B)r CRUELTY To Anmmats —Ed. Star: In a stroll I took in the northwest part of the city this after- noon, I visited the in encampment. and [ ‘was amazed at the vast as well as complete prep- aration of the Government, in this particular, for the war that is upon us. I looked upon the immense number of fine animals congregated there, and thought of the great expense which their purchase must have c; I saw, too,a sight which gave megrent pain. An enraged teamster was enga; in mercilessly beating a large and noble mule. He commenced with the butt-end of his whip over the head and face of the animal, but soon dropping this, he seized aciub that lay on the ground, and applied this, with all his strength. in the same manner as be had the whip before. No effort was made by this brute in human form to coax or persuade the mule into obedience, if indeed he was at all refractory, for Lsaw no evidence of this; and his whole course towards this poor dumb animal seemed to be nothing less than the most wanton and unprovoked cruelty. A number of teamsters stood by, but not one opened his mouth in behalf of the mule. It seems to me that those In charge of this matter should have an especial eye to the conduct of these men in this respect, or their loss from maimed and injured animals, on sccount of cruelty from ferocious teamsters, will be immense.

St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 21.—In order to correct confusion and the many contradictory statements relative to the position of Lexington and opposing forces of Col. Mulligan and General Price, it is deemed necessary to make the following expla- nation: The general direction of the Missouri river at Lexington is from west to east, Lexington lying on the southern bank. The early settlement, now called “Old Town,” is situa back ona bill, and has been superseded by New Lexington, fur- ther up the river, where the steamboat landing is, and which is the main city. Col. Mulligan’s fortifications are on a ridge running at right angles between the two towns. ‘They surround the Masonic College buildings, standing about a quarter of a mile from the river, which have been used as quarters for the troops and strengthened to resist an artillery attack. The line of fortifications runs down to the river b'uff, between which and the water’s edge is a wide shelving beach. This is the point where the cenfiict took place on Thursday for the posses- sion of the ferry boats The main body of Price’s army is situated at the Old Town, but the fortifications have been as- sailed from all sides except the river On Thursday of last week an attack was made from the O!d Town ova strong party of rebels, who were repulsed with considerable loss, and the Old Town was shelled and burned to prevent its being used as a shelter se 23 3: AN AMERICAN WOMAN WIS::ES A SIT- UATION &s cook. and assist 1n washing.

Yesterday the propeller Pusey, Captain Honan, ‘went down to Maryland Point, last night. She reports all quiet on the Potemac. A battery mounting eight guns is visible on the hilt just in the rear of the wharf at Aquia Oreek, with a large fing waving from issummit. Nomen can be seen, but there ere evidences of quitean encampment. Last Friday the Ice Boat was fired upon by the Aquia Creek batteries, but without doing any damage. Two shots only were fred, both of which fell short. The steamer hoisted ber anchor and dropped quietly a little lower down, out of range. Three small skiffs, picked up on the Maryland shore,were brought up by the Pusey in order that no possible means of communication between Maryland and Virginia may be afforded the secessionists. Under the strict surveiliance of the flotilla, few succeed in crossing the Poto- msc now, and transportation cf supplies to the rebels has been pretty effectually checked. Experiments were meade with a new cartridge for ordnance, atthe yard, this morning, by Lieut. Badger. The improvement consists in « water- proof case for the powder, so that in case of aoci- dent at sea, the contents of 2 magazine may not be destroyed by water, as was that of the R.B. Forbes on her trip from Boston, by which sbout 1,600 pounds were ruined. LATE LOCAL NEWS. —_.—_ Mititary Fonerats Yesteepay . Line gerfelter, of Company B, Col.
