DBEW- Associate Edits Organisation of the MUlttaMajor Gen. John Love, of Indianapolis, appointed to organize and command the First Division of the Indiana Legion, to be formed in the counties bordering on the Ohio river, came down on Friday for the purpose of executing his trust. Gen. Love is a West Point graduate, has had expert. eL. e as an officer in the regular army, and in Western Virginia during the present war, as Brigade Major on General Morris' staff. He is a gentleman in every respect qualified tor the difficult task set before him. Great anxiety is felt in the more Northern portions of the State, in regard to the exposed position of the river counties, and a determination is expressed by Gov. Morton and others in authority, to do nil in their power to put the Border in a state of speedy and complete defense. On Saturday, Gen. Love met with the County Commissioners, and had a conference with them in regard to the organization of the militia, regularly under the law of last May. The Commissioners take hold of this matter with energy, and will do their duty in the premises. A meeting of Gen. Love with the Commissioners and the officers of companies now organized in the city, and other citizens, was arranged for evening, which va accordingly held. The meeting was informal. Gen. Love explained to those present the plan of organization of the militia of the State. He was here with full power to set the movement on foot, and to approve of the preliminary papers, &c, without the ne" cessity of their reference to Indianapolis, and the delay consequent thereon. Prompt-! measures are necessary, and the whole sys

sys- 1 1 in a j HBP

tem can be set in operation by him very short time, provided our citizens especially those most interested, thejA arty holders take hold with a will, and assist in these measures intended for the protection of property and lite. Gen. Love stated that $70,000j had been appropriated by the Legislature to aid in organizing the militia, and with the help of the fines that the organization had the power to impose on delinquents, asurtkient fund could be formed for all practical purposes. The uniform might be cheap, and the other expenses would be light. Gen. Love also expressed the opinion and it was roncurred in by the legal gentlemen present that the militia organized as proposed were not subject to an order to lesve the State, from the Governor. The Gcceral, after finishing his remarks, distributed copies of the Militia Law, and also of forms recommended by the authorities for the organization of the Militia. The law we have already published in these columns. The forms of general interest we copy below. After Gen. Love closed, an informal conversation was carried on for a few minutes, in order that a correct understanding of the subject might be arrived at, and the ball set rolling. James E. Blythe, Esq , proposed that all the military companies in the city meet at their respective armories on Tuesday evening, to consider aud decide whether they will organize under the Military Law of the State ; and be also proposed that a public meeting of the citizens be held at Mozart Hall, this Monday) evening, Sept. IClh to consider this matter of so vital importance J to every one. The meeting concurred in Mr. Blythe's suggestions, and the meetings will be held as above specified. Let there bs a full attendance. No man who has the welfare of the community at heart ought to fail to attend, and lend his aid in the important work of preparing to defend our homes against the dangers of war, now threatening our borders, and soon, may be, destined to burst in terror over our heads. The forms referred to are as follows INSTRUCTION!. In order to insure uniformity in the organization of Volunteer Military Companies, under the Military Law, the following forms are recommended for general use : No. 1. Form or Articles of Associatien. We, whose names are hereto subscribed being citizens and residents of the Slate of Indiana, agree to form ourselves into a Volunteer Military Company in the Indiana, Legion, under the provisions of "An Act for the organization and regulation of the Indiana," &c, approved May 11th, 1861. We severally undertake that we will each uniform ourselves in accordance with the requirements of said law. The Company will be organized without delay, at in -county, in said State, and to be called the Witness our names, this 1861. day of Names. Names No. 2. Form ok Undertaking toUmifobm. We, the undersigned, undertake and bind onrselves as security for ;be members of the

a Volunteer Company, organized under the provisions of the " Act for the organization and regulation of the Indiana , Militia," &c, approved May 11th, 1861; that they will each uniform themselves in accordance with such law.

Taken and approved by me, thei day of 1861. ft., h Witness my hand and seal, -Auditor ofCo. Traitors is the Camp. We alluded the other day to the fact that wagons loaded with contraband goods had left Henderson for the Southern Confederacy. An investi. gation into the affair proves that these wagons were from Evansville, having been ferric! over the river, either here or below, at night, ai:J thence started South. It is high time that the night police were on duty. If we have traitors among U3 who are engaged in the dirty business of supplying the thieves of Tennessee River with food, it is time they were rooted out. All such, if discovered, had better leave for a more genial clime, or insure their traitorous and rope-deserving necks. Since the opening of hostilities, there has been a class of men along the border, who have been willing, lor the sake of money, to give aid and comfort to the rebellion, by selling goods to avowed secessionists. By the means of forged orders, false pretenses, and hard lying, they have succeeded in getting permits, and thus indirectly Evansville has been adding fuel to the flames. This night business is a new feature in the smuggling art, aud the only way to effectually stop it is to place loyal men on the night police. Presentation of the Colors of 35th Regiment. the Duriug our sojourn in St. Louis, the col. ors of the 25th Regiment were presented to the officers and soldiers by Col. Yeatch in behalf of Judge Foster, the liberal donor of, the splendid flag?. We have delayed our notico of the event, in the hope of being able to lay before our readers, the able and patriotic letter of our fellow townsman which accompanied the colors. It was read to the regiment at Dress Parade on the evening of the 4th. and could Judge Foster have witnessed the enthusiasm with which it was received, lie would have been abundantly satisfied. The colors are acknowl" edged to be the finest in the St. Louis camps, aud we are confident tney could not be entrusted to a more gallant company than that of Captain Hastings. Col. Veatch ex" pressed the determinatian of the whole regiment, when lie promisi d for the men under his cumin . ! . . n the Bauner of the Stars, in their Luuii- would be bravely and resolutely defended. Judge Foster has had the satisfaction ot presenting to one of Indiana's first regiments, the finest regimental colors to be found in the Grand Army of the West. . A Nice Business Transaction. An en terprising Green river secessionist has just ide a very profitable coffee transaction, proceeds of which, in gold, were seen our informant. On the pretense ot be ing a Union man, or having au order from a Union man, or some other of the tbousand and one lies, by which the traitois ret supplies, he purchased in this city a lot of coffee how many bags we are not advised. It was shipped up Green river to Bowling Green, thence to Nashville, when it was sold to the Commissary General of the Confederate army for forty cents a ponnd ! Furnishing coffee for Jeff. Davis' army may be a very pleasant and profitable business, but it mifjht lead to unpleasant consequenres. This is our opinion but ask the Major lie knows. "Geo. Smith is now in command ot' the troops At Paducah, having arrived there on Saturday night, the 7th inst. When the troops took possession of the city they captured about $18,000 worth of flour, provisions, and goods. Among the goods were sixty bolts of army cloth. The books of the freight depot show that from one to five car loads of Hour and as many of bacon went South every day for the last two months. We shouldn't wonder if some of the provisions shipped from here to sn? tain the destitute Union men in Pivdurab, constituted a part of these cargoes. Cool Reception of Com. Barron. When Commodore Barron and his officers descended to the deck of the flag ship Minnesota! where Commodore Stringham was stationed on the quarter deck to receive him, General Butler presented Barron to the gallant old Commodore, sayiug " Commodore B.irrnn ' fmnmndnre Strincham. " The latter U)MeIf up t0 hig fu beigbt looked the traitor straight in the eye, and barely inclining his head, replied, " I have seen Mr Barron before. ' Barron, who has always prided himself on the hauteur monde, fairly winced under the whole volumue of honest sarcasm contained in that look and sentence. National Loan. We call attention to the advertisement of the Government Treasury note loan. Those who have funds which they wish to place safely and at good interest should avail themselves of this opportunity. In doing so, they will secure a reliable investment to themselves and at the same time aid the Government in puttiogdown rebellion and restoring peace to the country. This is the People's Loan, and capitalists iu all parts of the country are subscribing freely to it. We feel assured that a liberal amount will be promptly subscribed by those among us who have the means to spare. The Government is about investi gating frauds by army contractors. The Goverumeet Inspector at Perrysville has, wi'hin ten days, condemned nearly five hundred army wagons, and notified the manufacturers to remove them. Giger Recorder McBride is raising a company for the 4 2d Regiment.

Another Railway Massacre—A Railroad Engineer Purposely Wrecks a Train—A Nephew or Gen. Lyon Killed—The Murderer Arrested.

New Tork Herald's Correspondence. DEAR J OfRXAL : Since my last commuWashington, Sept. 9, 1861. ! nication, our camp has been removed a disA detachment of the Harris Light Caval- ; tance of half a mile, to a delightful ground, ry Col. Mansfield, arrived here at five ; ftnd Lefe we &M fm from the du8t hich o'clock, this afternoon, after sad experience and narrow escapes from the diabolical j dld mach abound in our former camp. As treachery of fiendish railroad engineers by you will see, our camp has beer, named in the way. The detachment consisted of honor of old Kentucky's noblest son the three hundred men and fifty-one horses,. uti- j ;nlnorta fjjav der command of Lieut. Col. Kilpatrick. j The rest of the regiment was already here. As whon I last wrote, the whole regiCol. Kilpatrick left New York at 4 p. m. j raent are in fine spirits, and anxious to see on Saturday, proceeding by way of the j active rvice. True, some little dissatis-

aew Jersey central itauroau the Reading and Lebanon Valley Railroads to Harrisburgh, where he arrived at o o'clock on Sunday morning, and immediately upon the arrival of the train, the engine was detached, and the passengers were left in the car3 upon tne iracK at tne uepoi. From that hour until eleven o'clock, Col. Kilpatrick was searching for some officer of the road to furnish an engine to take the train across the river to the Northern Central Road, leading to Baltimore. At last he sent a party of his men to the engine house, with orders to fire up one of the locomotives of the Pennsylvania Railroad, and place it in charge of an engineer, who belonged to one of his companies. His action was resisted by the Railroad employees, and he was accosted by the Assistant Superintendent, Samuel D. Young, who demanded to know if Col. Kilpatrick intended to lake the engine by force. He said that he was under orders to take his men to Washington, and inteaded to do so, for which purpose he he must have a locomotive, and he intended to take one by force if necessary, and that he should take the Assistant Superintendent along with it, tied and gagged, if suchttreatment was requisite. Upon this exhibition of determination to go ahead the Superintendent promised to provide an engine and engineer. This was finally done. Upon arriving at the depot of the Northern Central Road no train was ready, and to avoid a repetition of the experiences at the other depot, and further delay, as his men were without food, Col. Kilpatrick concluded to come on to Baltimore with the train he had, and directed the engineer accordingly. They proceeded safely, at a rate of about eight miles an hour, until within four miles ot Cockeysville, when the engineer put on the steam, and began to run the train at a fearful speed. Col. Fitzpatrick and his wife, and most of the officers, were in the last car. The brakesman left his post and came into the car, declaring that he could not manage the brake-wheel, the train was crashing along at such a speed. In going around a sharp curve, a3 soon as the engine reached the straight road, the steam was suddenly let on, fearfully increasing the rate of speed. Lieut. Lyon, nephew of the late Gen. Lyou, volunteered to man the brake of the last car. Aided by Sergeants McDonald and Fuller, and one of the privates, he had managed to put down the brake, wheu the four cars immediately in front of it were violently thrown from the track, and the breaking of the coupling of the last car let it escape the same fats. Lieut. Lyon and Sergeants McDonald and Fuller and the private, who were manning the brakes, were instantly killed. They had gallantly exposed themselves to danger, and lost their lives, but saved those of the occupants of the last car. As soon as the cars were thrown off, the engineer detached the locomotive and tender from the train, and started ahead, exclaiming, "There, your G d d n train is a wreck, and I hope the whole party is killed. " Col. Kilpatrick promptly gave orders for his arrest, and some of the men started after him, and endeavored by hurling stones to knock him off the engine. The fireman beside him was thus knocked insensible, but the engineer at that time made his escape. Finding iu the command an expert operator, Col. Kilpatrick had the wires cot, and the ends burnished and a message sent to General Dix, at Baltimore, informing hiiu of the occurrence, and desiring him to arrest the fugitive engineer. Th message of course went iu both directions. It wa3 promptly responded to by General Dix. An extra train was sent out from Baltimore to arrest the engineer. When he was met he denied that any acci- t dent had occurred, and professed to be only in charge of a detached engine. He was, however arrested. He had already cut the wires, but not until the message had been sent. Upon his arrival at Cockeysville, he had a whispered conversation with the telegraph operator, from whom he learned that the message had gone before the wire was cut It is reported that wheu intelligence reached Harrisburg, Assistant Superintendent Young expressed gratification at the result, and hoped that Col Kilpatrick was among the killed. fn addition to the four killed iustantly, three were so badly wounded that they have since Jdied. Fifteen others were badly wounded, and a numher received coutusions more or less severe. Two valuable horses were also killed. Except the three men who were tuo badly mangled to be moved, all the woundeJ were brought on to Baltimore, and conveyed to the hospital there. They were met at Baltimore by Major Bolger, Quartermaster at Baltimore, who had prepared ambulances for the dead and wounded, and a substantia! meal for the living, aud took charge of the dead to have the bodies forwarded to Hew York to-day. The detachment arrived at Baltimore last night. The intelligence of the affair was suppressed in order to effect the arrest of the guilty parties. At the Camden depot, en route to Washington, another difficulty was experienced in procuring cars, but Col. Kilpatrick again took possession of a train, and arrived here at 5 o'clock this afternoon. Colonel Ktipatrick is a graduate of West. Point, and wa3 wounded in the battle of Big Bethel. This detachment of details is procured from him. He is full of energy. The affair will be subjected to legal investigation, and the cold-blooded murderers who planned and executed this hellish outrage will be punished. A fellow by the name of Spider or Spidel, who prints a secession sheet in Henderson, states that some of the United States soldiers at Padoeah, a few days since, amused themselves by running naked through the streets. This, of course, is a naked lie, and just about as probable as the thousand stories put afloat by the rebels to gull such sapheads as Spider, or whatever his cognomen may be. Mubk Contraband. A lot of goods conSigned to au Kviinsville hoase, but intended for partk-3 in Henderson, were overhauled by the Purveyor last Friday. They con- j tained contrah.tnd goxids, and w.re carried j off by ,he remorseless Collector of Customs. flsaj-WTieat and float have materially advanced in New York in the last few days. '

Army Correspondence. Camp Henby Clay, Mo., September 9, 1861. J

factioa ia manifegtej bv on account of not yet receiving their arms and saddles, but as a general thine: all are iniDressed with the conviction that -Uncle Sam" is I doing as fast as he can, and that all will be I right, soon. Our noble commander, Col. Baker, returned to camp yesterday morning (Sunday,) looking still, as when he left us, in fine health. As he justly deserves to be, Col. Baker is honored and esteemed by the whole Regiment officers and privates. As regards bia fitness for the post he occupies, no one doubts it, and the fullest confidence is possessed by all, that he will lead us to honor and to victory, over our country's foes. Some twenty-five of our regiment, are ill in the hospital but owing to the skill of 1st Surgeon Casselberry, and assistant Surgeon Bracket, they are rapidly recovering, and will soon be able to return to duty. In this connection, I cannot refrain from speaking of the kindness shown to our sick by the Union ladies of the city of St. Louis. Through their kindness the sick have been supplied with mattresses, beds, quilts, blanket., and many other articles of comfort which, but for their kindness, they would have been forced to have done without. They have also furnished to the sick, books, pamphlets, magazines, and newspapers to while away the tedious hours. Their kindness will never be forgotten, but will ever live in many bossoms, enshrined with home, friends, and all that is dear to memory. We enjoy the blessings of religious service here, twice each Sunday. The Rev. Mr. Wood is our chaplain. He is doing much, very much of good and is generally beloved aud respected by all. As regards the people of St. Louis and the surrounding country, the majority of them, I think, fire for the Union. Of course there are many disunionists, but they do not come out openly, with their treasonable sentiments. News has just come to camp, that we are to receive our arms, saddles and I equipment.! to-morrow, but we have had like promises so often, and have been disap- 1 pointed, that none entertain any very great j hones of getting them now. There is a rumor current through the camp that we are to leave here in a week for Paducab, Ky. I do not think there is any confidence to be placed in the report, i think wn will be needed here where we are, more than anwhere else. However, time will show. As for our officers, as far as I have been able to form an opinion, I think they are all high-minded and honorable gentlemen. But of Capt, Walker and First Lieutenant Bingham, of Company B., I would speak for the present in particular. They are indefatigable in the discharge of their duty enjoy the respect and fullest confidence of the men under their command; and wherever or in whatever position they may be placed, they will he found equal to the emergency, and will perform their duty with honor to their country and themselves. I doubi not but you will hear of some warm tin a here soon. I will keep you posted regarding everything ot interest. For the present, I remaiu, us ever, W. H. P.
