement.
By the same authority We learn that twelve
other paroled rebel prisoners at the same place
will probably suffer similar fate this morn
ing. It is terrible doom. but undoubtedly
deserved.

The New ITunaldea.

Description would give q very inadequate
idea OF the great iron-clad steamship for the
United States navy, which is now lying, al
most completed, below the Philadelphia navy
yard. The ship herself is nearly ready for
sea. The plating can be finished in q few
days. When it is remembered that the keel
of this first great iron clad steamer of the
American navy was laid less than seven
months ago the progress made on her is amaz-
ing. The building of naval vessels of her size
has generally been the work OF years; but
here We have the greatest naval work ever
undertaken by our government finished in
seven months. a ship of $3.50 TONS meas
urement 24o feet long, 5s feet 8 inches
wide, and IS feet deep, covered with iron
plate four and a half inches thick, and
with heavier timbers underneath the plat
ing than have ever before been used, has been
created out of materials most of which were
in the forest in the shape of growing trees, or
under the soil in the shape of ore considerably
less than one year ago. The metamorphosis is
almost magical. The new steamer is not
yacht-like in model. Her lines would offend
the sensitive taste Of amateur navigstors. Her
blunt bow shocks the fastidious, who always
look upon the marine craft with an eye to sport
rather than fight. She is, in fact, built for
fighting rather than sporting, and her iron
Prov, that projects beyend the main structure,
Is meant IuOT0 IOr u6otFuctiOn 10 enemies IMAM
for speed against rivals. She will present no
comely outline when she has all her guns and
coal on board and is ready for sea; there will
be nothing to charm, but there will be great
deal to terrify. The perpendicular portion of
the sides will be below the water, and the SUPER
aqueos portion will present an appearance diff
ferent from ANYTHING ever witnessed befoIe iron
plating and sloping sides were deemed essential
in war ships. From Noah's ark down, through
the Egyptian, the Grecian, the Roman, the
Phoniclan. the Spanish, the Venitian, the Por-
tuguese and the English phases of ship build
ing, there has bean nothing seen resembling
the New Ironsides. As compared with q
proud Roman galley-one of the most pictnr-
esque objects In the history of marine archi-
tecture-she will be positively ugly. But her
beauty will be in her performance. Her en-
gines have a power to overcome winds and
currents, and her guns would, in few hours,
destroy all the navies Of ancient times, how
ever graceful and interesting they might be in
appearance. All Of them combined, if pro-
PEELED by wind against her iron sides, would
destroy only themselves, and she would remain
unscathed. Such work as this win compen-
safe for the lack of graceful lines. She will
carry eight ll-inch Dshlgreen guns on a side
and two 200 .pound riAsd Parrot guns capable
Of sending bail ak miles without any difti-
Guilty, thus rendering her one Of the heaviest
Vessels st1oat.

How King David Used q slave OF tke
enemy as a SeouG.


EDIToRs CHICAGO IBCHE;-TheGe Is an
other book of wars which our generals would
DO well to study slong with Hzrdes's Tactics.
Some of them who have so nearly spotheo-
sized the slaves that they dare MT use the
sacred things in warfare might be relieved in
their conscIences BY an example from Holy
Writ. The Anslekites had invaded the
Judah, burned the city of Ziglag, and carried
the women and children away captive, among
them Davlds two wives. The King inquired
Of the Lord and gained permission TO pursue
tho invaders with his army. While on the
march be found 81 Egyptian slave. who had
lain three days and three nights upon the
6eld having been left sick by his master, one
of the retreating AmalekiLes. But so far
from turning this deserted slave out of the
lines and proclaiming an 'Order No. g."
David gave him bread and water, and figs
and raisins, to rsvive his famished slave, and
then questioned him.
"Canst thou bring me down to this compa-
ny1' And he said, Swear unto me by God
that thou wilt neither kill me, nor deliver me
into the hands Of my master, and / will bring
tnee down TO this company" David took the
oath and the slave took them down to the
camp Of the enemy, who we're eating and
drinking and dancing over their victory and
their spoils. And David smote them from
morning till night, and not one escaped except
four hundred VIII. fed on camels. The cap
tives and all the spois were regsined and the
focks and herds of the enemy were driven Off
All of this will be found in the thirlieth chap
ter of First Samuel, from which let us learn
that the slaves will not Join our side in the
great civil war until we swear unto them that
We will not return them to their masters.
