Dear Courier : Capt. Tumor receiv
ed orders last night about 9 o’clock or
dering him on detached service, and to
move his command to this piano, to re
lieve Co. I. Accordingly we moved to
day, nnd had not got all our tents up
before wo heard heavy oannonading be’
low Fort Jackson, which was promptly
responded to by Cuuston’s 111uO' Lotto’
vy. The red flag at tho Fort was soon
run up, which was a signal that the
enemy were advancing by the North
River. Orders wore immediately given
for us to fall into line of battle by Maj.
Lamb who commands this post, nnd in
a few minutes wo woro off to support
battery Lee, but by tho time wo nnivod
there the firing hud censed, Thero was
one largo gunboat nnd a floating butte
ry that came up, doubtless to gob tho
rungesof our guns. The Fort and bnt-.
tory Leo did not firo a gun. although
tho enemy’s shells went over tho butto-
ry, and one over tho Fort. Tho enemy
flrod grape nnd oauistcr at tho pickets
at tho .Spindles, which is below tho bat
tery, and in about ono and a half miles
of tho boats, but did them no duthago.
All is quiet again.
It becomes my painful duty to re
cord tho datli of private John M. Roy.
nulds, who died on the morning of tho
30th ult., of Erysipelas, produced by
the wounds inflicted by private Samuel
Fuller, Tho particulars of the difll-
culty I gave you in a former letter. Mr,
Fuller was court martialcd and sen
tenced to fifteen days hard labor, und
when not nt work, with a ball nnd chain
to his leg nnd cos fined to the guard
tent, but as lli« Judge Advocnto omit
ted to record tho ovidenco and the
names of tho witnesses, tho Colonel
disapproved of tho scnlonco and re
manded him back to his company for
duly. This was on the 27th Septcm
bor, Reynolds died on the 30lh. Full
er was then arrested again and placed
under guard to be delivered over to tho
civil authorities, when demanded. A
Coroner’s Inquest was ordered and
held over tho body of the deceased,
and the jury found that ho came to his
death from wounds inflicted by Samuel
Fuller, and upon the iuots given in
evidence, they found a ohnrgo of man’
slaughter against Fuller. lie had not
been sent for by the civil authorities
when we left to day.
W. T. Morris nnd Jas. M. Pay no nr
rived to-day from Rome. It. Dollar who
has been sick for several weeks past at

Samuel Fuller was arrested and turn,

placed in jail yesterday evening, to

Stand Wuttc, the Cherokee Chief.
Tile following letter from one of our.
subscribers gives some interesting par
ticulars in relation to tho family of the
new Ukcrokeh Chief, Stand Watie:
Hightower, Gii., October 3, 1802.
Editor Rome Courier:—I see pub
lished in your paper an extract from
the Fort Smith Bulletin, 12th, giving
a’detailed account of the massacre of
Lieut. Col. Thomas 1’. Taylor, of Stand
Wntio’s Regiment. That paper freely
expresses tho opinion that John Ross
had an understanding with the Fedor-
als, and the taking him prisoner wus
a mere blind. This is also tho opinion
of others. All these people I know
well. John Ross was tho son of a
Scotchman, named Dan. Ross, and his
mother was n half Chcrokeo, nnd my
opinion of him is, that lie was rassed
to bo unfriendly to the American peo
ple, nnd more particular to tho South,
ern people. In the last war with Eng
land he took no part whatever that I
know of.
But Major Ridgo, who lived about a
mile above your city, did not tho part
of a biave soldier, with Gen. Jackson,
in punishing the hostile Creek Indians,
Major Ridgo was nearly a full Cher
okee, but lie Lad n sensible mind, and
was ns brave ns any man, nnd was u
true friend to the South, ami for that
reason was murdered by the Ross
party. Ilis son John Ridgo was also
murdered for tho sumo reason.
lloudinot was formornlly a ll'stie,
nnd own brother to Stand Wutie, hut
was also murdered for his friendship to
tho South. Major Ridge was own
uncle to Boudinot and Stand ITatie,
lining a brother to their father, nnd it
would bo a good net if NValic could re
taliate upon John Ross.
Thomas P. Taylor was tho son of

THE SOUTHERN CROSS.
By Ellen Key Blunt, daughter of the
author of the Star Spangled Banner,
how living in Paris,
In tho nnino of God 1 Amen!
Stand for our Southern rights,.
Over ye Southern men
The God of Battles fights 1
Fling the Invaders far,
Hurl back their work of woo—
The voice is tho voice of a brother,
But the hands are tho hands of n foe,
Tlioy come with a trampling army,
Invading our native sod—
Stand, Southerners, fight and conquer,
In tlie name of the mighty God !
They are singing our song of triumph,
Which wus made to make us free ;
While tliey’ro breaking away the heart
strings
Of our nation’s harmony—
Sadly it floatotli from us,
Sighing o’or land and wave,
’Till lhuto on tho lips of tile poet,
It sleeps in liis Southern grave.
Spirit and song departed 1
Minstrel and minstrelsy'1
Wo mourn thee, heavy hearted—
But wo will, wo shall bo free.
They arc waving our Flag above us,
Willi a despot's tyrant will,
Willi our blood tlioy have' stained its
colors.
And cull it holy still.
With tearful eyes, but steady hand,
We’ll tear its stiipes apart,
And fling them, liko broken fetters.
That tuny not hind tho heart.
But we’ll save our Stars of glory,
In the might of The Sacred sign
Of Him! who lias fixed forever
Our Southern cross to shine.
Stand, Southerners! fight and conquer
Solemn and strong und sure—
The strife shall not be longor
Than God shall bid endure.
By the life, which only yesterday,
Came with the infant’s breath !
By tho feet, winch ere the morn, may
Tread to tho Soldier’s death !
By tho blood which cries to Iloavou !
Crimson upon our sod,
Stuml South enters! stand nnd conquer!
In tho name of the mighty God!

Sieged and McDowell. 1 —The Cincin

es a lettei purporting to give the par
ticulars (by nn eye witness) of the diffi
culty between Siegel mid McDowell, re-
1 orted some days ago. Tlie substance
of it is that Siegel, wliilo eng'ngihg the
enemy, observed McDowell waving a
handkerchief to tlie rebels. lie imme
diately rodo up mid demanded nn ex

JBgyllormos, writing to tho Charles
ton Mercury, foots up the Yankee loss
as follows:
The Yunkecs confess to a loss of
5,203 in a singlo corps at Slmrpsburg.
They had there six corps mid one di
vision. It is fair then, to put down
their total loss there mid at Botclcr’s
Mills at 25,000. Add 11,500 prisoners
at Harper’s Ferry, and 500 for killed
and wounded ; also, 3000 at Boonsboro’
—a low estimate—and tlie weok’s work
foots up a loss to McClellan of 40,000
men. Pope’s campaign of two months
could not lir.ve cost him less than 20,-
000. During this time Kirby Smith
used us 8000 at Richmond', Bragg cap
tured 5000 at Munfordsv.ille, 1800 at
Cave City, nnd 3000 at Green River
Bridge—total 27,800; whilst Loving’s

Shoals of Counterfeit Money.
A correspondent of tho Mobile. Tri
bune, writing from Pino Woods,30 miles
NVest of Alexandria, under date of
Sept. 13, says:
Tho whole of this part of the coun
try is in quite a high state of excite
ment about the grand beef swindle—
and rent assured it is a grand affaiv. It
appenrs that some four or five individ
uals came to this part of tho country
from.Texns.and purchased wagon horses
Ac., at it very high price ; nnd in Texas
it is said they havo buogbt over six
thousand beeves at high prices, for the
Government, nnd have paid for them
in what they cnll Confederate money.
Tho beeves are now arriving hero in
largo numbers. I met three droves
of them yesterday. One of tho swin
dlers was arrested day before yesterday
nnd imprisoned in Alexandria, nnd

the balance of them. Thel one that
was nrrestsd in Alexandria had on Ins
person nt tlie time of tlie arrest some
$>14,0i)0 of the money. I went down
tho next morning with several gen
tlemen ot' the place to oxnmino the
money, and was able to detect it at
onco. In tho whole lot their was
only about $000 in good money—the
balance in counterfeit. It is said
that they have put $200,000 in circula

The Horrors in Minnesota. -St. Paul
Sept. 15.—The horrors of the present
Indian wav are increasing. It is without
a precedent. Over fivo hundred desti
tute refugees are now in the city, depen
dent upon tho citizens. There aro more
than the above at St. Peter, and many
are leaving for Illinois, going in every

One woman died hero yesteyday from
wounds of fourteen buckshot. Of her
seven children, two are living, onowas
starved, and four were murdered in
flicii mother’s sight.—Tho two remain
ing were tomahawked and left for dead.
An Indian shows his dislike to enpturo
children by gouging tlieir eyes out with
any shnrp instrument, or chopping tlie
fingers from tlieir hands. Thero are
many such instances', a few now in this
city.

From the Army of Norhern Virgin
ia.—We have reason to believe that Mc
Clellan’s whole urrny are again upon
Virginia soil. They are snid to have
crossed the Potomao on Sunday at tlireo
points—Harper's Ferry, Shepberdslown
and NVillinmsport. Our forces fell back
before the advance i»f tlie enemy, nnd
were at last accounts in the neighbor
hood of Bunker Hill, a eommunding
position, ten miles south of NVinclies-
ter.
That Gonernl Leo lias allowed tlie en
emy undisputed pass of tlie river, when
ho could so easily havo commanded tlie
fords with-liis artillery, seems to migur
well for liis confidence in liis ability to
meet him in thw open field, und that
lie desires to draw him on to a selected
battle field. Another great battle, per
haps tlie decisive conflict of the cam
paign, is believed to bp imminent. The
telegraph is in operation between Rich
mond nnd Winchester, and any hour
may bring, us the intelligence that the
great struggle lias begun.
If the representations made by per
sons who should be well in formed, aro
to be credited, our prospects of victory
are more than encouraging. Our army
is numerically stronger and in all re
spects in better trim nnd condition than
when it crossed tlie Rnpidun in August

cessive victories, is suporb.
