From our Regular Correspondent
ST. CLOUD, MIMI, IL o'clock, P. MI
October 3. 1862.
To the Editor Of the Pioneer.
l have just had an interview with Capt.
Ambrose Freeman, of the Frontier Cav
airy, the company Of mounted men raised
in this town, who left Fort Abercrombe
on Tuesday P NJ. last. His company, with
the citizens in the Fort, and one company
of the Minnesota Third, who went up with
Capt. Berger, were detailed as an escort
for the women and children now on their
way to this place.
Since the last dispatches there have
been three attacks on the Fort, the Indians
being driven back each time with consid-
cradle loss Capt. Freeman and the train
containing the women and children, with
the escort, started on Tuesday last, and
were followed all the way to Chippewa
Station by the Indians. Each night they
camped and threw up breast works, posted
their pickets and exercised so much eau
ton, that they were not attacked, and,
when left by Capt. Freeman, yesterday,
three miles this side of Chippewa Station,
had not lost single person.
The train consists of some forty wagons,
besides the escort of infantry and cavalry.
They are expected here tomorrow evening,
and preparations will be made to receive
them and make them comfortable.
After the arrival of Captain Berger the
post was thoroughly fortified, and a large
quantity (solne three hundred bushels) of
potatoes were dug for the use of those in
garrison, and taken thither. There is
great scarcity of provisions and ammuni-
ton in the Fort, andsthere is no forage for
horses. To procure supplies Of these rath-
er essential articles is part of Captain
Freeman's business here He will prob
ably proceed at once to St. Paul, and re-
port to General Pope.
a. Montgomery has just arrived from
Forest City and Fair Haven, and reports
all quiet in that quarter.
Colonel Thomas left here this afternoon
for Fort Ripley.
Captain Freeman met that portion Of
the Wisconsin Twenty-ffth destined for
Sank Centre, some ten miles above Rich
mond, to-day. O.

General Buell..

The efforts of the malignants to deprive
this officer Of his command, have not yet
succeeded. He is still Commander-in-
Chief of the army in Kentucky, notwith-
standing all reports to the contrary. The
Louisville Journal, Of Tuesday, says:
1t is reported that Gen. Buell. was yesterday
relieved from his command of the Department
of the Ohio, and Gen. Thomas appointed to
succeed him. Gen. Thomas, however, tele-
graphed to Washington, and was backed by
nearly all the other division officers, recon-
mending the retention of Gen. Buell. We are
happy to state that the application was success
full, and that Gen. Buell. was restored to the
command in which he has won the confidence
of our people, and We are confident that he
fully deserves it.
The Louisville Democrat, of the same
day, says:
Buells ability as general is well established,
and any experiments just now should not be al
lowed. There has been general dissatisfaction
at the progress of events. Exiles from their
homes are impatient for forward movement
and the soldiers are impatient to be after the in
solent foe; but the General, no doubt, has ex-
cellent reasons for his course. We shall soon
see the wisdom of his appointment.

Arrival Of General Morgan.
HARDSHIPS OF THE MARCH.

CINCINNATI, Oct. A military order
was issued to-day suspending the drills of
the city military organization till further
orders.
A dispatch from Capt. Hauser, Thirty
Third Indiana, dated Greenupsburgh, KY,
Sd inst, says Gen. George W. Morgan
arrived with his whole command at Green
upsburg this evening. He brought all his
trains and artillery with him. His men
are in fine health Notwithstanding the
many hardships they have undergone on
their march from Cumberland Gap.
The Commercial says Morgan's retreat
was the most arduous and hazardous of
the war. During the march northward,
our army was constantly enveloped by the
enemy's cavalry. Morgan maintained the
offensive throughout.
On one occasion we marched thirt six
successive hours. For three DAYS your
troops had no water but that found in stag
nant pools.
All the guns at the Gap were brought
away except four thirty-two Founders too
heavy for transportation The trunnions
were knocked off before they were aban-
dOned.
Greenupsburg, KY, is fifteen miles above
Portsmouth, Ohio.

The War in the South.
BEATREGARD TAKES COMMAND.
STIRRING WORK NEAR AT HAND.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-The Richmond
Wing says:
Beauregard, on September oath, off
cially announced his assumption of COM
mand of the department of South Carolina
and Georgia. He says: ''In entering
upon my duties, which may involve at an
early day the defense of two of the most
important cities in the confederate States,
against the most formidable efforts of our
powerful enemy, | shall rely on the ardent
patriotism, intelligence and uncOnquerable
spirit of the officers and men under my
command, not only to sustain successfully
but to maintain our posts with credit to
our country and our own honor and to
avoid irredeemable disaster, it is essential
that all should give implicit obedience to
any orders emanating from superiors in
authority
DEFENCES OF CHARLESTON AND SA-
VANNAH
PORT ROYAL, Sept g. 1862.
These two cities are being newly fortified
continually. The work in the trenches is
done by thousands Of poor slaves, the
white men having all enlisted, and being
now under arms. The whole quarter of
the city of Charleston which was destroyed
10y fire last spring, and the squares and
streets are all defended by ritie-pits, so
that the people may have the impression
that the city itself would be defended to
the last, even after the national troops
may enter it. All the corner houses of
the streets are fitted up as block houses
and barbados, from which rifemen will
fire upon the Yankees, provided they do
not shell the city in advance and burn it
down. Charleston bay is INSTRUCTED directly
across the ship way with piles, fire RATS,
&c, in order to keep vessels from entering
When a vessel runs the blockade one
OF the RATS is removed, and she is allowed
to pass in, when the vacuum is at once
filled up with he raft removed It is i'm
possible to tell the exact number of men
forming the garrison Of Fort Sumter, as it
is used as a sort of school for the instruc-
ton OF green troops, and the force is con-
tinually being changed from the fort to
other points. The petty officers and pri-
Yates in the fort are, for the most part,
composed Of Germans and Frenchmen, to-
gether with criminals of all sorts. Three
gunboats are also guarding the harbor OF
Charleston, mounting three nine-inch guns
and one rif1ed pivot, each. They have no
masts, and are to be used as ram-gunboats,
and for the immediate defense of the city.
These are called the ''blood tubs" of the
harbor, and are butt for the jokes and
.jibes of the citizens.

Our troops are said to have acted nobly.
We can get no distinct account of Friday 5
battle.
On Saturday morning Price attacked
Rosecran's right and Van Dorm and Low
ell his left. The assault was made with
great determination. At one time our
centre was penetrated aud the rebels
reached Corinth. At house near the
centre Of the town they were driven out at
the point of the bayOnet
Van Dorm led his column over an abat-
It's on the left up to within fifty yards of a
ditch exposed all the time to scathine
fire Of grape and canister. They were
driven back by a charge of the 9th Ohio
and 18th Missouri.
The battle lasted till half past eleven,
when the rebels began to retreat towards
Hatchie river
The number of killed aud wounded on
either side is not known The rebels loss
is reported to be much larger than ours
We have between 700 and 1000 prison
ers, not including the wounded
Gen. Hackleman is killed, Gen. Ogelsby
dangerously wounded, and Coils. Smith,
Gilbert and Morver wounded.
The Mobile and Ohio Railroad is not

ting off Prices retreat. Rosecrans moved
early this morning to renew the attack
Cannonading was heard to-day in the d.
rectiOn of those forces.
Price is in the forks of Hatchie river,
between Humboldt and Rosecrans.
