and Secretary of War, on the resignation of
f anner Walker, giving some reasons for re-j
signing. !!<• s>vs h- h ■ -!>• < n over-dsugbe I ,
by appointment of young officers, [tie ranked |
in obi service.J lie says the Government was
not content with putting her own countrymen
over him, but brought from New York, Gen. i
Lovell, who was an office holder in New York j
when the battle of Manassas was fought, and ,
made him Maj.' General over Southern men,f
and to cap the climax, Walker’s brigade has j
been taken from him, and one of hj^ junior |
Colonel.- made BiigadierGcneral.
He concludes his letter by saying that one
would have supposed that an Executive, who
has himself been a soldier, would have scorn
ed to have wounded the sensibilities of an old
tried soldier. The sacred cause for which i
drew my sword, and for which I will fightfor
in my native State, but i will not condescend
to submit any longer to insults and indignities
of the Executive. Secretary of War replies
that, it is due him in self-respect, to remark
on the impropriety of Brig. General Walker
using tlie War Department for conveying dis
respectful and insulting comments on the ac
tion of the President of the Confederacy. He
says the President’s sole offense consists in
not sending for Walker to be made Maj. Gen
eral, and that there is no question of promo
tion involved iri appointing general officers.
Tiia law expressly vesting appointing power
in the President, and not to be disparaged by
any officer, whatever may have been his ser
vices.
Walker’s resignation accepted.
Late New York papers report the trial pro
gressing against the crew of the Privateer
Savannah. Mr. Longue defended the prison
'ers. Among the grounds of defense, urged that
the prisoners were in service of what they con
sidered a defaeto government. He objected to
the jurisdiction of the present Court, contend
ing that when the prisoners were taken by the
Minnesota to Hampton Roads, they were with
in jurisdiction of Va., and the only place
where they could be legally tried. Thu case
will be resumed the following day.

Nashville, Nov. 1.— A number of promi
nent citizens, of Southern Kentucky, met at
Russellville, on Monday tho 28th, for the pur
pose of consulting in relation to the course
that should be adopted for the future. About
forty counties were represented. Conference
remained in session, with closed doors, until
Wednesday, when the secrecy was removed.
A series of resolutions were adopted, reciting
the unconstitutional and oppressive acts of
the Legislature in proclaiming revolution, and
providing for a Sovereign Convention to meet
n Russellville on the 18th of November, and
recommending the organization of county
guards to be placed in service, and a Hag of
the Confederate States. They pledge resist
ance to the federal and State taxes for the
prosecution of the war, on tho part of the

Special despatch to the St. Louis Dotnocr t,
dated Jefferson City, October 28th, reports
that an important expedition left there, for
what point is not stated.
The Washington correspondent of the New
York World, of the 25th, saj's that, it now
seems to be a settled question that Gen. Fre
luout is to be superceded. Speculations is na
turally rife as to his successor. Gen. Hunter
-and Wool hare been named, but TFTs ;nost pro
bable that Hollick, who is now on his way
here from ban Francisco, will be ordered to
that department.
New York Tribune, in an article, says im
pression being created that Col. Baker ex
ceeded instructions, and did not retire as or
dered, when he found the enemy in overwhelm
ing strength. Capt. Young, of his Regiment,
says there was no possible retreat, save by
swimming the Potomac, only flats, which they
got over, but had been sunk. The disaster is
attributed to the want ®t‘ transportation. The
Ol der given by Gen. Slone to Col. Baker was
picked up with his hat, out of which it had ,
fallen, coverod with blood and brains.
It is reported in this city that horses and
mules of the army, around Washington, are •
on short allowance. It is not possible for the
railroad to keep the forage depot supplied, i
A presentiment ot‘ Col. Baker’s death came l
to him on Friday, at night In the morning <
he made his will. He told Mr. Ward that he i
should be killed in forty-eight hours, and t
asited him to take care or his body. His wife i
is cm her way to California. L
The Washington corespondent of the New !
Yoi k Herald sayst Full and true history of j |
file battle near Harrison’s Island ha; reached 1
us within the last hour (now comes the na*| ,
ked truth ui all its horrors) we have met with («
a sickeniifc mulse involving the lo:$ of (
nearly one thousand men killed, wounded I i
and mij3ing and many brave and skillful ofli- i c
accompanied by a series of ho-rrors uno- 1 \
flailed in any previous battle of this war. I j
" ' i
got the Colonel’s body to tb- island and then
looking to the Virginia shore saw such a
spectacle as no language c.in describe. Our
entire forces were, retreating, tumbling, roll
ing, leaping down the steep heights, the en
emy following murdering and taking prison
ers. Col. Devan left his command ami even
swam the river on horseback. Col. Cogswell
after much unavailing bravery, was wounded
and taken. The one boat in the A irginia
channel w as speedily -filled and sunk. Mus
kets, coats and everything was thiovvn aside
and all were desperately trying to escape.
Hundreds were drowned in the rapid current
and shrieks were added to the horror of
sounds and sights. Tue enemy kept up their
firing from the cliffs above; all was terror,
confusion and dismay. A captain of the 15th
Massachusetts at one moment charged gal
lantly up the hill, leading two companies who
still had their arms, against the pursuing
force. A moment later the same officer see
ing the hopelessness of the situation waved a
white handkerchief and surrendered the main
body of iiis regiment; other portions of the
column surrendered, but the rebels kept up
their fire upon those who tried to cross and
many not drowned in the river were killed in
swimming. Night came on, and at 8 o’clock,
p. m., all our band whose fortune it was to
return had landed on Harrison’s Island and
the fire from Virginia Heights had ceased.—
The rebels took all our guns but one. When
I left yesterday they shouted to us, telling us
to come over and take away our dead under a
flag of truce.
Special to the Missouri Democrat, dated
Tipton, Oct. 28, says a scout w'ho came into
Sedalia, Mo., yesterday, reported that Price
is moving for Springfield with his whole cpm
mand, where it is certain he intends to make
a stand. McCulloch’ is reported in Grand
Prairie with ten thousand men. Price’s men
are reported to be so dissatisfied with the
prospect of leaving the State, that they will
force him to make a stand; they say they are
State troops and that they, enlisted to fight in
the State and won’t go out of it without a
fight. The Secessionists offer to bet largely
that Price will give Fremont a fight and
whip him. Gen. Kinnedy who has just re
turned from Price’s army to Sedalia, reiter
ates the same and says that Price will have
more reinforcements than the government
dream3 of.
Gen. Lane entered Pleasant Hill, Mo., the
other day. After planting the United States
flag he called the citizens together and made
uuLtiiii a iu Wiucu uc turn ch-jiu uiat
that had been their protection and should be
still; so long as it remained here you are safe,
but if it is cut down, by the Eternal I will
return and burn your town. He then with
drew with his men, and although the inhabi
tants are all secessionists, and this occurred
two weeks ago, that flag is still there.
Large numbers of Secessionists are return
ing to this part of the country every.day aiid
their increasing exerts some alarm among
Union citizens who fear that as soon as the
troops leave they will renew their depreda
tions. A secessionist was heard to say in
Sedalia, the other day, that if the government
was going to send any more troops up there,
they had better keep two or three regiments
to guard them. Such notorious rebels as Dr.
Newland and Kennedy of Georgetown, who
have fought with Price in alf the battles
since Booneville, are allowed to return on
their parole. All quiet here.
The rumor is renewed again that Johnston
has come into Missouri from Tennessee, with
reinforcements for Price, and taken command
of his army. It does not receive the atten
tion, however, its importance would demand,
if true. Pickett’s 25th Indianians wer > fired
upon a few nights ag'd by returned secession
ists, it is supposed. Five hundred of the two
thousand Indiana regiments are sick.
A special despatch from St. Louis, dated
28th, to the Chicago Times, says, the Repub
lican has received the following fiom near
Bolivar. Bolivar like neatly all towns in
Southern, Mo., is almost entirely deserted;
stores closed and many houses abandoned.
Loss of Fremont's bodv guard in the charge
at Springfield, from six to eight killed and
fifteen to twenty wounded. Th -r» is nothing
further from Price and no news of Bon. Mc
Culloch. It is believed that a‘general en
gagement will occur within two weeks. Two
Union men who saw Fi ice’s army at Green
field were told that he had thirty-one thou
sand men.
Cairo, Oct. 28.—Col. Johnston c*f the 281.h
Illinois regiment, with a party of thirty men,

party of rebel cavalry and infantry twelve
miles from Fort Hill and had a sharp engage
ment, killing a captain and a lieutenant and
wounding quite a number. We lost not a

on Friday, sixty miles and captured fifty-two
rebels; also, u number of horses and some ar
my stores. Win. Robinson and a German
were arrested on Sunday; the former is a
spy and the latter a secessionist.
Nashville, Nov. 2.—The Bowling Green
correspondent of the Union & American re
ports the capture of twenty-five federals
near Owensboro’, Ky., by our cavalry, -yes

The Speculating Traitors.
We copy Ih; following sensible remarks
from the columns of the Columbia (Term.,)
Herald, of the 19th:
In his late Message, Gov. Harris calls the
attention of the Legislature to "live t.pndpnev
to monopoly and extortion, which exists lo
an injurious extent with a class of citizens,
who, intent upon the sordid purposes of gain,
are taking-advantage of the peculiar circum
stances of the times, to reap exorbitant profits
from the necessitiMBpf the Government and
the wants of the people.” The Governor ot
North Carolina has prohibited citizens from
selling articles of prime necessity to specula
tors, to be carried out of the State, and the
Governor of Louisiana has recommended a
similar policy. The North Alabamian recom
mends that until the Legislature of Alabama
meets, let public opinion do its utmost to dis
countenance these Shy lock operations, and to
put down the financial and mercantile con
spirators who are with us, and may justly be
classed with potitical tones,_
If there is a year’s supply on hand, raising
the price will not lengthen or shorten the sup
ply, and if one man has all, and the rest have
none, the public or the Government will seize
and divide it. so there is no use in speculating
and hoarding. There is more than a year’s
supply on hand and this will afford ample
time to produce more. Let capitalist instead
of investing their money in monopolies to ex
tort, put their money into producing and manu
facturing, so as to supply deficiencies before
the present stock is consumed, and the South
will become arich and thriving people. Some
legitimate regulation should be made to estop
speculators in their damning career, and to
put capital into manufacturing such supplies
as the times demand, or into the support of
the Government, for it is the first duty of
every one to make everything bend to the
establishment of our national prosperity.
