-Fort Smith, Ark., Sept. 2, 1863.
la the language of the Circus Clown,
"Kerc we arc!" Geo. Blant, with Iris
gallant array, after "chasing 'the fugitive
rebels to within, forty odd miles of Red
River, returned to the Canadian River.
There he took Cloud's brigade and marched
for this place. The other two brigades
were differently disposed of. Col. Judson,
with the First Brigade, returned to Fort
Blunt, by way of North Fork Town, taking
in bis way Mcintosh's two Creek rebel reg
iments, 'who had manifested a desire to lay
down their arms and resume their allegiance
to the Union Government. Col. Bowen,
irith the Third Brigade, went to a camp at
Webber's Falls. Bushwhackers and other
questionable characters had been, prowling
about there, and while the balance of the
army was off after Steele, Cooper and Ca
ball, it was necessary to have a protecting
force in the vicinity of Fort Blunt to pre
vent a few thousand of the lousy rebels
from doubling on their track and u bother
log the game " at our depot of supplies.
Then,. along the old military road, as 1
aid, Blunt, with his Staff and Body Guard,
and Cloud's brigade, ploughed their way
towards Fort Smith. YVe met Cabell, with
3,000 or 4,000 men, twelve miles west of
"here, comped within a couple of miles of
him, marched at daylight to attack him, but
lie was gono to the southward. Cloud
hashed him fifteen or twenty miles, and
liad a brief engagement with him, but after
a few rounds Cabell's men fled in all direc
tions. In this skirmish, brief as it was, one of
the most worthy and gallant soldiers Kan
sas has produced, fell. The enemy fixed
an ambush-of two of their companies in
omc undergrowth by the roadside. As
Cloud's advanced guard, led by Capt. Ed.
Lines, approached, they fired, and Ed. fell
from' his horse, shot through the bowels.
The ball entered his loins on the left side,
and passed entirely through his body, com
ing our near the right hip. He survived
about four hours. In death his face wore
the expression of constant courage and of
calm and dauntless energy that marked it
in the discharge of all his duties, in camp
and in battle. No braver or more manly
heart has ceased to throb it is another of
fering of Kansas to the country she has
not yet ceased to bleed j may her sacrifices
of precious life be recompensed in her vic
tories ; at least her glorious record will be
full.
Before Cloud's return, Gen. Blunt took
the balance of the brigade and entered
Fort Smith. No force disputed the posee
bion of the place. Many citizens had
already fled. Some of those who remained
were 60ur and gloomy, but the greater pro
portion Becmud disposed to mako the best
of it The Germans, who are quite num
erous, welcomed the Union army with open
hearts and hands. All they had was at our
disposal. Tho boys on short rations fared
well, and flour at twenty live dollar? a hun
dred, and meat at a dollar a pound, were
freely launched out to feed them. The
town was quietly possessed, the Fort was
garrisoned, and here wo are.
Gen. Blunt intended to return in a day
or two to Fort Gibson (or Blunt) and so to
Fort Scott and homeward. But his illness
has increased upon him, and he is unable to
sit up. It will be a week or tea days be
fore be will be able to move.
Col. Judson had returned to Fort Blunt.
Tbe Creeks have nearly all deserted the
rebel Btandard. They will not leave their
homes. Mcintosh left for Red River with
only about one hundred and fifty men from
his two regiments. In less than thirty
days the entire Nation will have returned
Co their allegiance.
I do not know as you are awrro that the
Interior Department, at Washington, has
determined to colonize the Kansas Indians
U the Indian Territory, leaving their lands
open to purchasers, and settlement by white
emigrants. Just as Gen. Blunt was start
ing across the Arkansas, he received from
Gen. Schofield notice of this fact, with
authority to orgaoizo the Kansas Indians
into companies and battalions, and to set
them to win in fighting tbe lands they are
to possess. As no rebel force is left in tbe
Indian Territory, all their army having
been driven to Red River, this work will
ot'bo necessary.
The late sacking of. Lawrence has created
a feeling of universal gloom in this army.
Execrations on incompetent authorities,
threats of vengeance on the perpetrators,
and those who did not prevent the gigantic
crime, on official indolence, wire-working
and chicanery, on the false and on the
foolish, fill, our camps. There is a day
of reckoning, and a ternblc account it will
be. 1

were winked at by tbe soldiers, who made
bnt a feeble resistance. Several stores

Whereas, The commander of this Bis

and " Jacobins," while it appropriates to
itself all the Law and Order and can only

therefore
Resolved, 1. That clemency to guerrillas
and rebels is cruelty to loyalists, that milk
and water for traitors is poison to patriots,
and that military commanders can convert
rebel assassins only as civil courts convert
convicted murderers by killing them.'
2. That the loyal people who furnished
tbe army, and the popular power which
sustains it, have a legitimate right -to a
voice in the selections of the military com
manders to rule over them.
3. That the Missouri delegation in the
Cabinet and Congress, which have forced
Gamble and Schofield upon that State and
Schofield and Ewing upon Kansas, has
basely betrayod the truest Unioa men in
the Department of the Missouri, and that
a military policy which originates in a
caucus of politicians, can give satisfaction
only to bushwhackers in the field and dem
agogues at home.
4. That the declaration of martial law by
Gen. Ewing, in Leavenworth, a city as
thoroughly loyal as it is profounely peace
ful, thus withdrawing troops from the ex
posed border to a protected city, was an act
of despotism uncalled for in itself, hateful
to law abiding men and fraught with dan
ger to the rights of citizens.
5. That the hunting of fugitives from
bondage on the soil of Kansas, is a crime
damnable in atrocity, and that every person
engaged in it should be branded with in
famy. 6. That Kansas will ever stand true to
her martyred dead and her living heroes by
adhering to the principlo of freedom for
all, knowing that liberty is a divine right
and that human enactments are powerless
to abrogate it.
7. That the re-establishment of the De
partment of Kansas is imperatively de
manded', and that we cannot expect peace,
security or success in the field, until the
vast territory embraced in that Department
is placed under the control of a single
Commander-in-Chief. '"
8. That tbe removal of the District
Headquarters from Kansas to Missouri was
a part of the scheme to foist upon us the
pro slavery policy of that State ; and that
it has resulted in giving renewed confidence
to bushwhackers, and in raids upon Kansas
so wanton and barbarous as to find no par
allel in history.
. 9. That the SchofieldGamble policy has
for its object the perpetuation of slavery
in Missouri, and the holding of Kansas as
a subject province.
10. That although we are fully conscious
of the meed of praise due to tho one rebel
who returns, we cannot help believe that
some consideration is due the ninety and
nine loyal men who went not astray.
11. That the pro-slavery conspiracy now
organized throughout the North, for the
purpose of carrying the next national elec
tion, and betraying the country into the
bands of its enemies, receives its aid in
Kansas only from the advocates of the
present conservative military policy, a poli
cy which has already allowed hundreds of
rebels to return to Missouri and permitted
them to ravage our border.
12. That inasmuch as the people of
Kansas are here ts-day, willing and able to
destroy tbe bushwhackers, and their ser
vices are aefused by Schofield's order No.
92 which prohibits them from crossing the
line, we ask of the military authorities in
demnity for the past and security for the
future, and for this purpose demand that
they station in every neighborhood in
Southern Kansas a sufficient military .force
to ensure their protection,
13. That Schofield's order No. 92 is the
tyrannical act of a commander who will
neither destroy rebels himself nor allow
others to do so, the clear effect of which is
to protec- guerrillas ia Missouri, aad to pat
us, the unconditional Union men of Kan
sas, in a false position before the country.
14. That the present conservative policy
which defends Kansas, on the soil of Kan
sas, is cruelty to our State, and that we caa
only be made secure by offensive move
ments, which shall destroy the murderers
in their dens ; and that, uatU the trie pol
icy is inaugurated, we demand that the
military authorities shall seise three hun
dred of the men who are bushwhacker to
day and farmers to-morrow, and hold them
as hostages, to be executed whenever araid
shall be made upon Kansas.
15. That if the Government cbntlnues to
force npon us the defensive system, we ask
our Congressional delegation to ask the im
mediate return of every Kansas' regiment.
16. Tbaf we heartily respond to the" in
vitation of our only true1 friends in ' Mis

appoint a. committee to visit Washington,

last Tsaaessse Occupied by Buras Ids.
A special to the Tribune from -Cincinnati
confirms tbe ovation the troops re
ceived at Knoxville ou tbe occupation by
tbe Federals. The town was decorated
with flags which had been hidden for two
years. Gen. Burnside make an address to
a lnrge meeting the day after the occupation.
The day after Foster arrived a procession
of women whose husbands were in the
Union service came from the Country, and
was nearly a mile long. Valuable'machine
shops and foundries were found in Knox
ville ; also two 'million pounds of salt, a
large quantity of wheat, and many thous
and hogs.
The prisoners captured at Cumberland
Gap was the 2d North Carolina, 1st Vir
ginia, 1st Georgia, and several companies
of artillery. They surrendered immediate
ly. The Georgia regiment, 800 strong, was
capt used once before by uen. tfurnside at
Roanoke Jsland. On the night of the 7th
two companies cf our troops stole through
tho rebel pickets, and burned a mill that
bad supplied 'the rebels with meal, in sight
of tbe rebel camp.
Burnside was to return to Knoxville on
the lOtb, where he will remain until the
decision of the War Department in regard
to his resignation is made.
A small body of rebels is still near the
Virginia line.
Tbe saltpetre works which the rebels had
in operation are now within our lines.
Ready communication is hud with Rose
crans. All of Burnside's troops marched over
two hundred and fifty miles, and a portion
three hundred miles, averaging twenty
miles a day over our difficult roads.
In the whole campaign but one casualty
occurred. Of sickness there is so little
that tbe surgeon in charge of the hospital
at Knoxville asked to be relieved for want
of work.
The details of Negley's engagement at
Dug Gap have come in. From all that we
can gather, the casualties are light. Negley
retired three miles, to the foot of Lookout
Mountain. Banks' Division was also en
gaged. Dug Gap is four miles horth irom
New Lafayette, where the main column of
Bragg's army was posted at the time of the
engagement. It is thought that Bragg
feared to lose control over his retreat tu
Rome. He is retreating slowly, to avoid a
repetition of the scenes at Tullahoma, and
prevent straggling. Neverthelebs large
numbers of deserters come in daily. Three
hundred deserters of the 19th Tennessee
came in in a body. At least six thousand
deserters have arrived here sinco the evacu
ation, and large numbers are said to be on
Missionary Ridge. Crittenden is reported
to have occupied Lafayette today, and the
army is again concentrated.
The Assault oa BaaUer.
A Morris Island letter of the 9th to the
New York Herald, gives an account of the
recent boat expedition agaiust Sumter.
TbeHoiilla consisted of fiftecd or twenty
boats, manned by over 100 sailors, in com
mand of Lieut. Commander Wissahtchow,
and 100 marines under Captain McAoley.
The entire force was commanded by Com
modore Stovens, of the monitor Pstapsco.
The boats -were towed within a short dis
tance of the Fort, whence they advanced.
Three boats, under command of Williams,
Lieut. Reamy and Ensign Jf orter, landed,
and the parties attempted to run up the
river to the parapet, when they were fired
upon by musketry, and hand grenades
thrown down upon them. Tbe slope was
so abarp that they were unable to reach the
parapet,
A signal was given from the fort, and in
an instant all the rebel batteries opened on
tn,e ibrt and shelled it terribly. Three
boats were mashed, and all who landed
were killed or captured.
Lieut. Bradford, Sf the Ma'rines, was
mortally .wounded and captured; Commo
dore Williams, Lieutsi Reamy, Pr&tnn,
Brower and Bruce, Dr. Wheeler and En
sign. Porfer, were" also captured.
Forty or fifty sailors and marines were
killed and wounded, and the entire list of
casualties will number eighty. The' re
mainder retired in safety.
A flag of truce states our captured men
and officers were in Fort Sumter, and well
treated.
