The Siege of Lexington
HUDSON, Mo., Monday, Sept. 23, 1861.
_ The following account of“ the siege ochx-
iugtonis furnished the SI. Louis Republican
by Henry Bradburrr, one of Col. Mulligan’s
soldiers, who left Lexington on Saturday
morning.
The fort was surrendered on Friday after-
noon. The men fbuglitfifty nine Irours with-
out water, and had only three barrels of vin-
egar to quench their thirst.
Durrrig all that time there were no springs
or wells of water in the carin ground, as has
been stated. The supply of water was en
trrely from the river. There were breast-
works all round the camp, with the exception
of that portion next the river. It was here
that the hardest fighting took place.
The rebels procured a large number of
hemp bales, and rolled them in advance, and
under their cover gradually succeeded in se-
curing a. position to the rear. They then cut
off the supply of watcrand had the fort corn-
* pletely surrounded. '
’ They made but few charges on the breast-
works during the siege. Their object seem-
ed to be to surround the fort and cut otf the
supply of water, and having succeeded in
this, they awaited until Col. Mulligan was
compelled to yield to a fee moreteI-rililcthan
the 27,000 Rebels who surrounded him.
Previous to his surrender, hc 011-01"ed 10
take a position on a level Spol oi‘ground,and
give Gen. Price the odds of folll‘ 10 0110 in =1
fair and open fight, but no attention was
paid to it.
After the surrender, the Rebels mounted
the breastwork and seemed mad with joy
and delight.
As soon as the surrender took place, the
Federal flag was torn down and trailed in the
dust.
An immense ariiount of gold, supposed to,
be about a quarter of a. million of dollars, fell
into the possession of the rebels. It was ta-
kcn from the banks and bin-led by Col. Mul-
ligan in the camp ground some time ago, but
the rebels speedily discovered and unearthed
It.
Col. Mulligan wept like a child when he
found himself compelled to surrender.
The morning after the surrender the men
were all released on parole and ferried
across the river. The officers were retained.
The loss of the rebels is not known, but it
is thought to be not less than 1600 killed and
wounded.
.Thc first attack of the rebels proved more
drsastrOus to them than the long siege which
followed. ‘
For a day or two previous to the last at-
tack they were engaged in burying their dead.

COL. JAMES A. MULLIGAN.
The following sketch of Col. James A.
Mulligan, the brave defender of Lexington,
Mo, we learn from a gentleman of Detroit
Who has been intimately acquainted with
him for the past five or six years.
Col. James A. Mulligan was born in the
city of Utiea, N. Y., in the year 1829, and is
consequently in his 32d year. His parents
were natives of Ireland. His mother, after
the death of his father, which took place
when he was a child, removed to Chicago,
where she has resided with her son for the
past 23 years. She married a respectable
Irisermerican in Chicago, named Michael
Lantry, who has steadily watched with a
father’s solicitude the expanding mind of the
brave young soldier, He was educated at
the Catholic College of North Chicago, under
the superintendence of the Rev. Mr. Kinscl—
lar, now of New York City. He is a strict
member of the Catholic Church. 1111852,
1853 and 1854 he read law in the oflice of
the Hon. Isaac N. Arnold, Congressman
from the Chicago District. For a short time
he edited the Western Tablet, a semi-religious
weekly newspaper in Chicago. In 1856 he
was admitted an attorney-at-law in Chicago.
- At this time he held the position of 2d Lieu-
tenantiu the Shields Guards, one of the com-
anies attached to the Irish Brigade now in
issouri, and which has done so Well at Lex-
inotori.
In the Winter of 1857 Senator Fitch of In-'
diana tendered him a clerkship in the De-
partment of the Interior. He accepted the
position and spent the Winter in W ashing-
ton. During his residence in Washington
he corresponded with the (film Zblegraph
over the nom de plume of “Satan." After
his return from Washington he was elected
Ca tainof the Shields Guards. On the news
arriving of the bombardment of Fort Sumter
he threw his soul into the National cause.—
The Irish American companies held a meet-
ing, of which be was Chairman. Shortly af-
terwards he went to Washington with a let-
ter, written I:" 'he late Senator Douglas on
his deathbed, to the President, tendering a
regiment to be called the “Irish Brigade.”—
He was elected Colonel, and immediately
went to work with a will. The course of
the “Brigade” up to the battle of Lexington,
is well known; it has nohly, bravely, and
honorably cleric its duty.
Col. Mulligan is worthy of all praise. A
purer, a better man does not live in the state
of Illinois. Since he was able to tell the
difference between ale and water ‘a glass of
spirituous liquors has riot passed his lips.—
He is a rigid temperance man, although he
is jocuud and whole-smiled to a fault. He is
six feet three inches in height, with a wiry,
elastic frame, a large, lustrous, hazel eye, an
open, frank Celtic face, stamped with cour—
age, pluck and independence, surmounted
with a bushy profusion of hair, tincturcd
with gray. ‘Honorabic in all relations, res-
pected by all, he has won his way by unti-
ring industry and unquestionable courage.—
Ori the 26th (lay of October, 1859, he was
married to Miss Marian Nugcnt by the Ro-
man Catholic Bishop of Chicago.
A fine scholar, a good speaker, a brilliant
writer, a promising lawyer, was he when the
banner of the Union was insulted. Now he
is—long may he continue so—orie of the
brave defenders of the Union. In one of his
last letters received by the gentleman allu-
ded to, he sets: “If I die—if I fall in de-
fense of our laws and Constitution, let my
example be followed by all—by every man
who loves the fame and renown of the fath-
ers who made us a great and honored peo-
ple.

OE MILLION OF DOLLARS ‘ADVANCE 0N
COTTON.—Thc mills of this city have a large
quantity of cotton on hand which has ad-
vanced in price since it was bought, about
one million of dollars. That owned by the.
Amoskeag 00. would sell for $450,000 more
than it cost; that owned by the Stark Mills
350, 000, add that owned by the Manchester
”lills $155,000. Sum total $955,000. It
would be'a'handsome profit enough if they
could sell it, but they will not sell a single
pound, though the advance on goods does
not correspond at all with the advance OII
cotton. They will manufacture it and man-
ufacture it ata loss compared with the sale
of the raw material, for the benefit of the op-
eratives and the people of the city depending
upon the running of our mills for a support.
Truly, it cannot be said of our Manchester
Corporations, that they “have no souls."

COMPARISONS—It is useless to deny that
the masses of the people have a deep-seated
and settled confidence in"‘lS‘ai'snpar'z'llu,” as
nu alterative remedy. Notwithstanding this
confidence has of late years been abused by
many preparatioIIs claiming to possess its vir-
tues but really with none at all, still the peo-
ple believe in its intrinsic value as a remedy,
because they have known of its cures. The
rage for large bottles at low prices has called
into market many compounds of Sarsaparilla
which contain scarcely any of it, Or even any
medical whatever. Yet everybody knows
that Sarsaparilla is the great. staple antidote
i’lqr Scrofnla, Eruptions cutanedus diseases,
and for the purification of the blood, when
they can get the real article, or an actual ex-
trapt of it; Such we are now able to inform
them they can obtain. Dr. J. C. Ayer A: Go.
the celebrated chemists of the East, whose
reputation assures us they do well whatever
{his}! undertake, are selling a Compound Ex-
I'RCI. of Sarsaparilla, which, although the
bottles do not eontain quarts, for a dollar, do
contain more of actual curative power than
whole gallons of the staffs which have been
in use. It is asserted that one bottle of Ayer‘s
Sarsaparilla contains more than double the
amount of medicinal virtue, which is afford-
ed by any other. This fact is not only ap-
parent to the taste, but its effects and cures
afford incontestible proof that it is true.—
Such a remedy has been long sought for, and
is every where needed by all classes of our
community—“Age,” (.{r/irflrimrr/t Kn.

WOOD's HAIR RESTUIIA'1‘I\'E.-—Tllls worr-
dcrful preparation is having an extensive sale
in all parts of the Union. It is one of the
few patent medicines which are now sold over
the country, that are really what lheirinven-
tors claim for them. Wherever it has had a
fair trial, the result has been precisely as
Wood predicts. It has never failed to turn
the white hair back to the natural color,
where the directons have been strictly fol-
lowed, and in numerous cases ithas restored
the hair upon treads that had been bald for
years. It is not pretended llrat it will make
the hair grow in every case, but where it fails
there is certainly I'eiiicdy. The restoration
ofthe hair has been effected in so many iii-
stanees where the case seemed utter-iv hope-
less, that it is certain worth wirilc for-III] who
have lost their hair to try the experiment of
using a bottle or two of Wood’s Restorative.

THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE.
NEW NFLUIVIE.
ON the seventh of September, 1861, THE
New YORK WEEKLY TRIBUNE corn-
mcnced the twenty-first year of its existence;
TIIE DAILY TRIBUNE being some months
older and the TIIE SEMI-WEEKLY TRIBUNE
somewhat younger. For Inorc than twenty
years, this journal has labored in what its
conductors have felt to be the cause of Hu-
manity, Justice and Freedom, endeavoring
to Iiicliorate the condition of the oppressed
and unfortunate, to honor and encourage use-
ful exertion in whatever sphere, and, to pro-
mote by all means the moral, intellectual and
material advancement of our country. It
has aimed to be right rather than popular,
and to espouse and commend to-day the
truth that others may not be willing to ac-
cept till to-morrow. In pursuing the course,
mistakes have been made and faults commit-
ted; but, having in all things incited our
readers to think and judge for themselves
rather than adopt blindly our own or others’
conclusions, we believe we may fairly claim
for this journal the credit of having qualified
its readers to detect and expose even its own
errors. To develop the minds of the young
by the most general, thorough and practical
Education, and to encourage and stimulate
Productive Industry, through free grants of
Public Lands to actual settlers and cultiva-
tors, as also through the protection of imma-
ture or peculiarly exposed branches from
too powerful foreign competition, are among
the aims to which this journal has adhered
through good and evil report, and which it
steadfastly commends to American patriot-
ism aud philantliro y.
As to the Civil ar now devastating our
country, we hold it to have originated in a
Rebellion more wanton, wicked, inexcusable,
than was ever before known—a Rebellion in
the interest of the few against the manv—a
Rebellion designed to raise higher the walls
of caste and tighten the chains of oppression.
Having done all we could without a surrender
of vital principle to avoid this War, and wit-
nessed the forbearance, meekuess, and long-
suffcring‘with which the Federal Govern-
ment sought to avert its horrors, we hold it
our dear duty, with that of every other citi-
zen, to stand by the nation audits fairly cho-
sen rulers, aurl to second with all our encr-
gics their efforts to uphold the Union, the
Constitution, and the supremacy of the Laws.
And, though the Rebellion has become,
through usurpation deception, terrorism,
and spoilation, fearfully strong, we
believe the American Republic far stronger,
and that the nnanimous,earncst efforts of loy-
al hearts and bands will insure its overthrow.
But on all questions affecting the objects, the
scope, and duration of this most extraordi-
nary contest, we defcr to those whom the
American People have clothed with authori-
ty, holding unity of purpose and of action
indispensable in so grave an emergency.
In a crises like the present, our columns
must be largely engrossed with the current
history of the War for the Union, and with
f elucidations of its more striking incidents.—
Wc shall not, however, remit that attention
to Literature, to Foreign Affairs, to Agricul-
tural Progress, to Crops, Markets, «£20., &c.,
which has already, we trust, won for THE
TRIBUNE an honorable position among its
eotemporarics. Our main object is and shall
‘- be to produce ii. comprehensrve newspaper,
. from winch a careful reader may glean a vivid
and faithful history of the times, not merely
in the domain of Action but that in Opinion
also. As our facilities for acquiring informa-
tion increasa with years, we trust. that an im-
provement in the contents of our journal is
perceptible, and that, in the variety and full-
ness of intelligence afforded, we may still
hope to “make each day a critic on the last.”
In this hope, we solicit a continuance of the
generous measure of patronage hitherto. ac-
corded to our journal.

ANTI RHEUMA'l'JlO BAND,

AND A SURE CURE FOR
All Mercurial Diseases.
IT is a conveniently arranger. Band, con-
taining a. medicated compound, to be
worn around the Waist, without injury to
the most delicate persons, no change in hab-
its of living is required, and. it entirely re-
moves the disease from the system, without
producing the injurious effects arising from
the use of powerful internalmedicines which
weaken and destroy the constitution, and give
temporary relief only. By this treatment,
the medicinal properties contained in the
Band,'come in contact with the blood and
reaches the disease, through the pores of the
skin, effecting in every instance a perfect
cure, and restores the parts afflicted to a
healthy condition. This band Is also a most
powerful ANTI-MERCURIAL agent, and will
entirely relieve the system from the pernic-
ious effects of Mercury. Moderate cases are
cured in a few days, and we are constantly
receiving testimonials of its efficacy in ag-
gravated cases of long standing.
