The Morning Branserigt, oo _NWEVADA. CIrrTr. WEDNESDAY MORNING, SEPT. 25, . ~J THE NEWS. 5 a aan Contrary to 6ur-expectations, the ‘pony’s : budget, this time, contains no news of a general battle on the right. bank of the Potomac. Inttead of a persistent advance of the Secession army, in, the direction of Washington, the battalions, which on the 14th of Septem. ber, were within three miles of Arlington Soci have beén thrown back, and Beauregard’s entire force is again ensconced within the *“trenchments at Manassas. It seems very cleat that Bc “uregard has no intention of attacking McClellan in front of Washing: ton, It may be his design to cross the Potomac, both above and below that city, and, relying for-aid on the rebels of Maryland, attempt the capture of the Federal Capital from the rear. For such a movement Gen. ~~ _MeClellan, no doubt, is” well prepared. As matters now stand in northeri Virginia a grand and decisive engagement can not be much longer postponed. As nothing in relation to Jeff. Davis appears in the news, the probability is that the report.of his death was either a hoax or 4 mistake of the telegraph. It seems that the Federal troops of Missouri are again in possession of St. Joe and ~~ the Hannibal Railroad. How they retook that position—whether by driving out the enemy or by the enemy’s evacuating it voluntarily—is not stated, It is gratifying to know that St. Joe is no longer in the keeping of the Vandals, who destroy railroads and-telegraph lines, and that direct communication between California and the East is-again open. Missouri is still the victim of a rancorous partisan warfare, which the Federal Government ought to bring toa close a8 speedily as possible. John A. Washington, the recent proprietor cof the Mount Vernon estate, has met bis death while enacting the part of a rebel apy. _Every American must regret. that the haltowed name of the Father of his Country shoul be worn by a traitor ; but this war makes us acquainted with much that is wondorful an@ much that is sorrowful. Governor Magoffin, of Kentucky, has been compelled, by the public sentiment of his state, to isstie his proclamation, warning off the rebel Tenesseeans, who have violated Kentuckiar neutrality by presuming to march Jarge bo-jies of Confederate troops into the atate. If the Tennesseeans do not obey this proclamation, speedily and unconditionally, the Kentuckians must make aneffort to drive them out. The soil that is too sacred to be polluted by the presence of United States troops must not be suffered to feel the still ‘greater degradation of being made a harbor for trai‘ors in arms. If Kentucky can not force the Tennessee rebels from her borders, the United States must undertake the task, regardless of all pretenses of neutrality and etute sovereignty. The queen of Spain, having admitted the Confederates to equal privileges with the loyal people of the Union in the island of “Cuba, has placed herself in the attitude of an ally ofthe ‘rebels, and committed an act of war agvinst the United States. The Federal Government, it i@tobe -presumed, will attend to her case as soomas it shall have leisure. i = Taking the news by and large, asthe sailors sey, though it contains no very sparkling _ incidents, is nevertheless of interest, aa it cons élusively shows that great events are in the immemedixte future, and that the long anticipated battle on the line of the Potomac can not be much longer delayed. “THe ReBevi ton REcorRD” is the title af anew book, or series of books, by Frank Moore, bcing a diary of American events in 1860 and 1861. It is a complete history of the present rebellion, up to within a few4, months, «nd will be continned_as time progresses cid events multiply, For sale by G. W. Welch, Commercial street.

[PROM OUR“ EXTRA” OF YESTERDAY MORNING] ; Jacon’s WELLS STATION, _ 233 miles east of Fort Churchill, Sept. 234 The Pony, with dates from Leavenworth to Sept. 17th, arrived to-day. at 4 P.M., with . the following dispatches to the Sacramento Union. " oa ; LEAVENWORTH, Sept 17th. Last accounts from the southern Vorder represent Gen. Rains marching northward, and Lane’s command following him. It is diffieult-obtaining information of the movements of troops, owing to the necessity of keeping it secret. About 1,000.rebels were at Platte City, eight miles east of here, yesterday, supposed to be on the march to join Rains or Price, crossing the river at or near Liberty. A portion of them havé been engaged in the recent bridge burnings on the western division of the Hannibal and St. Joe railroad. A column of Federals from peints on the Hanmbal and St. Joe railroad were in pursuit of them. © The militia of the couuties of Kansas Bordering on the River bave been in atms for the last two weeks repelling invasion. The 2d Regiment of Kansas Volunteers, which arrived at this place Sept. 15th, from Rolla, have been continually on the move for nearly 3 months. They had an enthusiastic reception by the citizens and military of this city and were given a dinner at the Hotels. Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 17th.—Considerable excitement was created here on Saturday Sept. 14th by the appearance of Confederate Scouts on the opposite bank of the river. A company of twenty mounted men was sent over from this place in the morning, who discovered a rebel camp of from 200-to 300 men, some six miles distant from the river. An additional force was dethe rebels, took six prisoners with sane number of horses, and destroyed their, barracks and one Federal wounded. Yesterday a large foree of rebels,supposed ‘to be a part of band recently encamped at St. Joséph,miade their appearance four miles helow on the opposite shore and attempted to cross the river, in an old flat boat, sending a part of their force to attract the attention of the Federals by firing into this city andWyandotte. They were repulsed and boat sunk. It is believed they succeeded in crossing the Sibley Ferry, 16 miles below, which they have possession of. Via Outer Station, 157 miles west Fort Kearney, Sep& 18th.

This ivformation has greatly and agreably surprised. the manufacturers and lett them to.aoften down in theirdemand for a speedy ending of the war , j There is considerable feeling at Washing ton among leading men, caused by action ‘of Gen.

They continued the advance on_Elkwater, until within two miles of our troops, -wheu shells from Loomis’ battery dispersed them. “Skirtwo regiments‘were sent on the summit and succeeded, the rebels retreating in confusion. Two rebel officers spying around the camp at Elkwater, were surprised by our pickets and shot. The body of owe taken to the camp proved to be Col. John A.

They -were accepted. : E E * On the 14th the enemy, in strong force of infantry, artillery and’ cavalry, appeared in front, union pickets on the centreand right wings of our forces on the Virginia side of the Potomac. They made their first demonstration on the road leading from Falis Chureh to Bull’s Cross Roads,driving ia our pickets. Heavy bodies’ of skirmishers and. scouts immediately followed, planting a sec tion of artillery near Mary Hull’s House,from this point they directed grape and cannister on the Union pickets at Bull’s Cross Roads, directing their fire at-every point along the rond where ever it was thought our pickets were established between Bull’s Cross Roads and Chain bridge. The Union pickets rallying without confusion, intelligence was immediately communieated to Gen. MeDowell at Arlington House. After a demonstration on our side pickets néar Bull's Cross Roads, the rebels paid their respects at several places to the right of our works near Chain Bridge and made an onset on Vanderberger’s House, two miles from Union camps, where we had pickets st ioned.
