We ask for General Veatch's letter, which we publish this morning, the careful perusal of the public He might well havepursued silence, and let the officers and men of the regiment, who were participants in the battle of Fort Donelson, to be his vindicators, but his reply to the letter of Lieut. Col. Morgan so completely exposes the malignity and falsehood of the vile slanders, that his friends will thank him for his manly reply. Will the Indianapolis Sentinel, and other Democratic papers, who have been calling for his reply, now that he has made it, have the kindness to publish it? If they do not, it will be a public confession of the slanderous character of the charges. If the Funding Bill should pass, as Senator Sherman, of the Finance Committee, declares it will, it will cost the people of the United States over $10,000,000,000 to pav the $1, 200.000,000 they borrowed U4w.. 1801 and 1HG5 or, in other words, vine dollars to liquidate an indebtedness of one.

If funding a Government debt bearing six- per cent, interest into bonds bearing only four per cent, interest, will require nearly nine dollars to liquidate an indebtedness of one, how many dollars will tho citizens cf Evansvillo have to pay for every dollar of their city indebtedness, heretofore bearing three per cent, interest, after it is changed into bonds bearing eleven per cent.? Will the Courier editor, who presides over tho figure department, solve us this little problem in the rulo of three? We await .his answer with interest. If ho is not equal to the emergency, we respectfully suggest the propriety of securing the services of Dr. Morgan, who is fearful on figures. Kerp it before the people of Indiana, that the gallant Lieut. Colonel W. H.Morgan has fully ventilated the character of the "white feathered" General Yeatch, and that the Hob. W.

To'iu ruined T',,.';'V .. About the 1st of July, tU,Au4iaaapolis Sentinel published a fate and fdanderous statement charging that I was not in command of the 23th Indiana at the battle of Fort Donelson, s I had stated in my official report, but that Lieutenant Colonel Morgan commanded the regiment, and that I lingered in the rear till after the surrender; " ,'!.""" This vile falsehood of the Sentinel was answered by forty-eight officers and men of that regiment, who were with me in the three days bard ngntinc at TiVtrr. Tirmelson. and wno de nounced the statement of the" Sentinel a fulxe in every particular. ' . I heard no more or mis laiseuuuu nf the Sentinel till the 7th inst.. 1 .n,n;ny hnma from the UDDer part of the district, I learned that the Sntinel had repeated us iaisohood, and had also published a long e Wm. II. Morgan, m which he attempts to claim the credit of having commaoded the regiment the hattla of Fort Donelson. Now in reply to both the Sentinel and Col. Wm. H. Morgan. I assert that I was present and in ilie immedintfi tins I personal command of the Twenty fifth regiment Indiana I olunteers' during every hour and minute tin sirt'il rcniincnt tea enaaaed with the enemy or under fire, during the three day fighluvj at Fort Donelson. . And I assert that Col. Morgan did not command eaid regiment, one minntA vIiUa it was engaged in action with the enemy during the whole of said battle; and that lie exercised no nther authority or command tnan that of Lieutenant Colonel, receiving his orders and commands from me, . Tbo enemy surrendered on the morning of the 16th February; lotSi and on the 18th, two days after the surrender, I made my official report of the battle to Col. Lauman, ot the 7th Iowa, my brigade commander, in which I stated every important particular whiah .concerned my .regiment and its officers, and gave due credit to Lieut. Col. Wm. H. Morgan for all that he performed during the battle. ma. t . . 1 . T i lnis reDortwas suDmitteato ijieui.Col. Wm.H. Morgan and Major John W. Foster for examination and cor rection before it was forwarded 'to Brigade Headquarters, and LieutCol. Morgan did not then, nor has he at auy time since then, ever stated to me that any injustice was done him in said report. On the same day that my report was made, CdI. Lauman, Brigade Commander, made his report to Uen. which report he refers to the orders which ho gave to Col. Veatch, Commanding Twenty-Jiflh Indiana, and rpjaks of the services rendered by Col. Veatch during the action, but tho name of Lieut.-Col. Wm. II. Mor rn is not mcntionod iu his whole re port. Now, if any injustice was done Col Morgan, why did he not seek redress while all the facts were fresh in the minds of tho officers and men? He pretends that he intended to lay the matter before Gen. Smith, but that officer died before any opportunity was ottered, uen. bmith was with the army and accessible to all officers up to the timo of his death, at Savan nah, nearly two months after the bat tie. - . Can it bo possible that Colonel Morgan would suffer such gross in justice to be heaped upon him when he could have had his wounded honor healed in a minute by an appeal to General Smithy But when General Smith died, why not call on Lauman, who knew all the facts as well as Gen. Smith did? Col. Morgan continued to nerve in tho same division with General Lauman for at least eight months after the battle of Fort Donelson. Why did he not appeal to him as an officer, knowing all the facte, to do him justice? He says that he called on me with the request that I sbouid do him iustice. I declare his statement false, and that he never complained to me of my report or asked for any correction of a siogle statement in it. ' Colonel ' Morgan continued in my command until December, 1S02. In January, 1863,' I was assigned to the command of the District of Memphis, and Colonel Morgan made an earnest appeal to Gen. Grant, through me, to have his regiment again placed ' tinder my command. .He remained in the division which I commanded till about June, 18(34, whea he resigned. Daring all this ; time - he had ample opportunity to have established the matters, charged in his letter, if there had been any truth in them. But he does not pretend that he ever tried to do so. He waits six years and a half, until the Division Commander, the Brigade Commander, and the Adjutant of the Regiment are dead, and . then he comes out, during a heated political canvass, and . makes . himself the tool of a partisan newspaper, and proposes in this way to heal the wounds which his honor has so patiently suffered for so many years, ami to deny the official reports mnde on the battle-fields, and published to the world at the time, and read by himself and every member of the Regiment. ' I submit this statement of the facts as they exist, and refer to the official reports made at tho time, and to the statement of the officers and men, lately pmblished in answer to the Sentinel, as evidence sufficient to satisfy all reasonable men that the statement ot m. 11. Morgan is made out of personal and malicious motives and unworthy ot credit. James C. Veatch. Evansville, Aug. 9, iscs. Card from Major John W. Foster. In the letter of Lieut. Col. Wm. II. Morgan, published in the Indianapolis Sentinel and to which Gen. James fj. Veatch has made the foregoing reply, my name is used several times, and I am appealed to to substantiate or deny tne statements made by Col. Morgan. I can only reiterate the statement already madeby me in the Evansville Journal, that "Colonel James C. Veatch was present and in immediate personal command of his regiment during every moment of the three days righting that it was under the are of the enemy.'? I have no information that any orders were received irom brigade or division commanders except through Colonel Veatch, and I.am sure that all the movements of the regiment during the fighting were under . his - iiLidW su? rervision and by his orders Col eatch was present with the regiment in its advanced position in front of the enemy s works on the 13th of February, commanded in person in the charge on the 15th, and did not leave the regiment until the last hostile shot had been fired. lie read his official report of the battle to Lieut. Col. Morgan and myself before forwarding it to tho brigade commander, and no correction or objection was

A REIGN OF TERROR. The Town of Versailles Sacked. HORRIBLE OUTRAGE OX A WOMAX. Special Telegram to the Commercial.! Louisville, Sept. 8 From genA 1 ucmen wno came uowo ty the r rank ! . 1 t ... wit nam, jTKbiuruay, wo learn taat a desperate tight took place at Versailles, on Sunday night, at about 7 o clock. A company of fifteen or twenty mounted men entered the town, . firing, as they came, upon a number of negroes. In a short timo the whole town was up iu arms, and the citizens were out iu the street, under the belief that a very large marauHog party had attacked the place, and organized as quickly as possible, while the daring freebooters were gallopin? about and firing ramdom shots. They returned the fire, and a sharp conflict ensued. A considerable number of negroes are said to have been engaged, believing themselves the special object of the attack, and whites and blacks fought together against the common enemy. By . pcrsovering efforts the citizens succeeded in driving off the assailants, capturing two of them, and probably wounding several others. A number of both whites and blacks who defended the town are reported wounded, but none seriously. The people of Versailles were greatly ex?Perated, and it was with the utmost difficulty that the prisoners were saved from lynchiDg as they were being taken to the jail. Who the maurading party were or where they iamu iioiu is not known. Xfccy are supposed to have been from the Kentucky River region, and their object seems to have been plunder. A body of ten men went to a house in the neighborhood, vherc a servant girl named Nellie Conner was employed, and, dragging her out. con veyed her to a piece of wood several hundred yards distant. Hero they had a bucket of tar in readiness, and, stripping the unfortunate woman of every particle of her clothing, ia Epite of her cries and struggles, they bedaubed her from head to foot, leaving not an inch of her body or limbs free from the tenacious compound. Having finished their horrid work, they left her to stagger alone to the nearest house, where she was kindly taken in and cared for. The man of the house immediately order

ed a quantify of tfarra. water, and, by great exertion, succeeded in removing the tar, though the poor woman came near dying during the night. ; ; Medical aid was promptly summoned, and, with good care, she soon recovered sufficiently to relate the details of her misfortune.

Yesterday she was brought to this city, and her story ws laid before the Chief of Police. She is said to be a young woman of good appaarance, and is about twenty-two years of age. Her face is almost raw from the effects of the tar, and her hair was shorn' close to her head, in order to relieve her from the surplus of her involuntary toilet. The only cause, thus far assigned, for the gross outrage perpetrated upon Ler is, that she had repeated some neighborhood scandal in regard to somebody's wife. We shall, doubtless, be able to ascertain more satisfactory particulars, at an early day. None of the parties engaged in this atrocious affair have yet been arrested.
