Pictures. Mr. Adams, who has re-opened the Daguerrean Rooms formerly occupied by Mr. Smith, has some beautiful likenesses on exhibition that show him a master of the art. His advertisement has appeared in our paper for several days past, and we invite visitors to his rooms over Schlaepfer's Drug Store, at the corner of Main and Second streets. A few minutes can be spent there quite pleasantly. The letter from our regular corres pondent at Jefferson City will be found quite interesting. We regret that its length compelled us to omit a glowing eulogy on Major Tanner, of Indianapolis. While we can heartily endorse all our correspondent says of that gallant young officer, the remarks would not be of great interest to a large majority of our readers; to whom he was a stranger. All the movements of the Confed erate States, from first to last, have been remarkable for the secrecy with which they have been conducted. We always " hear what they have done instead of what they are going to do. The latter we conjecture. Their attack on Moultrie was unexpected. Their Congress deliberated and issued its decrees in secret. Not even the papers in the South know anything about the plans of the military leaders. They have a genius for conspiracy. They concentrated the attention of the North on Washington, and overran Missouri ; and while we have been talking about Missouri they have thrown a tnrrr- irttyho prmr ir.tr, WpnfnVy This aerfgn has given them many aavantages to which their actual strength would never have entitled them. Skill as well as numbers must always be considered in military listimates, and it is earnestly to be hoped that the army of the West will be handled with that tact and energy which the exigencies of the case imperatively demand When competent and experienced men command the rebel forces it is vain for us to expect success unless equal ability characterizes the leaders of the federal army. This necessity has been painfully apparent to the people of the West ever since General Fremont assumed command. He had abundance of men and material at his command, but he has failed to use them. He has operated without system and without success ; and it will be fortunate indeed if his blunders have not lost Missouri to the Union. Evansville Gazette. We can not join in the Gazette's admiration of the rebel leaders. We cannot even agree with it "that the attack on Moultrie was unexpected." We think it the most natural thing in the world that Gn. Anderson should blaze away at Moultrie when Moultrie was firing at him. Isn't the Gazette a little muddy in its historical recollections ? As for the twaddle about Fremont's having an abundance of men and material at hi3 command, and failing to use them, every body knows that it is false, and the statement only shows the Gazette's desire to injure the Union cause in Missouri by attempting to shake the confidence of the people in the commander of that department. A Beautiful Flag. We were shown, yesterday, by Messrs. Schapker & Bussing, a beautiful silk flag, manufactured by Miss BotTandick, the stars being embroidered in white floss. It is a beautiful piece of workmanship, just the thing for a company stand of colore. It will be on exhibition to-day at the Library Rooms.

ARMY CORRESPONDENCE.

Jefferson City, Oct. 3, 1861. Editors Journal : Since I last wrote, this nondescript city has exhibited unusual signs of animation. Thousands of troops, and inconceiveable quantities of army stores and munitions of war, have arrived ; and, as fast as means of transportation could be obtained, they have been forwarded to points above. The 1st inst., witnessed the arrival of Rabb's, Frybarger's, Powell's, Chandlier's, and Totten's batteries, and doubtless should it be deemed necessary, they will be immediately sent on to Georgetown. I had a long conversation with Totten's men, some of whom have been in the U. S., service fifteen years. They have seen every variety of service, an4. are as hard as iron in constitution, and regard fighting with frigid indifference. Latterly they have been so accustomed to such experiences with secessionists, that they have the most vivid contempt for that species of birds ; and they are now satisfied, that, as we have a respectable force of three year s men, and no home guard s, Jackson's Carthagenians will stand hardly a shadow of a chance, if we can once get them at bay. The last troops that went on to Boonville andSedalia, were the 2d, 12tb, and 15th Missouri regiment. They are a fine body of men, well nniiormed and armed, and drilled. All of the Missouri regiments I have yet seen, are composed entirely, or almost entirely, of Germans, and if onr other regiments would imitate them a little in their method of cooking and providing creature comforts, it would be to their advantage. I have perceived but oue objection, and that is they carry too much baggage. The load they carry would break the back of a mule. I have seen Fremont, the Fabius M.IMaximus of Missouri. I had seen picture of him in 1856, said to be faithful in their likeness to him, but the original disproves the representation. He is smaller and slighter than I had Imagined, but his physique is well knit; and we know from his Rocky Mountain experiences, that his powers of endurance are almost incredible. His nprannel is 'nreDOBsefiBine; bis features are finely cut ; his eye is large and bright; his forehead shows well developed perceptive faculties, and his mouth denotes resolution. He wears his beard and whiskers large, and they are becoming very grey. His face, from its pallor, shows that care and toil are making their corroding ravages on his constitution, but the iron will and indomitable energy of the man will bear him successfully through the . heavy responsibilities which his position of Commander-in-Chief of the Western Department of the army of the U. S., settles upon him. His manner is mild, aDd be disdains the vulgar affectation of vain show, and gingerbread pretense. His ambi t plainly to do his duty faithfully. coutidos in the people to fcsksttua aim while doing bo. There has ueea. some personal difficulty between Col. B.iur and him, and there has been in consequence, an effort to have Fremont removed from his position by Blair and his factious enpporters. Recourse has been had, evea to slander, to effect their dishonorable aci unpatriotic purpose. Jackson's favorite expression Was, that ,:toe slanderer is wo. murderer," and to this all will a3seut; tor "The purest treasure mortal time afford In Bootless refutation : that away, Man is but gilded loam, or painted clay." But it is cheering to know that Fremont 1 i i 1 ' - "t tiAa itnQU Mini, wi t, he attempts to destroy a man who baa accomplished so much in so short a time, a man so plain, honest and able, and who has taken such a hold upon the confidence and affections of the Western people, and particularly upon the hearts of his soldiers, that his pennyweight is altogether inadequate to to the herculean task. This is one evil of putting prominent politicians whereby their uneasiness of disposition, and their intractableness, conceit, and vanity, they have opportunities and a cortesponding will to accomplish much harm, but neither ability nor spirit to achieve anything deserving of mention. Since the 30th ultimo, he General has been encamped with his guards at'the South-West of the town. His guard numbers about 450 men and horses, both of which make a splendid appearance. Their uniform is deep blue, and tbey are armed with rifle, sabre, revolver, and revolving carbine. They are well drilled, and are good horsemen. The horses are the pick of the West, large, stout, spirited and fleet, I was amused the other day at a verdant youth who, seeing their superb display, became envious of their condition and situation, and expressed his regret at his illfortune in not getting into a corps so favored by fortune, and so magnificent in their babiliraentn. Presently three of the guards came alour, and greeny acrosted one of them, asking him what he thought of the guards, and bow he liked bis position. The guard eyed him a moment, and then quietly remarked, "my friend, if you have a good company, be content with it, and don't envy us any apparent good luck, for where we have a moment's leisure you have a hundred ; and bear in mind that, "all is not gold that glitters." The greenhorn felt cheap, and gave vent to his astonishment with a "well, who'd ha' thot it." We feel considerable anxiety on account of the news we have received concerning the state of things in Kentucky, and the danger in which Southern Indiana rests from invasion. I have often thought such would be the upshot of matters in that State, which boasts on its mural contribution to the monument to Washington, that she was the first-born of the Union, and shall be the last to leave it. Idle, empty boast ! What would you think of your son, man grown and stalwart, were he to stand unconcernedly by and see a ruffain attempt to murder and rob you, and fire your habitation ; and in what does the action of Kentucky differ from this unnatural conduct since last Decemher ? Kentucky wishes to be neutral ! Neutral ! When the face is struck, is not the nervous system affected clear down to the toes ? First born of the Union ! Quito consistent for a first born, is it not, to see his parents abused, despoiled, and insulted No, Kentucky continued the disguise until it became uo longer of use to her, aud until the patience of the mighty North and West, neither could i nor would hold out any longer. Now we : have to cross the river and fight their battles ; and yet we are told the Kentucky heart beats responsive to the Union .' Tbat poor heart has taken a long spell of rest, and no other body politic possessed of such a heart, could have existed so long without the least manifestation of pulsation. They have voted themselves three times friends of the Union, yet their railroads and rivers, were all the time used as avenues tbrongh which the materials of war and subsistence, and Kentucky boons, were s"iit South to the secessionists. Dutiful, affecc iirst born ! We are told thai . ifui first born has sixty thousand majority for the

Union, and the excuse now offered

fur trio grant nf cnirit mnnifaRtPtl bT them 1 if, that it was their duty to be neutral abulwarfcr which Bhould prevent this Union men from reaching the rebels to chastise them. They acknowledge, too, in a manner, that the minority, by their fierceness and intolerance, were too formidable for them to attack them unassisted, and I suppose that Ohio, Indiana and Illinois will have to do the fighting for the first born, as they have now to do fr Missouri and Western Virginia. There is something in all this. Why, if these large majorities so strongly believe in, and are so unalterably attached to "A Union ot lakes and a Union of lands, A Union of States none can sever ; A Union of hearts and a Union of hands, And the Hag of the union iorever, do they not show more alacrity in organizing armies, not of ten days sportsmen, not three nonths triflers, but armies, who will not lay down their arms 'till every traitor is conquered, and the flag of the nation waves without molestation from every hill top, and from every mast bead, and from every flag staff, and from every church spire in the nation ? Must the heart's blood of the loyal Western States be shed before the very sight and at the thresholds of the very doors of these immense numbers of would-be-considered Union men, and that, too, in defence of their liberties, their rights and their lives, and they stand idly by, perchance indulging the pleasurable employment of picking their teeth ? Here in Missouri, we see the fact staring as in the face that with the exception of the Germans, and perhaps a few others, there is no sign of a disposition among the inhabitants to help to relieve themselves of Price and his marauders. They would rather pull up stakes and move off than show their manhood in meeting the bold and unprincipled partisans of secession. Now, disguise the matter a9 we will, (and it is indeed hard to judge these people as they should be judged by their acts), yet the fact of their utter indisposition to enter at all, much less with enthusiasm, into the contest, speaks vol umes against their vaunted patriotism and love for the Union. They will go as home guards, but as such, they had better stay at home, because they achieve nothing, and their bickerings and ridiculous, awkwardness excites the contempt and.jters of their neighbors. Saywiiat we will, the South has fulfilled her programme. The war is confined to the border states, and they must even if drafting is had recourse to, to ronse their thick blood and sluggish natures, turn out en masse to assist in carrying the war into Africa. It is no use talking, it must b done. Supplies must be stopped, even if every rick of wheat, every ear of corn is destroyed, so that the guerillas which we have to encounter will from necessity fall back on the commissariat of their friends, and Union men must, in Virginia, and in Kentucky, and in Missouri, nut their shoulders to the wheel in earnest, or the Fall will pas3 and nothing will have been accomplished. The rebels have left Lexington. Their locust natures can hud hardly sufficient provender from the well gleaned fields in that interesting locality, besides they got wind of the fix they would find themselves in, were they to suffer the Union troops to surround them. I have been astonished at the character of the telegrams published in St. Louis papers concerning matters in this place, aud from Otterville, Sedalia and Georgetown. Nobody here believes a word of them. Nine-tenths are fabrications manufactured to cause excitement and give eclat to their columns. Such maneuvers and cheats degrade the functions of the press, mislead the public, and disgrace their originators and abettors. Seeing with my own whereof I affirm. There is nothing but what is common place occurring, but by the jugglery of a thorough paced reporter, it is made to appear astounding. What will be the next move of our army I do not know. It is evident it will be kept in pursuit of Price. The newspapers confidently state that when Price joins MoCullongb, their joint farces will give us battle. This is improbable, as they know we are too strong for them, aad besides their part of the play is to keep us till January in Missouri, when they expect England and France, compelled by the voice of their i starving operatives, will force the blockade and thus become participants in this em- ! broglio. Fremont however, is evidently planning something for their consideration, ; and when the corps de arme in Missouri is ! fully organized end fitly prepared, and the General's plans are matured, Price will have to be possessed of more wit and fleeter steeds than I think be is, if he is not soon outwitted, dispersed or destroyed. The hospitals continue crowded. Oae cf our men from French Island, Robert Turner, died night before last of diarrhoea. Since yesterday morning, eight have died, and several more are grouping among the shadows of insensibility to find an aperture by which to pass into the highway which leads to the bourne whence nc traveler returns. A day or two ago one of Ellis' cavalry went with h,s horse into the river, the horse slipped and fell, and the man lost his seat the horse reached the shore and the man was drowned. On the same day, but a few hours later, a man belonging to an Illinois regiment, hearing that the "unit of his heart," faithless to her bridal vows of love and fidelity, boundless as infinity, and as enduring as eternity, had "run off with another man," he, I say, in contradiction to Shakespeare's assertion, "that men have died and worms have eaten tbem, but not for love," made au attempt fo explore the depths ot the river for a spot in which to take an everlasting snooze. Some of bis comrades divined his intent, showed him his folly at attempting self-destruction for the sake of such a worthless strumpet, reconciled him to the plaa of trying life a little longer by representing to him that better, handsomer, more faithful women were still in being, and still to be won by merit, and taking a mouthfnl from a canteen which from the contortions of the men's countenances, I judged to be something stronger than water, he shook hands wi(b every one, and swore he was wiser and not at all sad. The weather is variable; one day hot, next cold, next wet. Inconstant as a jilt, it frowns, smiles, weeps and storms. The soldiers here congregated have been paid off and consequently it has been no unusual thing to see "friends of the government" intoxicated. Fremont's eagle glance saw the state of things, and ordered a patrol to pick up all such and put them in the guard house, and new all those without passes from their Colonel, a ; in like fix with Tarn O Shanter, Who ars notion, but just ha' plenty, i are gathered up without much ceremony, and conducted to lodgings, cribbed, cabined and confined.

Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Pennsylvania, Western Virginia, and all other nncurrent money. Also, Gold and Land Warrants.

Southern Items.

The Memphis papers of the 30th inst, have been received at Louisville from which we gather the following news items: Oeneral Hardee's command has fallen back to Pittman's ferry, on the Arkansas line. Governor Moore, of Louisiana, has issued au order to seize all the pork in New Orleans, held bv sneculators. who had advanced the price to fifty dollars per barrel. The authorities of Mobile have determined to issue shinplasters tor $3, $2, and $1, and 50 and 25 cents. We find special dispatches to the Memphis Avalanche one from New Orleans, of September 29th, stating tnat uovernor Moore has issued orders to drill every evening; those refusing, are set down in a black list as enemies of the South. Banks and insurance offices are to close at two o'clock p. other business houses at three o'clock. Another dispatch, from Fort Smith, Ark., of the 26th, states that a regiment of Missourians, under Col. Hnnter, had been defeated by Lane and Montgomery, who are marching on the Arkansas frontier; that McCulloch has only thirty-five hundred men with him. He issued a proclamation on the 24tb, calling for three regiments of infantry immediately. Jefferson City special dispatches of the evening of the 4th, to the St. Louis papers, contain the following items. Mr. Prescott, a citizen of Lexington, who was at the battle, states that Price's intention is to retreat to the southwest or to Arkansas; that his official report is a tissue of falsehoods; that his total loss in killed and wounded will not fall below one thousand others say more than that. In the Richmond papers of the 28th ult., we have further Southern news. The Virginia papers are becoming alarmed at the tremendous issue of shinplasters by banks, banking houBea, dealers, Ate. All the coopers in Charleston have been engaged in making water-tight kegs and barrels for the use of Fort Sumpter, to be filled with fresh water, so that if communication should be cut off with Charleston, the garrison will not perish till they have consumed three thousand casks full. At Aiken and Bamburg, South Carolina, Mr. Haley, who has reached Washington from Charleston, saw several hundred citizen soldiers drilling in their shirt sleeves, the weather being quite warm, using sticks of wood instead of guns, of which they had none. General Sterling Price sent his family and negroes to Texas, and a number of the Secession leaders have followed his example. Protection of the Border. We noticed the other day that Governor Morton had made application to the General Government to authorize the construction of three gunboats on the Ohio, one to be stationed above and the other two below the falls. Since then he has applied for authority to construct a telegraph line from New Albany to Mt. Vernon, along the river, in order to facilitate the collection and movemeut of troops for tbe defence of the border. The Indianapolis Journal, commenting upon these facts, says: If he obtains both demands we believe the line of the Ohio within our Slate limits willgbe sufficiently guarded, even without batteries at the principal towns, and with what wotiM otherwise bo an adequate Falls and the mouth of tbe Wabash, if they be reasonably fast, and armed as heavily as those already constructed, ca'u reach any point at which the rebels might try te cross, in a few hours, and either blow them out of the water or stop them from crossing. Let one be stationed about tbe middle of the upper half of the distance, the other in tbe middle of the lower half, and each will only have to traverse one-fourth of the whole in order to reach tbe most remote point at which a rebel force might attempt to cross. Telegraph lines could convey the news of an attempted passage to the nearest boat, and in six or eight hours at the outtide it could reach the place. With only such facilities for crossing as skiffs and rafts the rebels could notjput 2,000 men across tbe river in less than a day, consequently "a gunboat could come down upon them in time to cut the expedition in two, and leave the force already across to be wasted piece-meal or captured in a masa. With the boats constantly passing up and down tbe river the rebels could never get a steamboat, or any large vessel, to assist them in crossing, without its being seen and captured. They would, consequently, hare no dependence but tbe small vessels which would only prove a dead-fall lor them. Inshort, three swift, well armed gunboats can be disposed along the Ohio so as to prevent any force larger than a thousand or so of tbe enemy crossing, and no rebel force of that strength will ever' venture a trip into Indiana with the chance of the gunboat j cutting off their return. The boats will save a good deal of expense and alarm, and we trust the Government will authorize their construction. gt& Black Township, Posey county, gives Hynes a majority of 222 over Stinson and 205 over Barkwell. BtaSTMr. Taylor of Owensboro, vent to Indianapolis yesterday in charge of Marshal Martin. teThe returns of Black township Posey Co., are as follows: Blythe Hynes 260; Stinson, 38; Barkwell, 55. Five companies of the 42nd Regi ment were yesterday mustered into tbe service of the United States. The remaining companies will be mustered in to-day. We have no official vote of tbe county. It will be sufficient so far as the office of Auditor is concerned to say that Mr. Biscli is elected by a majority of 70 votes. fiti? The City Greys, Capt. Biscli, were out in full force last night, and made a f ne appearance. This company is now full, and under the command of Capt. Biach promises to be one of the best drilled companies in the city. During their parade last nigh1 the company halted in front of our office and gave three hearty cheers " fr the Evansville Journal." We appreciate the compliment. 'A member of the 31st Indiana Reg iment, died Tuesday night, on O'Riley's wharf boat. He was taken to the cemetery yesterday, escorted by the Evansville Rifles.

Clothing at last. By the following dispatch from Gen. Reynolds to Gov. Morton, it will be seen that our men in Western Virginia, are in a fair way to be clothed at last : Hcttoktixle, Va., Oct. 7, 1861. T Gov. O. P. Morton: Clothing is coming forward. In a few days we will have a supply for the Thir

teenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth and Seventeenth, except shoes, socks and caps; the last not so important. Shoes and socks much needed. These regiments have suf fered greatly, but not a man among them ha3 any fault to find with the Governor of his State. They are all informed of the exertions made in their behalf and appreciate it, and when opportunity offers will show it. J. J. Reynolds, Brigadier General. Commissary General Stone went east from Indianapolis yesterday, to provide the articles named as lacking by Gen. Reynolds, so that we may hope for a marked improvement in the condition of our men in a few days.' The articles most needed socks cannot be obtained, of the proper quality, and our ladies shonld hurry up the knitting needles, now busily at work in this city, for the benefit of the Crescent City Guards. The fact is unquestioned, that but for the efforts of tbe Oownor and the State officers, our troops in the Virginia mountains would have received no clothing at all this winterThe government officials have been most shamefully and criminally negligent, and we understand that charges have been preferred against them by the Governor, and forwarded to Washington. ———<>——— HOME INTERESTS. ——— The City Greys meet to-night at Crescent Engine House. ———<>——— Attbntio.
