Recruits for 1Kb Regiment. Tho editor of the Lafayette Courier Bays: "we arc in rcceipt of a private dispatch from Col. L. Wallace, at Cumberland, in which he states that officers of his regiment are now en route for Indiana to recruit for the three years serviee.v 5

Col. "Wallace willdoubtlcsshavea recruiting office in Crawfordsviile before the close of the week. Hold yourselves in readiness boys ifyou wish to connect yourselves with the gallant old Zouave Regiment.

C'ol. Lcvr. Wallace Captures a Rebel Major. "We see from the Indianapolis Journal of Tuesday, that tho rebel Major spoken of in Monday's dispatch, as being captured by the 11th Indiana Regiment at Romney, was not taken captive by the regiment, but by Col. Wallace in person. Capt. Fahnostock, of same regiment, in a letter to a friend in Indianapolis, states that tho robel Major came near tho ground where the regiment was resting, mistaking the Indiana boys for some of the chivalry from the ''sacred soil'' of "Old Virginuy" that "never tires.'' lie advanced far enough to discover his error, and too fur to retreat. Col. "Wallace, who was some distance from the body of his men, commanded him to surrender. The rebel said he hoped 110 harm would be done him, as lie was on his way to get a doctor to come and sec his mother who was very sick! Col. Wallace told him bethought his mother was better by that, time, and ho need look no further for a physician.

Tho rebel Major was disarmed and talc en to Cumberland, when the Zouaves marched from Romney. We presume the poor fellow is in great distress because he couldn't find a doctor for his sick mother!

Tlie Eighth and Tenlli Indiana Regiments on tlie March. .The 8th and 10th Indiana Regiments left camp at Indianapolis yesterday (Wednesday,) at 12 o'clock. The telegraphic news of last night from Cincinnati states that they passed through that city at 8 o'clock, en route for Virginia. They were escorted from the depot by two regiments of the reserve militia, to Fifth street market space, where they partook of refreshments. Fourth street was densely crowded, and the troops were enthusiasticly cheered.

Trouble in Missouri—-Gov. Jackson put to Flight. It is reported to the St. Louis Democrat, by a reliable messenger, that the advance guard of Missouri cavalry, when on march near Independence on Tuesda}", were suddenly surprised by a large body of Stalo troops, well armed, who were stationed upon an eminence commanding their passage. The cavalry fired upon the rebels, killing four of them, and upon a return fire, three Federal troops were killed. Thorebols retreated. Later news by stwo reliable persons who had just arrived from Boonville, at St. Louis, says that Gen. Lyon attacked and completely routed the rebels at the former place, killing three hundred, and taking six hundred prisoners. Gen. Price, a rebel, is reported mortally wounded. The loss of the Federal troops is said to bo seventeen. A company of Col. Eoernstein's command had arrived at St. Louis, bringing with them a large quantity of powder, taken from one of Gov. Jackson's private depots, in the interior.

The rebels in Bootio. Callaway and Howard counties, aro said to be fleeing tho country. Gov. Jackson and his rpbel followers, have also left for parts unknown.

District Prosecuting Attornies. -•The Indiana Journal says "wo have receivod several letters inquiring whether the bill introduced into the House at the Last session of tho Legislature, giving a salary to District Prosecuting Attornies, ever became a law. We take this mode of answering that tho bill did pass, and with an emergency clause which put it into, operation at once, though without the usual requirement of publication in tho Indianapolis papers,"

Hurrah for our old friend II. II. Stil'well.'This sets him all right 011 tho goose.

J&3T Col. Lane received from Capt. .Elston a few days since, a rebel hat or cap, captured at the engagement at 'Romnev., It was "Sam Roes' Hat.''.

Sew Accommodation. Mr. H.

All articles hereafter purchased at this establishment, if so desired, will be delivered at the residence of the purchaser, in any part of the city, free of I charge. Air. At. keeps a full and coripletc first class stock of Family Groceries and we aro constrained to believe, sells them as low as the lowest.

Also, all kinds of Country Produce, constantly on hand.

Farmers to the Rescue The ladies of Crawfordsviile have recently received an order or application from the Commissary General of this State, to make one hundred or more Ilaveloeks, 01* coverings for the caps of our boys—Compari}- "I," 11th Regiment, under command of Col. Wallace—who are now so nobly battling for our country and laws. This call has boen promptly responded to, and a box containing the same shipped for Indianapolis yesterday (Wednesday) morning to be forwarded immediately from thence to Cumberland, Maryland. Xow farmers, all wo ask is, that }*ou aid us in raising the funds requisite to defray the expense incurred for material used in making them—the amount is §25. Any amount for this purpose may be left at Campbell. Galey & Ilarter's, or at tho Drug Store of Brown & Co. Numerous calls have been made on the citizens of our town for kindred objects and on many of whom wo do not wish to again call and we feel confident that tho appeal now made will be promptly responded to when, for so small a pittance we can furnish our soldiers a protection, whicli may prevent sun-stroke, and otherwise provo beneficial. Furthermore, the ladies of our city offer their services to assist in making the same for Capt. Carr's company and doubt not the ladies of Ladoga, Waveland and Yountsville, will do likewise.

TIIE SOLDIERS FRIEND.

Dispatches from Col. Wallace. The Indianapolis Journal of Monday publishes tho following special dispatch from Col. Lew Wallace, commander of the 11th regiment at Cumberland. Maryland, in regard to the fight at Romney: "After the fight at Romney the rebels did not ralley and return. The}' ran sixteen miles towards Winchester before they stopped. So far from my retreating, I brought into camp at Cumberland their tents, valuable arms, uniforms and medical stores, without leaving an}*thing behind. The rout was total. Next daythere were seven funerals in the town. Wo killed a Captain, an ex-mcmber of the Ligishtture, and took one of their Majors prisoner. 1 send you this to stop the infamous secession slanders about my retreating, started by some cowardly scoundrels in Alexandria. My bo}*s aro entitled to all honor. They won it bravely. Let them enjoy it. They havo not forgotten Buena Vista.

"Where are KenWell Au-

The Question tncky's Sympathies" swered.

The Frankfort Commonwealth says: The States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa, contain a large proportion of Kentuckians.— Where Kentucky has one son in the Secession States, she has twenty in the Northwest. Eight out of ten families in this State havo a tic of blood binding them to the great Northwest.— One of tho Secession cant phrases is, "Kentucky sympathises with the South"—meaning the rebel States.— We deny it.

She has no interests in tho cotton States—no tie of either kindred or "interest. to bind her to them. What sympathy has cottondom evinced for Kentucky? When has it ever consulted tho interests or feeling of Kentucky? Has it not always shown the utmost indifference to our wishes?— Did it not treat our most earnest entreaties with contempt, and reply to our advice by threats to "drag" us out of tho Union?

Kentucky does not sympathize with Secession nor with Secessionists. She is loyal to the Union and the Constitution, and growing more so evenday.

False Rumors.

Several rumors, wholly unfounded, have been circulated at a distance, both calculated and intended to injure the business of this Office, and to prevent persons from subscribing for the Whig. One report is, that we have determined not to publish after the first of June, and another is, that we are going to remove to tho North.— We are going to stay in Knoxville and no where else, and when we remove from tho dwelling we own and occupy it will be to the Cemetery hi this vicinity, As to the paper, we shall edit and publish it until our office is destroyed, or our wind pipe is cut!

Letter from Dr. T. W. Fry.

("AMP MCGINNIS, I

CUMBERLAND, MD., June 13,-1861.

ED. JOURNAL: Yesterday was a memorable day for the Indiana 11th. About dark 011 the previous night,oightof our companies left for tho purpose of routing a nest of rebels collected in Romney, Hampshire county, Virginia. They went 20 miles by railroad left this point about 12 o'clock at night and came in viow of tho rebel camp about 7 o'clock next morning. The novvs of their approach had been borne 011 tho wings of tho wind to the commanding officers of the traitors. They had planted their cannon and collected a thousand men to resist tho attack. They had bragged and boasted their ability to beat back tho Lincoln hordes with all possible case, but at sight they fled like deer. The bridge was about three quarters of a mile on this side of tho town the rebel battery was planted 011 a hill commanding the bridge and the road. Tho first firing commenced about one and a half miles from the town, by tho scouting parties. Tho rebel pickets fired and fled the Zouaves moved boldly on against firing from the rebels and from houses. The artillery soon took to their heels, then followed the troops like frightened sheep up and over the mountains away, away they went, heltcr skelter, up and down such scampering and running has seldom been witnessed. Some 8 or 10 rebels wore killed and some wounded. My assistant, Dr. J. C. Thompson, cut a ininie ball from the back of a rebel, and has it now in his pocket. We captured all their tents, one of which I use, and a large ono is-now in process of repair for a hospital. I have their medicine chest, bandages, cloths, &c., &c. Boxes of provisions, uniforms, hats, caps, pompooms, a few guns, 10 horses and various other articles of minor importance, were taken. ValStone has a volume of Homer's Odyssy published in 1814, by Mr. Fry. Major Wm. S. Vandivcr was taken prisoner and is now confined in camp he was in our camp last Tuesday, and since that has been furious in his denunciation, and using every possible means to impress Union men into tho rebel service but for Col. Wallace he would have been shot. When arrested he was riding with great speed and professed to be in haste for a Doctor to see his mother. He is very much alarmed, and says tho course pursued by our troops was very different from what was expected, and will prove to the people the error of their crfuse, tmi lie is now pleading for life and liberty. We havo no confidence in their professions, traitors are lost to all sense of honor and honesty, they will say or do anything for the accomplishment of their diabolical purposes. We have a large number of letters and papers implicating certain persons. Several shots were fired from a very fine house and our soldiers returned the fire, severely riddling the house considerably —then went in, found a nice hot breakfast good butter and rnilk with ice, and several warm loaves of bread there was a fine assortment of good things to eat and drink, and as our men wore almost starved they helped themselves very liberally. The table furniture was handsome, silver forks, &c., &c. A. fine watch was found upon one of the tables ono of the soldiers wrote a very polite note to the lady owner, saying that they came not to steal or plunder, but to crush out rebellion, signed his name in full wTith his kindest regards to the lady. Everything was paid for, to those who would receive, some furnished provisions and would receive no pay. A spy was taken on'our return and is now confined in camp he is very much alarmed and is a strong Union man, under existing circumstances what he has been is yet to be proved.

The march was a severe one, not often surpassed in military history. The men bore tho march like heroes there was 110 flinching, 110 faltering, but a bold onward movement, fearless as voteran troops. Those who remained behind were as eager for the fight as if it had been a mere excursion for pleasure. Thomas, now Lieut. Fry, got tho colonel's sword Miller, the student, got nino of his shirts, but nothing belonging to Union men was touched, and nothing was brought away but articles that belonged to the troops. The officers and men behaved with the dignity, and moderation and humanity of patriotic, loyal and civilized soldiers. They endeavored to produce impressions on tho minds of the people, that they came not for plunder, not to desolate the country, not to trample on their rights or oppress them with despotic power they wished to show that they came to put down rebellion, to sustain the Government and hang traitors if need be. My impression is, the Union feeling is growing but we ought to havo at least two more regiments at this point. We are in advance of the army 100 miles, and not a night passes that some of us do not havo to go out to repel the rebels and .prevent them froin burning bridgvwffics. Two companies left last night at

3 o'clock and are etill out, but we are! would have been folly to attempt to

in telegraphic communication with them. Thousands visit ua daily and welcome us as friends, but some scowled as if fired with demoniac passion.

The scenery here is beautiful beyond description—mountains towering towards the skies in every direction streams rushing through gorges the varied foliage of the mountain forest the clear waters of the Potomac, all unite in presenting a magnificent and charming scenery. Very little sickness in camp. Our Crawfordsviile boys are all well and stood the march remarkably well. On the night of the march to Romney, reports came that 500 Virginians would attack the camp, and everything was put in readiness to receive them With hot shot and minie balls, but they came not. Gen. Patterson has already sent his thanks and compliments for the gallantry of our soldiers in attacking and routing the rebels. Yours,

T. W. FRY

Surgeon 11th Regiment.

P. S.—I have just read a letter from Mr. Gilmer, the owner of the fine house in Romney, he was taken prisoner, but hoisted a white flag and protested that he was a Union man. As he was old, tho Colonel had morcy and left him but his letter proves him a rank secessionist. He may be dealt with yet.

Bloody Work at \*ienna.

Additional Force Sent Vienna.

Against

WASHINGTON, June 18.

Late last night Gen. Scott received the following dispatch: "I left camp according, to instructions with the first Ohio regiment, 6G8 strong, and went on an expedition to Falls Church, to patrol the roads in that direction. I then proceeded to Vienna with four companies, company E. Capt. Paddock, company C, Lieut. Woodward, and afterwards joined by Capt. Pease, company G. Capt. Baily and company H. Capt. Hazlett, total 275 men. On turning the curve within a quarter of a mile of Vienna, we were fired upon by raking masked batteries of, I think, three guns, with shell, round shot and grape, killing and wounding the men on the platform and on the cars. When the train stopped I could not on account of damage to some part of the running machinery draw the train out of the fire, the enemy being in the rear. We left the cars and retired to the left of the train through the woods. Finding that the enemy's batteries were sustained by what appeared to be a regiment of infantry and cavalry, which force we havo since understood to bo 1,500 South Carolinians. Weiell back along the railroad, throwing out skirmishers on both sides. This was about seven P. M. Thus we returned slowly bearing off our wounded for five miles to this point which we reached at 10 o'clock. ..

Thr following is a lijst of tho casualties: In Capt Hazlott's company H, two known to be killed, three wounded and five missing Capt. Paddock's company E, one officer slightly wounded company C, Captain Pease, two missing. The engineer when the men left the cars instead of retiring slowly as I ordered, detached his engine with one passenger car from the rest of the disabled train, and abandoned us, running to Alexandria, and we have heard nothing of him since. Thus we were deprived of a rallying point and of all means of conveying the wounded who had to be carried on litters. We wait here holding the road for reinforcements. The enemy did not pursue.— Ascertained that the enemy's force at Fairfax Court House, four miles from Vienna, is now about 4,000. When all tho enemy's batteries opened upon us, Major Hughey was at his station on the foremost platform car. Col. McCook was with me in one of the passenger cars. Both of these officers, with others of the commissioned officers, and many of Lbe men behaved most coolly under this galling fire which we could not return, and from batteries which we could not flank or turn from the nature of the ground. The approach to Vienna is through a deep cut in tho railroad. In leaving the cars and before they could rally, many of my men lost their haversacks, but brought off all their muskets except it may be a few that were destroyed by the enemy's first fire or lost with the killed. Signed.

ROBERT C. SCHENCK, Brig.Gen'I.

A special to the Herald says: The attack at Vienna commenced shortly after 7 o'clock P. M. The late hour accounts for the failure of the enemy to pursue, doubtless expecting a strong Federal force near. Gen. Schenck threw himself boldly between tho batteries and his men, giving his orders in a cool and deliberate manner, and telling the boys that Ohio expected them to do their duty: If' the train had advanced two yards further the loss of life would have been terrible. and the on tire expedition made prisoners by the enemy.

A special to the World says: It is untrue that no previous reconnoissance had been mado when the fight took place at Vienna *. The same train had not only proceeded some three or four miles beyond the .scene of the conflict some days before, but our scouts had been over the very ground on which tho batteries were erected.

The batteries consisted of 6-poun-ders, which fired seven rounds, the first being most destructive, scattering round shot and grapo into the passenger and platform cars, which contained four companies of the First Ohio regi ment.

Tne battery was on a hill almost perpendicularly over the track, and it

[Special Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette.] GRAFTON, June 14.

Two more bridges, one quite an important one, were burnt last night, between Cumberland and Harper's Ferry,by the rebels. It was ascertained last night, that 500 Virginia rebels wore on the march towards Piedmont, intending to burn the bridges there.—• The Indiana Zouaves instantly moved from Cumberland to meet them. The rebols learned this movement and halted. Our scouts reported them, this afternoon within nine miles of Piedmont but no attack was^lnado up to ten o'clock to-night. Tho Zouaves are ready and waiting to l^eceive them.— The Marylanders havo been enlisting at Cumberland in the Zouaves. There were seventeen Maryland recruits yesterday.

The Ninth and Seventh Indiada regiments concentrated to-night at Phillippi. A portion of the Ninth has just moved from Grafton. Army wagons have also gone in that direction.

Scarcity of Salt, Lead and Leather at the South—Gun-Boats Building at Louisville—A Nashville Pirate—Southern Free Negroes Ordered to go to Work.

LOUISVILLE, June 14.—The Southern papers advise the farmers to save everything in the shape of fodder, wheat, rye and oat straw. They aro very much in want of salt, printing paper, lead and leather.

James Stevens of this city is making arrangements to build gun-boats for the Government.

The Nashville Patriot states that a party, with the boat Red Revenger, on the Cumberland river, had applied for letters of marque.

The custom house at Atlanta, Ga., has been abolished, and one is to be established near the northern boundory of Tennessee.

The Memphis Avalanche of the 10th, advises the free negroes to go to work on the entrenchments at Randolph, and says they will bo forced if they do not volunteer. It adds the remark that those who volunteer will be discharged as soon as the fortifications are finished, and those forccd to enter will be detained during the war.

Letter From Albert S. Wliite. WASHINGTON, June 14, 1861. MR. LINOLE:—The telegraph anticipates any public news I might be disposed to communicate, such as that which has just reached us of tho evacuation of Harper's Ferry, and the destruction of the Potomac bridges and any confidential hints from head quarters it would not bo becoming to publish. It is not improper however to repeat a general remark mado to me this morning by Gen. Scott, that tho time had not yet arrived for a decisive demonstration he had in contemplation. This was drawn out by my urgent request that ho would assign our 10th, and 12th Indiana Regiments to some post of honorable duty.

It was utterly impossible that every corps of throe months men could be placed where laurels could be won.— Our State has already vindictated her wounded reputation so injustly impugned in the Mexican War—and the 10th and 12th regiments by every just inference have a right to share with their more fortunate comrades of the other regiments the honors they have so nobly won. I am strongly in hopes Gen. McClelland will call for them in his expedition against tho secessionists now encamped at Charleston on the Kenhawa, which will be the last action in the drama of restoring Western Virginia, and probably almost simultaniouswith the civil triumph soon to be displayed at Wheeling which will bring entire Virginia within our solar system.

The wisdom and energy of Gov. Morton assisted by his military staff and those other educated advisers Generals Morris, Reynolds, &c., have combined with the patriotic ardor and achievmcnts of our citizens and soldiers to brighten the escutcheon of Indiana.

When to-day I heard Gen. Scott characterize the movements of Col. Wallace upon Romney so prompt and successful without the aid of guides, and in advance of the report of scouts, as an act of signal gallantry, I felt that tho "Eleventh" who had thus proved themselves kindred to the 7th, 8th and 9th, were no less so than the 10th and 12th. From the shortness of their time our three months regiments cannot expect positions in campaigns assigned to the three years troops

take it. The troops were therefore part already made, armed and equipforced to make a hasty retreat. The names of the killed at Vienna are: Company G, John Barnes, of "YVaverly Ohio Bant Sullivan, Phillip Strode, Thos. Fenton, James Smith and Eugeno Burk Company H, T. Menor, and Geo. Morrison. Tho wounded are Volmer, company G, fatally David Gules, company G, hand shot off Lanmon company G, badly Pigman company H, badly.

CAIRO, 19.

W. II. Russell correspondent of the London Times arrived from the south to-day, saj*s nothing in regard to southern affairs but complains that his correspondence has been tampered with by the rebels,

and

at

distant points. l! Of the six additional regiments now authorizd from Indiana three will be officered here, and three upon the nomination of Gov. Morton. In the organization of these regiments preference is clearly due, if they desire the transfer, to the three and twelve months troops already organized, most of whom are now completely organized and equipped. Without any opportunity to consult Gov. Morton on that subject I have no doubt he will so arrange it. The concentration of the confederate forces at a single point in Virginia, threatening our capital may call for the resistance of levies on our1stV.

pod. /The field officers of the three 3*ears'troops I am told by the Secretary of War, will be appointed with strict regard to qualifications without reference to States and brigades will be formed in the same way, not necessarily from contiguous regiments.

It is right however when the proper materials exists that some respect should be had to State pride, and numerical proportion in the army. Gen. Joseph J. Reynolds already a Brigadier by State authority and strongly recommended by Gov. Morton for conformation by the President, I have informal^assuranees from head quarter, shall receive that appointment without delay. Science, skill and experience in the leaders are necessary safeguards for an army. And I will not, I think be overlooked by the appointing power.

Yours truly. A. S. WniTK.

It devises after the payment of his debts, the residue of his property, without specification, divided equally, one half to the two sons, the other half to his wife, which latter and Daniel P.

Anson Burlingame to go to China. WASHINGTON, June 14.—Hon. Anson Burlingame has been appointed Minister to China, in view of the refusal of Austria to receive him.

The last on dit is to the effect that Hon. Emerson Etheridge of Tennessee will be appointed resident minister to Portugal, in place of James E. Harvey, recalled.

The New York Tribune is informed that Mr. Henry Spencer, U. S. Consul at Paris, is a sympathizer with the Secessionists. Ho recently ordered a gentlemen from his office who called the rebels by the right name traitors. Harvey's case shows that there is an imperative necessity for examining into the character and principles of all our foreign agents.

Missouri.

Governor JACKSON having fired off his pronuneiamento and called for 50,000 troops to drive out the Federal forces, has betaken himself to the recessos of Arrow Rock, up the Missouri River, where he probably expects to earn an honest living by confiscating all steamboats that vonture to navigate the river.

The indications are that Cien. LYON. whose prompt movements show that ho is equal to the occasion, will be after him. The prompt capturo and hanging of Gov. JACKSON is absolutely necessary to show that the Government means to suppress rebellion. An}*thing milder than that would only be tampering with it.— Cin. G-az.

How the Rebels Learned the Government's Plans—Confirmation of the Evacuation of Harper's

Ferry. The New York Tribune says the particulars of the late expedition were communicated to the rebels by a traitor in the camp, who has been arrested.

The Post's dispatch says Scott has received confirmation of the evacuation of Harper's Ferry, tho rebels having gone to Leesburg, Winchester, Stras burg, and thence to Manassas.-

THE PEOPLE'S VOICE IN ENGLAND.— A private letter from London, received by the Fulton says.

The articles in tho Times about Amer ica are receivod here with disfavor— and Russell's letters especially. As to the wish in tho South to come under the British rule, the thing is laughed at, for the first demand would bo the extinction of slavery. The inconveniencies of a strict blockade of the Southern ports, arc not even discussed in England, vital though the question is to the cotton interest.

'$!3r Henry A. Wise ha been appointed a Brigadier General in the rebel army, and assigned the command of the department of Western Virginia but he will have some difficulty in taking command of his department, insomuch as Gen. McClelland is at work in that direction.

Kentucky Provisions at Manassas Gap. The following is from the Philadelphia Northern American:

A gentleman who came from Manassas Gap—not Junction—on Saturday last, gives us some decisive information. He visited the camp at that point, and says, in point of supply of provisions, it is filled like a Cincinnati pork house. Barrels of first class provisions are stored there by thousands, while eighteen hundred live cattle, driven over from Kentucky, arrived there when ho left.

Our informant says that the rebels have perfected ample arrangements in Kentucky for an uninterrupted supply of food and forage. Manassas-Gap, he says, is fortified into immensestrength, and can be taken only by great bloodshed.

From the Alton ^Illinois) Courier/

Prof. Wood's Hair Restorative. We cannot too earnestly recommcnd to the attention of our ngod friends, or other." who hava been so unfortunate as to lose their hair, the restoring properties of Profes-'or Wood's wonderful discovery. Certificates of its efficacy are constantly coming in, and a village can hardly be found in the West, where living witnesses cannot be found to certify from experience-that It will not only restore gray hair to its original color, but will restora to the bold-head the locks of youth and beauty, thus furnishing an effectual autidotc for tho ravages of time and disease. Among those who cer tify positively to its efiicacv in accomplishing its work, is Judge Breese, of this Circuit, together with other responsible witnesses. Oroy headed bachelors and widowers who desire to inuku their market, and all others afflicted as above described, deserve to bear their misfortunes without sympathy, if they will not avail themselves of the offered remedy.
