GuerrIllas put to Flight with a Quaker Gur.
The steamer Fitzhugh reached Cairo last
Saturday morning from Cincinnati, hay
ing had, on the way, a most amusing as
well as dangerous adventure. A special
dispatch to the Chicago Tribune says that
before reaching Curlew, KY, her officers
were informed that they would probably
meet with trouble from company Of guer-
rillas stationed there, and advised them to
be on their guard. There was not a gun on
board, but the master managed to procure
a piece of timber about five feet long and q
foot in diameter, which, with little paint,
he managed so as to make it resemble a
cannon, covered it with a tarpaulin and
mounted it on a pair of trucks, and, thus
armed, prepared to meet the enemy. Ar
irving at Curlew, they found fifty guerril-
las drawn up in line, who oincontinently de-
handed their surrender Those on the boat
said nothing, but brought UP from the hold
number of small pieces of limestone
sewed up in canvas bags to represent am
munition, and carefully laid them along
side the gun. The harmless bit of wood
was then turned toward the rascsls, and
the tarpaulin was about to be removed,
when the doughty warriors took to their
heels and ran as if the old Nick was after
them. At Battery Rock, on the Illinois
shore, another party, numbering about 40
who had crossed over the night previous in
an old fat-boat essayed the same under
taking, but these too we're put to flight by
this mighty piece Of ordnance.

Wnshinston,s opinion Of Northern and

The following is an extract from an un-
published letter from General Washington
TO Mr. Lund Washington, dated at New
York, June 18th, 1776:
awe have lately had a general review,
and I am much pleased in informing you
that we made a better appearance and
went through our exercises more like SOL
diers than 1 had expected.
"The Southern States are rash and
blamable in the judgment they form Of
their brethren of the four New-England
States. 1 do assure you, with all my par
tiality for my own cOuntrymen and preju-
dices against them, cannot but consider
them as the flower of the American army.
They are strong, vigorous and hardy
people, Injured to labor and toll, which our
people seldom are; and though our hot
and eager spirits may suit better in sud
den and desperate enterprise, yet in the
way in which wars are now carried on,
you must look for permanent advantages
only from that patient and persevering
temper which is the result of labor.
"The New-Englanders are cool, cOnsid-
crate, and sensible, while we are all fire
and fury. Like their climate they main
tain an equal temperature, whereas we
cannot shine but we burn. They have a
uniformity and a stability of character tc
which the people of no other States have
any pretensiOns; hence, they must and
will always preserve their influence II
this great empire We're it not for the
drawbacks and disadvantages which the
influence of their popular opinion on thu
subject Of government have on their army
they soon might, and probably would, Civ
law to it"

General Hunter positively denies that
he has ever said or indmated that the
black regiments Of South Carolina were in
any manner or to any extent failure y
on the contrary, he asserts that they
showed themselves excellent soldiers, and
is rsjoiced that the Government has at last
adopted his policy, by authorizing the
equipment and arming of five regiments of
negroes in the district where it had previ-
ously refused them. He says that if this
course had been taken from the first he
might have had 10000 defenders Of the
Union to-day upon the soil of the South.

UNION STATE TICKET.
q,urn out 90 tI,e Primnry Meetings.

We wish to impress upon the mind Of
every Union voter the Importance of at
tending the several meetings to be held
this evening in the several townships and
wards for the election of delegates to the
Congressional Nominating Convention of
Tuesday next Every man in this Dis
trict has a personal as we'll as social and
business interest in the question of repre-
sentation, and yet too many are apt to
suffer the nomination to go by default
rather than to put forth any personal eff
fort. This is all wrong, and if the men
who are thus careless are thereafter dissnt-
is6ed with the course Of their representa-
tives, they have only themselves to blame.
Turn out, then, one and all, and let every
man work and vote according to his hon
est convictions. In this way only viii he
have done his duty.
If the record of an honest member has
been upright, patriotic, honorable and ac-
tive for the good of the country and his
constituents, then every principle of hon
ssty and justice demand that he be re-
elected.

Matters Rt Camp Chnse---The 18th Regi-
ment.
CAMP CHASE, Sept. Il, 1852.
Ed. LEADER: Thinking it may be inter-
esting to your numerous readers to learn
a little of the present doings and proceed
ings at this camp, would state there is yet
a great number of secesh prisoners left
here. Some four thousand paroled prison
ers, mostly from the late fights of Manassas
and Richmond. Many new barracks are
being erected, and decided Improvement in
the character and appearance of the Camp
is taking place.
The 18th Regiment of Ohio Volunteers,
principally enlisted from, Franklin, Lick
ing, Champagne, Madison counties, is be-
ing organized, properly drilled and pre-
pared for active duty here. Its officers con-
sist of Col Wilcox, Lieut.-Col. Mitchell,
Major Warner, Black HarlOn and Upton,
Surgeons, Adjt Cox, Quartermaster Scar
rit; Captains Taylor, Fighter, BlockfOrd,
Riker, Peck, Nichols, Manson, Jones and
Adams better set of officers and men
cannot be found in Ohio. That they will
make their mark and gain laurels honOra-
BILE to the brave sons of Ohio, no one that
is at all acquainted with this Regiment can
doubt.
Hoping to be able to keep your readers
q little familiar with the future proceed
ings and operations of this gallant Regi-
ment, remain, &c. H.

The FeeIing in Charleston.

A private letter dated Charleston, July
26, which South Carolinian managed to
send friend in the North, says that there
is little doubt that with the defeat of the
rebel army in Virginia, the Southern Con-
federaey ends its existence. The hopes of
the South, he says, are staked upon the
success Of that army.
The letter also states that had the bat
tie Of James Island resulted in favor of the
National troops as it might have done cas-
ily, had there been 500 more men in the at
tacking forces, Charleston would have fall
en-. Everything was staked upon the re-
suit Of that one cantest, and the citizens
were preparingt to leave when the unexpect
ed defeat of Gen. Benham brought them
safety.

nIumf0rdsviIle Surrendered 10 the Rebels
A dispatch from Indianapolis, to the
Cincinnati press, dated the 2Sth, announces
the surrender Of Mumfordsville, Ky7
to the rebels on Wednesday morning, the
18th, the garrison numbering, according
to the report of Adiutant Lawson of the
18th Indiana regiment, who escaped from
Mumfordsville Immediately after the sur
render, 4,OOO or 5000 men. Bragg sur
rounded the place with an army thirty
thousand strong. The prize was valua-
bic one to the rebels. In addition to the
prisoners they secured four thousand stand
Of arms, ten pieces of artillery, with the
usual proportion of supplies. Nothing is
said about Buell. He has been watching
Bragg closely, we were told, but he must
have lost sight of him. Kirby Smith,
Louisville DISPATCHES say, is marching to
form junction with Bragg, in order to
engage Buell.. The movements on both
sides are important, all looking to an
early engagement. Louisville is being
fortified, and there was considerable ex-
oitement there Thursday The theater Of
war has been transferred, for the present
at least, from Central Kentucky. 1t be-
gins to be apparent now that the demon
strations against Cincinnati, were, in the
main, feints ocover rthecOmbination which
the rebels are trying to effect below.

caught. The method Of procedure, with
out being brutal, was characterized by the
peculiarities of the peculiar institution
The Rebels behaved civilly as a general
thing, and no insults were offered our SOL
diers.
By this capture the Rebels obtained
some 10000 stand of arms, 40 cannon,
cartridges, stores, &C. The force at the
Ferry was about 12,0OO-infantry, cav
airy and artillery.

From the New Orleans Delta, August 81 .
Colonel Holcomb, of the lst Louisiana
Volunteers, sent long letter to headquar-
ters yesterday, detailing an account of q
disturbance in his camp, and stating, at
the close, that he had been obliged to shoot
one Of the mutiDeers. General Butler read
the paper carefully, endorsed it "Shoot
another" and sent 1t back to the Colonel
