TnE Wheeling lNTELLlGESCER is re-
jUicing over the fact that the mills are
making nails from old nails. 1t will
take long time to make the trade be-
lieVe that there is any Sugar.Conting pro-
cesS or other dodge that will make good
nailsiro old nails, and the Wheeling
manufacturers had better keep dark on
the subject, unless they desire to leopard
ize the good name their wares have had.

credit from the discovery that old rails
need not 60 through the pudding furnace,

Manufacturer.
The above paragraph purports 10 DO a
Legitimate comment on something that
should have appeared in this paper. It
is, however, nothing OF the kind. Instead
Of that ii lisa fabrication Of the Nanutac.
turei own concoction, clear through, got
ten up to apparently afford the editor a
chance to fire Of something about Wheel.
ing nails that otherwise he would have
had no pretext for saying.
To begin with, the Wheeling mills are
not making nails out of old rails
not even one mill-and therefore
are not in any immediate dan
ger Of losing their long standing rep,
utstIon. There have been (all told sc
far as we know three kegs Of nails made,
in part and whole out Of old rails in this
city. They we're made under the super
vision Of Mr.. Lewis Jones, OF the 4fIn'
Mill, to test his own personal ideas il
regard to converting old rails into mai
plate, and we have not heard OF any o.
the mills following up the experiment
with anything further in the same direc
tion.
We had occasion once before to poin
out to the Manufacturer the injustice il
had done to Wheeling by very crud,
and reckless statement in ia editorial
columns, and we supposed that inasmuch
as the publishers might value the pa
ronage, II not the respect, Of the iron
men down this way, that they would bt
more careful in the future. But they dc
not seem to show any desire to chang
their unreliable style Of stating things,

FURTHER DETAILS OF THE Ff0HTINu.
SAN FRANCISCO, July S.-A press dis
patch from Portland says: Later re-
ports give further details Of the Gght
reported between Colonel Whipple's
command and aparty OF volunteers from
Mount ldado and Looking Glass, sub
Chief OF the hostiles, took place at Clear
Creek. Whipple gained m advantageous
position and summoned the Indians, 40
In number, to surrender. They refused,
and ran for their horses. The soldiers
and citizens charged, firing volley alter
volley into the savages, killing II. The
balance succeeded in reaching the horses
and escaped. On the second Howard
moved his company from Salmon river
to the table land on the trail near Canal
Landing, on Snake river. Here sixteen
Important ranches were discovered, con.
tanning large amount OF mems clothing,
cigars, flour, Indian blankets, &c. A
large band Of Indian horses and some ex.
ccellent beef were also captured. This will
be a serious loss to the Indians, and has
encouraged the troops now pursuing Jo.
seph's supposed track with all possible
speed. They are driving him towards
the trap prepared for his reception, and
every exit from the mountains is well
guarded.
