rroiii lh Army of thf Kananln.
Tho position of affairs in Western Tirpaii
j, full of interest. We have dates fr,.tn
Meadow Bluff to the 25th inst., (Wednes
day hist). I au order to Major hunn,
flri *4’ Quartermaster, General Floyd’s
uses the following language, which
we extract:
“ Army of the Kanawha, )
Meadow Bluff. Sept. 25, 1801. f
•The enemy have concentrated their en
tire available force in Western and Nnrtb
wt tern Virginia on this road, and it is ab
-lately necessary to the command of Gen.
Floyd and to the cause that he should have
reinforcements. The enemy have already
appeared before Gen. Wise in large force.
Gen. Lee went to his succor with f..ur of
Gen. Floyd’s regiments, which leaves the
latter with a very small force. Hence you
*•* the necessity ot rapid reinforcements.
“I*. S. Gen. W ise was fighting yester
day. but with what success is not learned.”
Gfi* had brought with him from
Huntersville no troops, and was attended
only by an eseort of twenty men and three
baggage wagons.
M’ adow Bluff is a str<ng position, com
mand'ng the approach to Gwisbtirg, wheth
er l*y the main turnpike road from Gauley
Bridge or thv \\ ilderness r*vad from Siim
m- rsviile, or the road from Boyer’s ferry
on New River. At this point General
H'yd is stationed with what of his command
is left after the four regiments taken forward
I v Geueral Lee, and is verv strongly forti
fied. :• . . ,
Geueral Wise is West of Meadow Bluff,
fifteen miles, on Sewell mountain. In a very
strong position. The four regiments taken
up to him by Gen. Lee will increase our force
th< re to about five thousand men. This
number was doubtless attacked by llosen
crauz Wednesday last at the head of four
teen thousand. It was hoped that Generals
Lee and Wise would be able to hold the po
sti ii and cheek the enemy ; if not, they
would withdraw to Meadow Bluff, where uo
doubt is entertained but that the uuited force
ot the two commands could repel the eueuiv.
The public will look with intense interest
for the result of these attacks of Rosencrauz.
A tine Mississippi regiment, under Col. Rus
s-11, and four hundred of Col. Pbillippe’ Le
gion, of Georgia, reached General Floyd,
respectively. Monday and Weduesday.—
II irhmond I)!s. 27.
Qiinoy, 111.,23—via Nashville 29.
The seige of Mulligan at Lexington com
menced on Thursday the 12th and continued
day to day until Friday last, 5 P M., when
the I uion flag was hauled down. The men
fought 59 hours without water, and had only
three barrels of vinegar to tjueuch their
thirst. The supply of water was from the
river, and was cut off after a desperate fight.
On Wednesday Gen. Prentiss assumed coui
luand of Northern Missouri, aud started
west yesterday. He is now west of Brook -
fielJ, and is cut off by the rebels ; supposed
to he a part of Gen. Price’s forces. Great
fears are entjrtuiued that he will be cap
tured. 21th.—Communication with Gen.
Prentiss is still cut off. Nothing heard from
him since yesterday.
W ASHINGTON, 24th.—The opponents of
General Fremout charge that he could have
prevented the necessity of Mulligan’s sur-
D uder by sending timely reinforcements. —
Advices received from St. Louis by Fre
aont’s friends state that be had no troops
to spare, and that it was entirely impossible
i rto himstrengthen Mulligau’s position. Fre
ni ut telegraphed the War Department that
he was on the eve of starting with a heavy
t roe, and hoped to be able to dislodge the
rebels from their position at Lexington.
Nashville, 28th.—Gen. (Sumter) Au
hr? in has assumed the command of Ken
tucky. He says that he comes to enforce,
U"t to make laws, and protect the lives aud
property of the people; and that Kentucky
ha- vainly striven to keep at peace with all
h* r neighbors. He calls upon the people to
rally to his standard. He issued another
pr tarnation in which he said that “under
handing that apprehensions are entertained
by the citizens of the State, who have hitb
?rtu been opposed to the policy now adop
ted, he gives notice that no Kentuckian will
bo arrested who remains at home attending
to his business, and does not take part by
action or speech agaiust the Geueral or State
Government, or hold correspondence with or
give aid to the rebels.”
The Louisville Journal of the 25th re
port* that 8 prisoners were arrested by Gen.
‘to naan on the charge of treason. J. C.
ilreckenridge is reported to have passed
Mount Sterling on the 20th, at 5 o elock,
g'iug towards the Virginia line.

St. Louis, 23.' —A despatch to Gen.

gan states that the Hessians lost 87 killed
a*, i 140 wounded. The rebel loss is up-
J. to be about 800 killed and wounded.

IT IS A COMMON OBSERVATION that there
are more sufferers from debility, among Ameri
cans, than can be found among any other civilized
nation. The muon is obviout. We take too lit
tle exercise, aud forget the wants of the body in
the ab>oibing pursuits of business. In all such
cases, ordinary medicines can do little good.— j
\\ hat is required is just such a tonic and in vigors
tor as Dr. J. Hosteuer has given to the world in
his CELEBRATED “ BITTERS.” The weak and
nervous denizen of the counting-house, the ex
ha u.ittd toiler upon the shop-board, aud the pros
trated student of the midnight lamp, have found a
wonderful regenerator in the “ Bitters,” and pre
fer it to more pretentious, hut less efficacious |
medicines. But it should not be forgotten that
the agent which is wo magical in its influence upon
a frame which is merely debilitated, is equally
powerful in assisting nature to expel the most ter
rible forms of disease. Who would not give it a
trial?
