RuMoRs FROM BELow.- Information
was brought to this city Yesterday morn
ing that the guerrillas had made an ct
fort to cross the river at Shawneetown
on Friday night, but had not succeeded.
- On Saturday they we're engaged in
building boats opposite Mt Vernon, and
had placed large number of skifs in
the river on the Kentucky side, indicat-
ing that they purposed a crossing.
Late Saturday night firing in the di.
rection Of Shawneetown was heard at
Mt Vernon, end it was supposed that
d. rebels were again attempting Il
cross at that point,
The necessity of preparing for defene'
here must now DO apparent to all on
citizens, and he who opposes this pre-
paration or places distractions in it
way, is public enemy and should b
treated as such.
Z A boat loaded with troops was ser
down yesterday 10 watch movements b

A NIGHT OF ExoITENENr-GUERRIL-
LAS REPoRTEp CROSSING TIE RIVER
THREE STEAMERS REroRTED CATruRED.
THE LEGION CALLED To ARNs-About Q
o clock last night the anxiety that had ex-
listed in the city eliminated in a genuine
alarm, BY the arrival of a courier from
Mount Vernon, announcing that the
guerrillas had appeared before Shawnee
town on Saturday evening, attempting to
cross on the bar.
The Shswneetown Artillery resis,-
ed them successfully and drove them
back. They then passed down to Saline
Mines, four miles below, where it is saiC
they captured the Charmer and two othel
boats, supposed to be the Carrie sn'
Gem. With the Charmer, it is said, the.
crossed 500 men to the Illinois shore.
Immediately after the arrival of thi
courier, the alarm guns were fred, an
ct once the Legion sprung to arms, on
streets swarming with men and hristhu
with hayonets. As We have always pre-
dieted, when the danger, that has bee
so imminent for several weeks, va
made manifest, our citizens responds
with commeadable promptitude, an
within two hours at least 800 men wei

Tax MYSTERY SoLvED.-The Times a
fsw days ago raised great ih6wl BE-
cause a soldier, in selfdefeuce, killed a
man named Blue or BulIew, who had
made an assault on him after having
applied to him every opprobious epiihet
be could conceive, and indirectly advised
the Democracy Of Posey county to mob
the Veteran.
We supposed this out-burst Of passion
was the result Of the natural hatred the
Times man eutertains for soldiers 10 the
Federal army, but we now learn he had
another incentive.
Blue had been in the rebel army and
was at heart unchanged, although he had
changed his base Of operations This
accounts for the large amount Of milk
found in the cocoa-nut.

wise that,they we're promised an opPortu-
nifty to have bout with the cowardly foe.
In addition to the Legion in the city
cavalry and infantry came in an in
credibly ehort time into the city from the
rural Districts, and quite little army
was organized.
We have been informed for some days
that the programme of the rebels was to
cross the river at Shawneetown and cap
ture the cannon there and then march
to Marion, Ill, where they have been
promised 1000 men from the Sons Of
Liberty, then march to Chicago and In
dianapoIis and liberate and arm the
rebel prisoners at those places, and then
commence an indiscriminate destruction
and devastation through the States Of
Indiana and Illinois. We have not suf
fcient creduliiy to swallow this story en-
tire, as we think the contract would be
far too large for Adam johnson or any
o'her guerrilla chief to carry out.
The arrangements fof the protection
Of the city are ample, but Of course de-
tails are contraband; yet we have no
iouot that the rebels will be fully advis
I'd Of everything before morning by
their spies vim which the city swarms.
STOLEN HonsE-We call attention to
the Advertisement Of horse stolen or
strayed," by Leroy Calvert, in another
column. The horse was brought here
from Kentucky for safe-keeping, and
Mr. Calvert will pay liberal reward for
his recovery.
II is not impossible that he was traced
to this city by some guerrilla from
Gods country" as the distinguished
Capt Dennis used to call Kentucky.
GUERRILLAs At LoxG RUS.-About
ten O'Clock on Wednesday night, says
the Louisville Journal, four guerrillas,
said to be connected with band Of thir-
ty thieves, nov lowering on the borders
OF our county, called at the residence Of
Mr.. A. G. Malone, of Long Run, and,
rousing him from his slumbers, began to
question him az to his politics He told
them that he had always been consider
ed a Union man, and had acted with the
Union party. They then accused him
Of being Odd Linoolnte," and broke
open his store and robbed It of what ar
ticles Of value that suited them. After
committing the robbery, they secured
their plumber, mounted their horses, and
informed Mr. Malone that, when they
learned that he had turned Southern
rights, they would make it convenient to
call and settle for the goods Mr.. Ma
lone has been robbed several times by
these scoundrels.
