A correspondent of the Mobile Tribune, referring to the meaning of the recent act passed by the Confederate Congress, says: I am an Alabamian, but still if there is a doubt let us all take the oath. Just as soon as the books are open I intend to take it, and then I can have my own opinions of those who do not take it, and act accordingly. Upon which the Nashville Gazette comments as follows: "Alabama" talks sense. We shall imitate his wholesome example in voluntarily taking the oath to support the Constitution of the Confederate States, and should be glad to see every true Southern man do the same. Such a course will be at least one of the means of separating the wheat from the chaff. We are not willing to wait to be reported, thus affording room for suspicion as to our loyalty to the cause of Southern independence. Socks for the army. The Vicksburg Whig says that nearly ev

A correspondent of the St. Louis Republican (abolition) communicates the following to that paper, dated Rolla, Mo., Aug. 21: The present stampede from Southwest Missouri no doubt exceeds anything of the kind in modern times. No one who has not been an eye-witness can form any correct idea of it. As the train came on I fell in with it at Lebanon, the place of my residence, and continued with it to this place. I learn from those who came in with it from Springfield, that on the army returning after the battle on the evening of the 10th inst., it was determined to retreat towards Rolla, in order to save the baggage train, which is said to be worth one and a half millions. Accordingly orders were given to that effect, and the march commenced about 3 o'clock A. M., the large baggage train moving off in advance, while the main army was kept in

iment of men whom he supposed, from their uniform, to be Siegel's regiment, advancing towards him at right angles. Their Colonel asked the Captain where the enemy were? He replied by pointing in the direction of the retreating rebel forces, and immediately commenced aligning his company upon the right of the regiment. All at once Captain Clayton mistrusted that he was in a trap, and looking towards the Colonel, he recognized an old acquaintance, being no less than Colonel Clarkson, of Kansas-Border-Ruffian notoriety, ex- Postmaster of Leaven-worth city. The Captain then gave the command, "right oblique, march." When he had moved his company a distance of about thirty paces from the enemy's line, the Adjutant of the rebel regiment rode rapidly towards him, and commanded him to halt. He did so, and immediately brought his company to an "about face," fronting the enemy's line. The Adjutant asked, "What troops are these?" "I belong to the First Kansas Regiment," replied the Capt

moment a Sergeant of Capt. Clayton's company thrust his bayonet through the body of the Adjutant, pinning him to the ground and leaving his gun sticking in his body. The Captain then ordered his men to run for their lives, which they did. The daring exploit of the steamer Harmony. A correspondent of the Portsmouth Transcript writes from Camp Grimes, August 31st, as follows: We were much surprized yesterday to see the little steamer Harmony steaming past out post, bound up James river. She was guilty dreaded with and appeared to be quite crowded with persons. The most prominent feature aboard, however, was a large gun, mounted on a high carriage, and poking his head candidly over the how of the steamer.--Numerous were the opinions expressed as to the object of her mission, and we were startlingly a maned to see her pass such an effective blockade as Old Abe has been pleased to establish at Newport News. We fully expected every moment to witness a shot from the Sav

so the Harmony got mad and fired again, which drew a shot from the enemy. The engagement now became general. The crew of the H. appeared to be very cool and unexcited, while the Savannah seemed to be so mad that she tried to tear herself to pieces by firing broadsides at our steamer. All of her firing proved of no avail, and the shots which were fired from the enemy's battery at Newport News shared the same fate. There were crowds of spectators on our shore, composed of Georgia and Louisiana soldiers, besides ourselves, and numerous were the hisses given as the shots of the enemy fell far short of our gallant little steamer, while long and loud were the shouts as each of our missiles fell near the ship of the heartless invaders. Several of the Harmony's shots were not seen to fall and we are forced to the conclusion that they struck the ship. In coming back, our steamer appeared to run so close to the enemy that we greatly feared for her safety, but were glad to see

on the evening of the 10th inst., it was determined to retreat towards Rolla, in order to save the baggage train, which is said to be worth one and a half millions. Accordingly orders were given to that effect, and the march commenced about 3 o'clock A. M., the large baggage train moving off in advance, while the main army was kept in the rear for defence. By daylight the whole army, Home Guards, citizens, families, &c., had left the place, leaving the heretofore populous little city of Springfield almost without inhabitants. The march was continued during the entire day, making about twenty-five miles. And when night came on, and not being able to reach a suitable place for encampment, a halt was made on the roadside till next morning. The next day the march was continued five miles to the Meango, when the army encamped and remained till the next day. Here, I understand, refreshments were taken in the way of a meal for the first time after the battle on Saturday, making some thre
