ST LOUIS, Oct 21-The friends of
Gen. Fremont last night welcomed his
return to this city by grand serenade.
From 1000 to 5000 persons were pres

cordial and enthusiastic.
In response to repeated calls the Gen.
appeared and made few remarks, re-

stating that the principle object of his
visit now was to be present at the trial
of his friend and fellow soldier, Gen Nc
Kinstry, believing as be did that assaults
upon him were made solely because he
felt it an honorable duty to stand by the
side of his chief

Gen. scott,s Letter..

WASHINGTON, October 2l.-Early. in
1861, when civil war seemed pending,
but had not actually broken out, General
Scott wrote two papers containing his
views, professional and political, on the
crisis and the rights and duties which
devolve on the Government in this mo-
mentous junctnre. One of them has re-
Gently been published withoutthe writer's
consent The second appears to-day,
having been furnished to the. press 81
1t establishes in the first place the pat
riotic anxiety OF. the GeneraEin-C Chief to
prepare for the coming storm, and his
earnest and repeated efforts to prevail
on the Government to garrison and SCI
cure the Southern forts against every
possible attack, and discloses in. the sec
ond place the causes ofhis failure, which
it is now evident, resulted from theinde,
cisionof President Buchanan, who was
doubtless risled by thetreachery in the
Secretary Of War, if not in the other
members of the cabinet, in whom the
President reposed misplaced confidence.

party was sent out towards Bristow Sta

enemy was there during last evening.
Three of the party returned and re
ported t hat. the others had been cut off.
This story was soon proved false, by the
arrival Of the remainder ofIthe party
without having received any injury.
They had been attacked near Catletts
Station by about twice their number, and
by engaging them at close quarters pre-
vented their making further advance.

CAIRO, Oct l9.-The rebel Jeffreys,
who has been in charge of a camp at
Little River, commenced his work this
morning. A number of his men, va
riously estimated at from 80 to 700, en-
tered the town of Commerce, Missouri,
and took possession. of it Messengers
were Immediately dispatched to Cape
Girardeau, and when the Platte Valley
came along, 400 men from the 29th Mis-
souri,, under the command Of Capt Muir
ply, we're put on board and went down
to that point The boat landed two
miles above Commerce, and put the men
off, As she passed the town, the Union
flag, which usually flies from the top of
the liberty-pole, was flying at halfmast
union down--the signal of distress.
1t is supposed this was given TO induce
the Platte Valley to land, but she disre-
garded7i it, and arrived safely at Cairo.

Commodore Porter has dispatched the

From Capt Beasley, of the John Bell,
l learn some additional particulars. He
landed at the woodpile where the Platte
Valley put off her men just as the Platte
Valley was leaving. The man who kept
the yard Informed him that the rebels
numbered about hundred and fifty, and
| that they had literally sacked the town,
carrying off goods, horses and all the
loose property they could get their hands
on. pns
Capt. Beasley says as he passed the
town his men cheered, and the cheers
were returned from shore. While he was
passing, the flag was hauled down and
sent up right side up, which would seem
to indicate that the rebels, after plumber
ing all they wanted to, left town, and by
thistime it's quiet hgain, the rebels has-
ing received nice outfit for their camp.
The pilot of the John Bell says, he saw

ST.. Louis, Oct 2l-Dispatches from
Helena report all quiet and the fort
nearly completed. The rebel General
Holmes had sent to Gen. Carr, under a

which course Holmes entered an en-

Gen. Carr promptly responded, telling
