ments of the Seventh Kentucky Cavalry,
MajoriVimont, Fourth Kentucky Cavalry,
Lieut. Col Wickliffe Cooper, and Sixth
Kentucky Cavalry, Major W. P. Roper,
all under command of Colonel Louis D.
Watkins, a splendid young officer. of the
Fifth United States Cavalry, born in Ca,
and now serving as Colonel of the Sixth
Kentucky Volunteer Cavalry. The camp
was about eight miles from Franklin, and
its rebel occupants, principally of the
Texas Legion, were completely surprised
about daylight and fed in dire confusion,
leaving all their equipage to be captured
or destroyed There was another camp
about mile off, and Colonel Watkins
made feiEt of attacking that also, and
by thus diverting the attention of the
enemy, he was Fenabled to withdraw all
the stores which he had taken without
the loss of a single man. This shows the

sAN FRANCISCO, Sept 9.-The steamer ORR
zaba, from Panama, has arrived. She brings
dates via Manzanelle. from Gu.najan.o, to
the 18th, and from the City Of Mexico to the
18th Of August. Miramon had been appoint
cd by Forcy commander Of the Franco Mexi-
can forces. The Triumvirate had notified tue
representatives Of foreign governments that
. legal Government is now provided for Mex-
leo, and requesting them to recognize the Til
um1irate as constituting such Government.
The American and Central American min
listers replied that they must recoguIze uaraz
Government until further Instructions from
their respective governments. Comonfort
and Doblado Ind published strong appeals,
urging the Mexicans to respect the French.
A letter from San Louis Potosi, Mexico, the

Cabinet were urging upon the representatives
Of other American Governments, the fortna-
tion Of a continental alliance, embracing tho

FROM BLUNT'S COMMAND,

LEAyESwoE7n, Sept. 10,-Onicial intelll
gence Of the capture Of Fort Smith on the
3lst, reached here this evening. Blant crossed
within two miles of Cooper and Cabell, who
had force Of 4 ZOO rebels west Of the Fort.
The next morning he marched to attack
them, hut they had fled. Col. Cloud chased
Catcll 20 miles south, and had q brief engage
ment, but after few rounds, Cabe1l's men
fed In all directions. Our loss was eight
wounded. Capt. Lane, Of the I'd Kansas, was
Killed.
Before Cloud returned, Blunt entered the
fort, un1esfsted.
Blunt is seriously III, and will return home
ward as sdon as he is able to sit up.
The Greeks have mainly deserted the rebels.
Mcintosh has gone towards Red River with
only $50 men from his tWo regiments. In
thirty days no rebel force will remain in the
Indian Territory. Contrabands are docking
to Fort Smith. The rebels evacuated Little
Rock, and removed forty miles below to Fort
Washington, which they are fortifyins,

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER II, 1868.


It thurdc1s again al round the SKY, and
loyalty is chcered and strengthened, while
ihc bogus Confederacy quakes to its re.
motest corner. East Tennessee redeemed,
Chattanooga, Knoxville and Cumberland
Sap in our hands; Gen. Blunt again vic
toricus in Western Arkansas; Fort Smith
IN his hands and the rebels fleeing in wild
Confusion out Of the Indian Territory.
Charleston at the mercy Of G1lmore's guns
brought one mile and q quarter nearer BY
Our capture Of Wagner and Battery Gregg.
What are all these but brilliant steps Of
progress, and the promise that the reward
for Which loyal hearts arc looking is
ucare
The great meeting of loyal men, ire
slective Of party, at Galesburg, yesterday,
was most brilliant and gratifying success.
The people were there in their might.
Our San Francisco dispatch throws
f:ome light on our relations with Japan,
and the precice nature Of the late difficult
~ over which powder was burned.
We give in full Gen. Ewing's official re-
port Of late events in Kansas. It is only
half told, as will be proven when the his
1orian comes to write Of Ewing as well rs
Kansas.
Our news from the Pacific Coast is
highly important. The reports from the
new Eldorado Of Oregon will cause i'm
naensc excitement. One hundred and eight
pounds Of gold dust taken out in one mine
in single dny, reads like the tales OF the
Arabian princess who could not sleep
o'nights, though even for her it would
Seem 1eary piece ofromancing, But the
story is told with the scmblance Of truth.
The news from Mexico BY way Of Cali
tornia is highly important. The Franco
American Government seeks to be rccog-
nized By foreign Ministers resident in
Mexico, but they hold aloof Mexico,
under .Iuarez, is moving for a Congress Of
American nations, to say to European
powers that the doctrine must be enforced
Of no interference here from that side OF
