JULY 18 FROM THE SEAT OP WAR Encampment 31 fs 4th Reot's.,) Buckhanon, July 4, 1801 J Bob, Tan and my littlo solf are Rented In one of tho mo.st beautiful, pictur epque and lovely places nature) ever former) fur tha delight ol man. We sit upon th banks of the Bucklinnon river, 'neath the lovoly shado of beautiful trees cheered by tho rcfroshini breezes for which the hills of old Virginia aro bo notod. At our feet wind tho truly rmiiint.ic U iokhanon through thn hills whoso lofty summits reach heavenward almost out of sight. At our sides and all around us grows tho 'Liurol' with its binw tiful bloss mis. alo the 'Sweat birch' nnd 'Mountain toa 'Tis beauiilil 'tis lovely! Wa have now m irched on loot 10 miles. The day wo loft CUrksbura; wo mnrchod 9 miles, starting in the afternoon about two o'clock. We stavod in that cimo tho next dy, then moved on to camp E'k Creek, a distanco of about C milos. Wo stopped there about a day, where wo wero joined by about 5,000 troops consisting of Artillery, cavalry and infantry. We arrived bore day betoro yesterday evenine about 5 o'clock afier a faMsuins march of 15 miles and are now encamped in a b-autilul valley on the bottoms of the Buckhar.nn river Bit- ckhaoon is a hno littlo place ol, I judge, 2 00b inhabi ants and latoly 'n tha hands on the secessionists, who have, through their 'kind- nes' propared a very comlortuble place fo our encampment. Wo expected to havo to fight some lor this position but nnry fifW they heard tho Stars aud Strip-3 fl'itierin proudly in Iho breeze and they fl)w like dhuft'belore tho wind,' much io tha delight of tho citizens, who are principally all loyal to the Union. We understand that the traitors of the South havo sued for poace wa say 'giva them peace,' but where? 'In a traitor's gravo. No never do I want to see poace restoreo till tha wrongs and insu;ts commit ted by them on that glorious Banner shall bo fully, bloodily, swoetly and satisfactorily avenged till tbo name of Eli.swolith shall drive terror to their hearts till Sumter shall again be known as a key to one of the links that binds tegother that golden chain of tho American Union till tho funds in specie and otherwise which wore cowardly stolon yea worne than stolon, shal be ro placed and tho oliendora punished till wo are free to go Irom Maine to Florida. Irom the Atlantic O tho Pacific and express our sentiments freoly without boing in danger of insult or injury in short till tho hands of brotherly friendship can ba more freoly clasped than )er. Ob, you man dovil (Jolf Davis)! bow can you havo tho laco to cry 'Mace!' after causing the woo you havo to this pure and nndeQIed land? Friends, would you lino us to come nome: I mesumo vou would: but as dearly as 1 love my homo and friends I havo no desiro to return till all is sallied and poaco is again restored, which to suit mo, should bo in the way I have stated. We havo before us a loumoy on foot ol about 225 miles through which, judging from the past, we will all piss saicly. Uur Colonol is all that could ba desired in every way: lie never marches U9 too far without a rest; and always selects our camp where water and other accouimouutions ore near at hand. There is not Captain in the 'gallant Fourth' who is moro interested in the general wol'aro of his company than Capt. Carpenter, nor is tnore ono wnoso Kinunuss is moro highly appreciated by the 'boys though kind and accommodating, na is prompt, firm and resolute in tho discharge ot his duties as Captain. There ia one paint in which we fail to bo suited ond that is we do not sea tho papors as we did in Camp Djnnison that is us boys; I presume the proper ollicers aro kept posted. Thero is, I understand, a telegraph to bo erected aloni our lino of nurch as wa go, it is now, I believe, within 8 or 10 miles of us. This detachment is, as I presume you know, under command of Gen. McClelland, of Ohio, who, with Staff, aro present and move with us. We were out this morning for inspection and battallion drill and at 4 p. m. wo g on company drill, that is tho way wo spend our Fourth. The only difference I seo ba-tweon tn is and any other day was a salute fired by Ibe artillery this morning. Fearing you may not understand fully why I headed my letter Encampment 3d and 4ihU gts., I will just state th t we are both together in the same field with but one guard. Yours &c, B.

Libkrtt, Ohio,) July 0, 1861. 1" Mr. IUmskt Denr Sir: Another short article from this plnco seems ru'cosstry at this time, providing you may see fit to admit it in your "nfon A dvocatb," 9 style 1 by tha bi heirled Union DomionU whose article nppears in the D'-moinilic 'Banker' of this wck, the poor Union Dituokrat nppcars severly touched by th communi-eation in the R puhlif.no of last wenk. But it is to be liopsd thtt he will not be under tl e necessity of leivinif his under clothes by tho wayside n.rraia. But why do Union Dutrtocrats tike it so much to heart, sinrie it was intended only for dis-unionists? B;it soma tnn an so very sensitive that if one is accused of disunion sentiments, tlioy are all ready to raise the howl and say we, the democrats, are the only Union men here ab uts, nnd the republicans arj forme 1 in a clique to abolish slaviry everywhere; is this through i iorviM or is it majice? Thi latter seem t the moso prohibits, since tin writer of iho 'B inar' article is highly educated in militirv affiirs and some ollipr particular evolutions. He, tho Union democrat, would lmve people beli'vo that the republicans would net into church fights and tell lies etc. Well when we believe he is a Union man, ' o will of course believe such charges na that. But wo will say to their credit here that their colors do not change nsoflen nsi that of the Banner, for lie is ready at all times to en;;iQ;a on either side, he appears anxious t pat down rebellion and at the same time c;ive assistance and aid to those Anion rt us that are avowedly disunion men, now wo would ak those Union democrats, the real old hi-kory, striped and starry all over dennnrats, why it is that they can't come out end talk their sentiments? Why they find fault with any nd everything dune or transacted under our present pvivernmsnt, why so much unconstitutionality in the Chicago Platform, why will some chuckle when they hear of our soldiers getiinp; in a tiht place. Bat this is t a ease with none but lite particular Union democrats. But see how our Union democrat tries to screen them that nre tjuide.l by his time ly councils, btand by the Constitution, as he says, yet the President has not the authority to suppress rebellion, the only true modo of reconstruotion is by com- I promise. War is disunion, final eternal separation. Now my dear Union friend why did you not tell us tha first cause of the war, we anlicipate that your ansivor would be: ltt the C iicao Platform is not in nccoidanco with tho Constitution, became you claim the rrl under the conslituMon to carry slavery anywhere you see fit which you are requested to point out. 21 the Republican party are charged with wap-in?; war nijainst the Souih for the purpose of freeing the slaves. No doubt there are some in the Siuth that aro ignorant enough to believe such reports. But gentlemen of education in this chris-tain country, certainly a good union democrat would not adhere to such trash. But8iich union men offered from one to t o dollars apiece to keep the post office in democratio hands, but it seems they did not raise enough to bribe the Post Ofllce Department. Now it will be seen that there is scarcely a sentence ia Union Democrat's article butconiains a lie, the article condemns itself without comment. The charga of a democrat receiving a leUer that his house was to be burned and iiis life and that of his wife was in danger, ia one of them, this said democrat did not go '.o Sparta to lepel a mob. The charge of certain democrats to be mobbed is another one; the charge igainst himself of being a union man is another, the charge of church fighting is another, the charge ef republicans scouring the country to proclaim them d sunionists do that would be nil foolishness for it ia well known without republicans goiii to that trouble, the chargo that republicans hero havo com pared the execution of John Brown with the crucifixion of Jesus Christ is also false; there are probably none hero but what are in favor of free speech in this country. But if a union man is 8tiun up in the Sou'.h for free thinking it is all right witii union democrats. I have ex tended this article all ready farther than I intended yet we have not policed nil his remarks but at another time we may see fit to notice tho rest. Respectfully yours, Unionist. A story is told of Senator Joseph Lane, of Oregon, which will bear repe ition: Accounts of the Senator's rebel Sentiments and movements preceded his return home, and, it is said, rendered him very unpopular, particularly after tha nttack on Fort Sumter. When ho reached the s i ores of the Pacific he began to ftel bit unpopularity in various ways, but no remark that was mado to him in his hearing was more cutting than that of astago-driver with whom he had entered into conversation without disclosing his name. In the course of his talk the Senator took occasion to remark that he considered himself at that time about the worst abused man in the State. 'Well, I don't know about that,' replied the driver. 'If you are any worse abused t'jan that rascal, Jo. Lane, God help you.' Hon. R. O. Corwin, who was appointed by Government to select tha lands for the Delaware Indiana undor tha Leavenworth and Pawnee Railroad treaty, has written Soere- tarv Smith, renuesting the appointment of somo othor person to perform that duty. On ol tha directors of a publio institution not very far from Boston, addressed the inmates on tha 4th of July as 'Fellow con-viots.'Tha blockade of New Orleans is now effective, and is very troublesomo to, tha rebels. Mr. Grow' a Speech. The following is lbs speech Mr. Grow mado on taking .the Speaker's ohair of the IIouso of Uepresontolive'1: Qfiitlenvn of tin IIouit'tof Repretetitutivis, of tin Uniled Sbttet flf A vwica: Words of thanks for the honor conferred hy the vote just announoed would but feebly expre-ts tha heart's gratitude. While appreciating this distinguished mark of your con-fidunca, 1 am njt unmindful of the trying duties incident to the position to which you have assigned me. Surrounded at all times by grsvo responsibilities. U is doubly bo in this hour of national disaster, when every consideration of gratitude lo the past and obligation to the futura tendrils around the present. Four score years ago fifty -six bold merchants, larmers, lawyers, und mechanics, the representatives of a lew feeble Colonists, scattered along tho Atlantic soa'Kiard, met in Convention to found a new Empire, basod on tho aliuliabla rights of man, Sfvon ytnrs of bloody conflict ensued, and tha 4th of July 1770, iscannoniztd in tho hearts of the great and gool as tho jubilee of oppressed nationalities, and in the calendar ol heroic deads it marks a new era in the history of the race. 'I'lirco -quarters of a rentury havo passed away, and the few leebb Colonists, hemmed in by tho ocean in front, the wilderness and savages in the rear, have spanned a whole continent with a great ompira of free States, rearing through its vast wilderness the temples ofsciunca and of civilization on the ruins of savago li!o. Happiness seldom, if ever, equaled, has surrounded the domcstio fireside, and prosperity unsurpassed has crowned tho national energies, the liberties of the psopla secured at haina and abroad, whilo tliu National standard floated, 'honored and respected in every commercial mart in the world. 0:i tho returu of this glorious anniversary, after a period but little exceeding the allotted lifetime o I man, tho'people's re presentatives are convened in the Council Chambers of tho K.publio to deliberato,on tho m inns lor preserving the Oovoinment undor whose benign inlluence these grand results have ban achieved. A rebellion the most causeless in the history of the raco has developed a conspiracy of longstanding to destroy tha Constitution formed by the wisdom of our father! and tho Union, cemented by their blood. This conspiracy, nurtured for long yoars in secret councils, first devel-opus itself openly in acts of spoliation and plunder of publio property, with the connivance or under the protection of treason, enthroned in all the high places of the Government, and at last in armed rebellion for tha overthrow of tho best Government ever devised by man. Without an effort in the modo proscribed in tho organio law for a redress ol all grievances, tha malcontents appeal only to tho arbitrament of tha iword, insult tha nation's honor, and trample upon its Uts; inaugurato a revolution which, if successful, would end in establishing petty jining confederacies or anarchy upon the ruuwof t lie Uapublic and tho destruction ol its liberties. The 19th of April, cannonizad in the first otru'glo for American Nationality consecrated in the martyr blood of Warren, has its counterpart ia Ellsworth, anj the heroic deeds and patriotic sacrifices of tha struggle lor the establishment of tho Republic are being reproduced upon the battle-fields for its maintenance. Evory race and tongue of man almost ia represented in the grand legion of the Union, their standards proclaiming in a langu ge more impressive than words that hero indeed is the home of tho emigrant and the asylum of the exile, no matter where was his birthplace, or In what cliine his iufancy was cradled. Ha devotes his life to tbo defence of his adopted land, the vindieation of its honor, and protection of its lug, with tho flatno zeal with which he would guard his hearthstone and fireside. All parties, sects and conditions of men, not corrupted by tho institutions of human bond age, forgetting bygono rancors or prejudices, blend in ono phalanx for the integrity of tha Union and the porpotuity of the Republic. Long years of peace in tho pursuits of sirdid gain, instead of blunting tho patriotic devo tion ol loval citizens, seems but to have in to' sifted its development, when the existence of tho Government is assailed.

In viow of this grand demonstration for self preservation in the history of nationalities, desponding pat riotism in 'y be assured that the foundations ol our national groatness still stand strong and tho sentiment which beats to-day in every loval heart will for tho future be real iied. No 11 ig alien to tha sources of tho Mississippi will evor lloat permanently over its mouth till its waters are crimson in nu-aian gora, and not one foot of American soil can bo wrenched from the jurisdiction of the United States until it is baptized in lire and blood, f Vociferous applause upon the floor and in the galleries, wnich lasted for many minutes. Gentlemen, as your presiding ollicer.it becomes my duty toapprizeyou that any demonstrations ol approval or disapproval of anything dona or said during your sessions is in violation ok parliamentary decorum, and the Chair would also inform the porsons in tho gallo. ies that applauso by them is a violation of good order and s breach of the rules of the House. The Chair hopes, therefore, that any domonstra-lion of applause will not be repeated. In God is our trust, and tho 'Star Spangled Banner lorevcr shall wave, o'er tho land of tha freo and the home of tho brave.' Suppressed applause. Those who regard it as mere cloth bunting, fail to appreciate its symbolical power. Wherever civilization dwells or tha name ol Washington is known it bears on its fold tha concentrated powor of armies and navies, and surrounds tha votaries with a defense mote impregnable than a battloment o wall and tower-Wherever, on the earth's surface, an American citizen may wander, oalled hy pleasure, business or caprice, it is a shield to socure him against wrong and outrage; sava on the soil ol the land ol bis birth. As tha guard ians ol the rights and liberties of th people, your paramount duty is to make it honored at home as it is rospected abroad. A Government that cannot command tha loyalty of its own citizins is unworthy tha respect of the world; and a Government that will not protect its own loyal citizens deserves tha eontempt of tha world.

It is reported that there are 3,000 rebels ut Hunnewalt Station, who will attempt to burn Salt river bridge, east o Palmyra, to-night. The station house at Monroe has been burned, but tho telegraph line being cut, we are unable to learn to what extent the depredations are being carried. This blockade does not affect tho travel between this place and the East, as the locality of the trouble is east of Hudson, the junction of tho North Missouri railroad. Vigorous efforts will bo made to disperse the rebels. Bkelington, Vs., July 10. There was skirmishing yesterday.

About l,60Qf of the rebel cavalry then attempted to outflank Sigel and cut off his baggage train, which was three miles back, when a ro trogode movement was ordered. The (ruin was reached in good order and surrounded by infantry and artillery, and the retreat continued till a point was reached where the road passed through a high bluifon each side, at which place the en-my's cavalryjwas posted Ja htje numbers.By a feint, as if intending to pass around the bluff, Sit;el drew the cavalry in a solid body in the road at a distance of 350 yards from his position, when by a rapid movement of his artillery, be poured a heavy cross tiro of c nnister into their ranks; at the same time'lthe infantry" charged at double quic' time, and io ten minutes the State force, was scattered ia every direction.

Agent of the Hannibal & St. Joseph rail road, from Hannibal, brings the following account of affairs in that section: About 2 o'clock Wednesday morning a camp of Federal troops under Col. Smith, of the IGiu Illinois regiment, near Monroe Sta tion, some thirty miles west of Hannibal, embracing 300 of the 3d Iowa regiment, zuu ot the I b in Illinois, and about 100 of the Hannibal Home Guard, were attacked by 1600 rebels under Brigadier-General Harris. Although tht Federals were sur prised, they repelled the attack, and drove the rebels back, killing four, woundinc several, and capturing five prisoners and seven horses. General Harris retreated to Monroe, where another skirmish recur red, in which tho rebels were again re pulsed. Smith then took up a position and sent a messenger for reinforcement from Quincy. Smith was afterward surrounded by a largo force, but it wa thought he could hold out till reinforcements reached him. Most of the rebel troops were mounted. 1 lie 12th Illinois regiment, under Col onel Marsh, left the Arsenal yesterday, for some point down tha river, supposed to be Cape Girardeau.

McMeil publishes a proclamation' to the people of Missouri, slating that the suppression of the State Journal was in ' consequence of its giving aid and comfort to those in actual rebellion against the . United State Government, encouraging people to take up arms against that authority, to commit acts of violence and op . pression against loyal citizens, and by fabricating false reports respecting Ih United States troops, exciting disaffected citi zens) to commit overt act ot treason witn-. the view of entirely subverting the Federal authority in tha State. A gentleman from Hannibal last night . says Col Smith' oummand at Monro was reinforced by three hundred mounted . men from Illinois, yesterday afternoon,- ' when the rebel were attacked and dis- ' 1 persed.
