General Shelby was reported to be marching on the place. The Missourian turned upon the Yankees, whipped out the force at the post, and when Shelby arrived, they turned themselves, their arms, and everything belonging to the post, over to the Confederate general. In the engagement at Pilot Knob our forces captured three guns and Ewing's wagon train and its escort. They burnt the Iron Works and all the Government buildings, and made a complete smash of the records and arrangements for Lincoln's draft. Yankee accounts say that "the valleys and mountains are literally covered with rebels. " A raiding party had appeared within four miles of St. Louis. Bill Anderson, the guerrilla, had ambushed and killed one hundred of Johnson's six months men. Anderson says he intends to kill every man he finds wearing the uniform of the Yankees, they having killed his father, mother and sister.

thing known as the "Constitution of the United States." Mr. Hunt charged that Lincoln had violated his own pledges, in which he promised not to interfere with the rgard the people about him as of the sort he knew in other days, talked much of Lincoln's usurpations and violated State sovereignties. We apprehend his is like the he following from his speech: Now, one of the grounds on which I oppose Mr. Lincoln is, that he has usurped power and attempted to perform functions that are prarted and affectionate Butler, in a letter to "Deur Comeron, (of Pennsylvania, Lincoln's former Secretary of the of War,) in which he bids adieu to his Democratic friends and takes sides with Lincoln, essays to satisfy his old confreres that there is no difficulty in the way of their voting for Lincoln. He says if they elect McLincoln. He says if they elect McClellan they remit the country to the hands of Vallandigham, Voorhees, Wood, Seymour and others, who, if even they carry on the war, will disband two hundred thousan

The English journals have nothing new to advance upon American affairs. The New York correspondent of the London Times, writing on the 9th of September, says that the Republican party, seeing the danger which menaces it from divided councils, is rapidly closing up its ranks — and in contrasting the Republican claims of Lincoln and McClellan, he contends that between them there is little to choose on public grounds. The Times correspondent at Richmond, writing August 13th, says there never was a moment when more confidence, as to the result of the war, was entertained throughout Secessia. The New York correspondent of the Daily News says that "whoever may be elected in November, you have nothing to look for but war. There is no peace party that will weigh in the contest, and unless some great change come
They have not got half the pluck and self-denial that the South has. " That is all true enough. The Yankee will not fight one moment beyond the time that he finds it will pay. Ravage his fields and burn his house, and he submits at once. He would never come down here did he not expect to make money by the operation. Here follows something so genuinely Yankeeish that we cannot forbear to insert it: "Were it not for the Union--were we fighting to free the negroes — we wouldn't deserve to succeed; but I trust it is for a far more honorable cause — that of restoring the Constitution and the Supremacy of the Laws, and with it equal fights to both North and South!" And, like a genuine Yankee, he thinks that a brave, free people ought to be exterminated rather than not forced to take this Constitution. Captain Goverdale says the feeling against England is intensely bitter.--Why, we cannot conceive. England has surely been as subservient to Lincoln as she possibly could have bee
independence. Some there are who speak of reconstruction with slavery maintained; but are there any who would thus measure rights by property? God forbid. Would you see that boy, with a peach bloom on his cheek, grow up a serf — never to tread the path of honor unless he light the torch at the funeral pyre of his country? Would you see the fair daughters of the land given over to the brutality of the Yankees? If any imagine this would not be so, let him look to the declarations of Mr. Lincoln, the terms he offers; let him read the declarations of the Northern press; let him note the tone of the Northern people; and he will see there is nothing left for us but separate independence. Who now looks for intervention? Who does not know that our friends abroad depend upon our strength at home? That the balance is in our favor with victory, and turns against us with defeat, and that when our victory is unquestioned we will be recognized, and not till then. We must do our
