HEAVY Loss We understand that the
loss to J. W. Gruen L Co, by the burning
Of their woOlen factory, on Wednesday,
viii amount fully to s35, 900, and unfor-
tunately there was no insurance., a pol.
icy for nearly two-thirds of its value
having expired about three weeks ago,
and had not been renewed.
There is no positive evidences as to
how the FIRE originated, but it is supposed
to have originated about the dry kiln.
1t is serious loss, as We said yesterday
morning, not only to the propristors bat
to the city, and especially to the large
number of women and children who
there found employment
We hope the enserprising proprieiors,
have By industry and economy made and
saved sufficient during the past three
years, to rebuild and again 20 on with
their business, and if they have not, thst
such material aid viii be given them BY
capitalists Of the city as to enable them
to start in business again.

GUERRILLLs on TIE BoRDEE-THE
MoRsrNe STAR FIRED oN.--From the Of
6cers and passengers on the Morning
Star, We learn the rebels and guerrillas
have complete possession ofthe Kentucky
shore hence TO Louisville, and are be-
coming bold and impudent
One hundred and FIVE took breakfast
yesterday morning at HawesviIle, and q
short distance above Greensboro band
to the number of $50, we'll mounted,
under the command of the notorious
Walker Taylor, was discovered coming
down the river. They dashed into
Greensboro about the time the Morning
Star was passing that place, yelling like
sayages, aud made their appearance on
the river bank, and attempted to decoy
the boat to land But, after whistling, as
il she intended to land, Capt. Bunee had
all steam put on, and made the best pos
sible time out Of reach of the thieve-
! ing seounoreis
A squad of halt dozen followed the
boat some distance down the shore and
fred some thirty or forty rounds at her,
only enc of which struck the boat, doing
no injury At the first sign of danger
Capt Bunce took his position in the
pilot house. and directed the movement
Of the boat, bringing her safely
through
Ia view of this increase of guerriIlss
aud rebsls on the border, it is irnpera-
tive that our people be vigilant The
Legion should be put at once on a war
footing, and that We should be prepared
for any emergency.
We know the military authorities here
are keeping themselves well posted in
reference to the movements of the
rebels The people should all be
awake.

OPRRArroxs OF CoLoRED TRooPs.-
From Rev. Mr. FAlkenburgh, who has
Just returned from Fort Donelson, We OBJ
tain full details and particulars eff the
defeat of $50 rebels By detachment of
colored troops from the Fort Donelson
garrison, q miles south Of that post, on
THURSDAY Of last week.
This detachment of IS men, Of whom
about 10 were Ethiopians, under com
mand Of Lieut. Upton. of the 4lh U. S.
Artillery, on that day started out on re-
connoisance, not aware Of any consider
able rebel force being in that region.
As they were descending a hill they
met $50 rebels, detached from General
Lyons command, and who had come
through from Jacksonville, and were
marching towards Fort Donelson to feel
the strength Of the Federal garrison
there.
Both parties we're ignorant Of each
others presence until they we're within
short range Of each other, both descend
ing into a hollow.
Lieut. Upton Immediately relreated up
she hill into large cotton field in which
we're several old log houses.
Here fight ensued for the possession
Of the buildings The rebels attacked
the handful Of colored troops with great
vigor, confident Of an easy victory, but
we're repulsed some three several times,
and the negroes succeeded in gaining the
shelter OF the buildings.
Here, fighting under cover, the con-
test was more equal, aud the rebels soon
beat hasty retreat, leaving some 30 or
40 of their number 90 the ground killed
and wounded.
As soon as the rebels retreated, the
negroes raised the cry Of Fort PILLOW
aud rushed oVt to massacre the wounded
but Lieut. Uptop interposed, declaring
bis purpose TO shoot down the FIRST man
who injured a wounded rebel, and tell
ing the negroes that they could afford to
be m ore humane and magnanimous than
rebels
The negroes, upon reflection, thanked
Lieut. Upton for his good advice and
inteFposition, and absolutely took These
wounded traitors up 10 his arms and car
ried them until they met the anbulanesl
that had been sent for.
Burying the dead, and carrying in the
wounded, the gallant little band returned
to the fort in high glee, having fully il
Illustrated the proposition generally doubt
ed by Copperhsads, that negroes viii

AxoTHER BauLAST ExFLoIT.-Rev.
FalkenburE relates another little affair
that took place on Sunday last, some
seventeen mica from Fort Donelson
On Saturday eight negro came into
the fort FROM a distance of seventeen
miles, and informed the commaudaut
that on the next day there would be a
Masonic funeral IN the neighborhoOd
whence he came, and that the notorious
guerrilla chief Phillips, and his band Of
cut-throats, would be present.
A detachment Of seventy colored
troops were At once despatched to the
place, with instructions TO lie in ambush
near the graveyard, but not to show
themselves or Gre gun until the cav
airy sent TO cooperate With them should
come up. The negroes concealed them
selves in a dense thieket close By the
graveyard, and awaited eyents.
Soon the procession arrived, Phillips
and his men taking part il the esremo-
mics The negroes observed orders;
waiting for the cavalry, until two OF
Phillips men, accidentally wandering
towards the thieket, bad approached to
within some twenty feet of where the
negroes were concealed
Seeing that discovery was ineyisable,
the negroes Cred on the "gyrills, .
bringing them down, and then, like
lions from their lair, they rushed upon
the baad at the grave wiih loud yelIs,
and such seampering for horses was
never witnessed in that region.

exception Of Eve, who we're captured.
