J Mr. Editor: Before this will have reached you, you will have learned of a little fight on the 28th inst.. between a small portion of Jackson's cavalry and some 500 of the rebel cavalry, under command, I believe, of a Lieut. -Col. Merri wether. I waited to get the facts in regard to the tight before writing to you, ana will give yo tne result as nearly as can be gotten a present. The skirmish took place at Sacramento, about ten miles from here, and resulted in the loss of about twelve or fourteen men on our side, of which number was one Captain (Bacon) killed and one (Davis) taken prisoner. The rebel loss, as we learn from citizens, was three wagon loads of ktlled and wounded, amongst which was the Lieutenant-Colonel before spoken o, Tiiese are as nearly the results as I can get from the best authenticated sources. There were but 140 of Jackson's cavalry, and, ai before stated, 500 rebels. Some " rapscallion '' has told you that we only parade 320 men in our regiment, but if you had seen the bloody 42nd the evening of the affray, you would not, in all probability, have said that your informant had lied, but that he had extensively pre varicated. We have had a slight touch of tbe measles, but the cases that have resulted seriously are. I think, very few : only five having died since we came into tbe service. If other regiments are sent here, I would suggest to the Colonels, that they, so soon aff they reach here, issue a " general order," the substance of which should be, "prepare to take measles,' then in due "course of human events, the men will aU- be ready U,t Uutt, iuc 1 ota JjcidcJly of iue opinion that this is a measly country, and men -are obliged to have if, so if it be done by general order it would look more military. I am told that buffalo horns have been found in this vicinity not more than, a year La beutca .'..lhoTj3eeker tells me hereabouts. I was tolJ of an incident tbal occurred in Ihia viciuity not very long since at ball. A sturdy youth led on tbe floor a buxom lass of " sweet sixteen," whose hair was raven black, eyes of the deep blue of heaven, teeth of pearly white, rosy cheeks, ruby lips, neck of alabaster whiteness, and whose form was a perfect model of symmetrical beauty. Tho bosom of our lovely lass gently heaved, her soul-lit eyes spoke of love, only love, and our youthful friend eeemed princely rich in the possession of the fair one's hand for the dance. He gently leaned over while the fair one inclined her head towards his, and at this time my informant stepped closely up expecting to bear some words of deep, heartfelt, undying, unquenchable, never-eeas-iug and never-ending lov and heard the lad say, "stick to your puncheon Sal." "For the first time," my informant said, ' I remembered that the floor was made out of puncheons split out of large trees. This little incident will serve to enlighten your lady readers in Evansi la on the subject ot Green River ball-room etiquette ; however, it were, perhaps, better if many a "laddie" had never said more to some of those fair angels than "stick to your puncheon, Sal." While talking of the fir ones, let me tell you wbat a young lady wrote me not long since. Jibe had a beau who, fool-like, had expected tj win her affections by appeals to her love of the almighty dollar, but that she most emphatically informed him she intended to be a soldier's wife. Moral : For the Lord's sake, ladies, don't marry till the boys of the "bloody 42nd'1 reach home "none deserve the fair but the brave." I learn that there are some "peace men" (so called), yet at work in old Hoosier; that in some counties they have elected delegates to attend a convention at Indianapolis, and that said peace men are for the war as long as it is constitutional, and that they are awfully exercised about the cost, Dm W irt tells an incident in the life of Patriot Henrv. which 1 often think of. Ore Tom Hook had some fat cattle which were taken for the sturdy sdldiers who gained our liberties, but it was not strictly legal. Hook sued for the nrice of them. Patrick Henry plead against him, and in closing j bis speech he spoke of the glories of our in- j dependence, of the sounds of joy that were rigging through the American camps, of . how nroudlr the American eagle, perched upon- wax standard, "but," said he, "what hoarse notes of discord are those I hear through the camp? They are those of Tommy Hook, crying beef! beef! I beef!!! so those secession commissaries are bellowing beef! beef! beef! peace! peace! constitution! constitution! but if they do not stop their veiling in time they will lose their own beef, bide, tallow and all. We ot tbe 4?nd are for Deace. but it is not till those infernal rebels are punished for their mad folly of rebelling against the best govern-j ment that ever wa. When we have Buffioiently avenged the blood of the innocent who have been most inhumanly butchered by worse than barbarians, for only lovioK their country, we are then for peace, and not till then. In my last, your printers, as the politician said, most horribly "mucilatea" my name. He had an L where it should have been a Q. Q. K. JcKirER Wiggihs. The London Times makes the fol lowing admission; "The active spirits trom every Northern State have flocked to the war. These are superior, both in bodily trength and menial culture, to the av eraie of European troops."

Kcntneky Itcma. The Louiarille papers of Tuesday eve

ning, contain the following interesting in telligence: Gen. Floyd, the great Cheat, arrived in Bowling Green from the neighborhood of Cheat Mountain last Tuesday. ' snZyT Ve hopTit will not be till we have finished the war. It will be a neat ittle subject for a war. Gosi. The 4th Ohio Cavalry marched through the city Sunday on their waj to the seat of war. Two or three batteries of artillery passed down over the railroad yesterday for the grand army. j Charleston fire, was a large quantity of reb el macninery, ror steamsnips ana oruoance, aad 3,000,000 pounds of Sea Ilaod cotton cot insured. Simon Bolivar Buckner's property is attached in this city for $64,904 16.. The Nashville road is a party to a good portion of it. He has a bouse and lot here of wis gwn, and one bought but not paid toi;. ilis wife's property is conveyed to her brotter. A letter of Buckner's was intercepted some time ago, begging a friend for some money, stating that be had not a penny. If he had been an honest man he might have fared lull.. From thm ADVANCK.-7-By the trains up this morning, we learn that there is no large force on the Nashville Railroad north of Bell's Tavern, which point is about seventeen miles south of Munfordsvil le. Yesterday the rebels at Cave City, 5 miles north of Bell's Tavern, in the usual spirit of destruction, took all the furniture from me oave Lity Motel, and set the house oa fire. Some Union man shot off big gun, when the rebels, believing their picketa were about to be driven in, stood not on the order ot their going, but went'at once, in great haste, and with no little confusion not stopping till they reached Bell's Tavern. Meantime the Union men of Cave City rallied, and succeeded in extinguishing the fire. Whether or not our advance has taken possession of Cave City is not stated, bnt we infer that a sufficient number of troops will be sent down to hold the place. There are amusing as well as seri ous doings in Richmond. A letter from there to the Nashville Union says: , We have had recently number of remarkable matrimonial alliances. Last week the most beautiful girl in town married a widower with eight children, some of them grown. On the day this wedding took place a man of eighty carried to the si tar a Miss of seventeen Eumiaera. Mr. "Black Diamonds" Palard, one of the editors of the Examiner, is among the. list of bymenial victims. Some of these marriages took place in a church, and were attended with very noisy and ludicrous demonstrations. It is said that when tbe old man mentioned above saluted bis bride, the whole congregation shouted, and the boys poured a is evidently rotting rapidly.

All with one exception, have entirely recovered, and he is doing very well, with a good prospect of being thoroughly restored to health. Bloomington Republican. Uoos.
