Price whipped at Newtonia on the 2Sth and lost
two hundred aud fifty in killed and wounded, and
fifty wagons The Confederate Major Wolf ordered
to be shot in retaliation for the killing OF Major
Wilson, respited for fourteen days by General

says:
Another fight with Price is reported 1t took place
in and around Newtonia, in Newton. county, be-
tween our forces, commanded by MalOr-General
Blunt and BrigadierGeneial SanbOTn, and the bulk
OF the rebel army. The rebels evidently supposed
the pursuit had been given up, and they went into
camp with feeling of security such as they have
not felt since their departure from Bonneville.
General Blunt overlook them the 29th ultiTno
His advance consisted of two brgades, commanded
10y Colonel Ford, OF the Second Colorado and Colo
ne Jennison, Of the Fifteenth Kansas. GeneralCur-
tbs, with reserve, and General SanbOIn with two
more bT1gades, were some distance TO the rear
Blunt was with the advance, and was probably de-
eeved TO the strength of the rebels; but not
withstanding the regular army tactics which would
have declared his attack imprudent, he assaulted
the rebels on the edge of the town with his usual
vigor. The rebels fell back and forces pressed
forward TO find the main portion of the rebel army
under Price, occupying strong position The fight
commenced about two o'clock, with desultory skir-
mshing and lasted TIL dark The rebels too
strong to be driven from their position, and
too short Of ammunition justify further pur
suit. General Rosecrans had previously issued
defs TO General SanboTn 10 return after passing a
certain point, and the next morning all the troops
turned their faces n0rthward, Sanborn going 30

ton and Georgetown Morgans main force APP
pears to have turned North, and following the
line of the Kentucky Central Railroad attacked
the 16Sth Ohio Regiment at Cynthiana this
morning, driving them north and burning tn e
town and two trains which left Covington last
night, and this morning Morgan is apparently
trying to make his way out of the State nearly
in the direction he entered.
LOUISVILLE, June 1O.-The special train with
twenty armed men which left here at o'clock
last evening reports that they went within
thirteen miles of Frankfort, and ascertaiued
that the ordinance train beyond here turned
back and went towards Frankfort, with an es-
cort of forty soldiers on board, fighting a
following force of rebels at various points.
The rebels had INSTRUCTED the railroad at
several places between here and Bagdad by
falling trees and completely destroyed the
bridge in the rear of the ordnance train as it
returned from Bagdad towards Frankfort. It
is supposed the train arrived safely at Frank
fort, but telegraphic communication is not yet
open to the city.

rebels this afternoon, but the report is dis
credited here as headquarters has received no

THE BALTIMORE CONVENTION.
PROCEEDINGS OF WEDNESDAY.
Nomination of President and Vice
President.

BALTIMORE, June 8.-A motion was then
made to nominate candidates for President and
Vice President.
Gen. Cameron, of Pennsylvania, offered as
substitute a resolution that Abraham Lincoln
and Hannibal Hamlin be declared the unani-
nous choice Of the Union party for President
and Vice President. Great cheering and calls
for division of the resolution.
Mr.. Cresswell, of Maryland. called for di-
vision of the resolution so as to vote on that
portion of the resolution declaring Abraham
Lincoln the unanimous choice of the Conven-
ton as its candidate for President of the
United States.
Mr.. Stevens moved to lay the resolution on
the table. Confusion and cheers, and cries of
"question."
Mr.. Cameron withdrew the resolution and
offered the following:
Resolred That Abraham Lincoln be declared
the unanimous choice of the Union party as
its nominee for President of the United States.
AS the vote was about being taken, Mr.. Ray
mond urged that the vote should be taken by
States, that as it had been said there was dis
position to rush the nomination of Mr. Lincoln
through this Convention and to stifie any con-
trary expression of sentiment, such vote
would carry with it more of the power and in
fluence than the passage of any other resou-
ton. The proposition was well received.
Amidst much confusion, the States were called.
The result was as follows:

GEN. AVERILL,S CAVALRY OPE.
RATIONS.

New YORK, June 10.-The Times has an ac-
count of Gen. Averill's operations in the expe-
dition sent out to distract the attention of Nor
gan and other rebel commanders from the ex-
petition under Gen. Crook.
In this Averill appears to have been highly
successful. He kept Morgan with 5000 men
way to encounter Morgan, and though out
numbered two to one, he found it necessary to
make stand and fight. For hours the gallant
little command withstood assault after assault,
holding their ground as firm as a rock until
dark Averill then moved off, Morgan not
aeeming it advisable to follow, and eventually
mishes and meeting a force Of /. 500 under
Jenkins, whom he danked. This command
was entirely outwitted.
