occurred nearly west of Fort Phil Kearney on the
9Th inst. Thirty citizens, and as many soldiers
under Mai Powell left the Fort for the purpJse of
gathering fuel, and when within five miles OF the
Fort band of $50 savagcs made an attack
them. The whites made desperate resistance,
but the Indians, after killing It. Jessup and 9TH
ers, and woundng two prlvates succeeded in
stsmpeding the cattle.
The whites then took position behind breast
work of wagon boxes. The savages eucrced them
with wild yells, and continued TO fight with fend-
ish desperation. The whites fought the Indians
three hours, killing and wounding great many.
The battle continued until Major Smith, with
two companies of U. s. regulars and two howit-
zers came to the rescue from the fort. when the
Indians retreated, going northeast and leaving
five dead bodies the field. Maj. Powell
ports the total loss Of the sayages at 60 killed and

New YORK, Aug. IA.
Mexican advices by way of Havana, Aug. 8,
state that Mosquera had been found in the capital
aud that Santa Anna had been conveyed to Vera
Cruz. Strong efforts are being made TO save Gen.
O'lIoran from sentence Of death, as he has been
uniformly kind to Americans in the city aud to
citizens generally during the ierocious reign of
MosquerA.
Salm Salm was in prison at the capital, aud
would probably be shot. as he incautously showed
his commission as a general, although he only
served as Colonel.
Gen. Escobedo's doctor has heavy claim for en-
balming Maxilailan's body, and it is said it will
be held for payment. t3.
LONDON, Aug. 10.
Advces from Shanghae give the following ac-
count Of the conflict between two steamers OF the
American squadron in the Chinese waters and the
pirates Of the Island of Formosa. The United
States authorities having received neither satsfac-
tioa nor apology for the murderer OF the crew of
the American bark Rover the Hartford and the
Wyoming are ordered to the scene of the outrage,
the Island of Formosa. They sailed early in June,
and arriving oil the shore, a demand was made for
the surrender OF the mnrders which was not com
piled with In the meantime it became apparent
that the natives preparing for fight, and the
shore was vigorously sheled by both vessels. Sew
eral boatloads of sailors aud marines subsequently
effected a landing, and a sharp fight ensued with
the Formosaus, lasting over five hours. The heat
was intense. Fifteen of the officers and men
reported to have been sunstruck. 1t. Mackensie,
one OF the landing party, who was shot died OF
his wounds AT nlghtiall the lighting party was

appeared. The Hartford and Wyoming then

UNIoNIsM AND UNIoN MEN IN KENTUCKY. A
Lexington (ky.) correspondent of one Of the Gin
cinnat papers writes thus despairingy of the pros
poet for Unionists in that State now that. Helm
and his rebel associates have been elected to ad-
minister the State government
''No number of troops or the vigilance o COM
mandor, however great, save the spotted I'M
ion men, unless the judges who mock justice, and
the civil officers of all grades who believe it no
crime 10 kill Union man, be removed from pow
er and the offices of the State put into the hands
OF lust and loyal men. The only question that
now remains TO be settled is whether State lines
can make any difference in the crime of treason
Whether the people OF Kentucky can be absolute
~ disloyal TO government that requires the peo-
pie Of all its other States TO be loyaly The first
ntimaton of how the all-important question will
be decided has already been received in the rejee-
ton Of the rebel Congressman from the National
halls, and the rebels themselves, at heart be-
lieve that the whole matter will ultimately be- de-
cidod in favor Of the loyal men, They see in the
Unonists their future masters, and hence they
hate them with hatred that knows nO limit Poor
old distressed Kentucky; we wish boodshed
would cease in her borders, and peace and good
order return to the most beautiful and fertile State
in the Union But she can never have order or
peace while rebels rule, aud the shortest way is
the best way to end that rule, aud with it the dis
sensi6ns disorders that now distress US, I'LL our
homes with mourning, and retard the prosperity OF
our great and glorious Commonwealth
