FROm MISSOURI.

.Haa 0TTERvILLE, Dec. 10.
information, which is supposed to be 70.
liable, has been received here Of the re-
treat Of Price southRsrd. The day after
the party Gen. Pope sent out to Johnston
county drove In Gen. Raines' piokets, Price
withdrew Raines' division across the river,
and the next day marched eight miles
southWRrd with his whole force. At last
accounts one division Of his army Was at
Nevasha, and the main army under Price
had just left HumonBville on its way To
warsaw, rI. . .ea
Prioessays that his retrograde movement
was in obedience TO orders from the PreelT
dent Of the Confederate States, bat his
men generally believed that it was in con-
sequence Of Gen. Pope's advance, and
Prices fear that force would be thrown
forward 10 cut of his supplies southwark,
and another force advanced is front, in
which event his supplies would have been
exhausted in q few days, and he would
have been compelled 10 aban Ion his COM
manding position ct 0seeola.
Whatever. the motive, il is certain that
the move was not an advantageous one for
Price, for many Of his men who for months
had been expecting 10 march upon and
drive the Federals from the State, will be
disguised and will refuse to follow him out
Of Missouri. Gen. Halleok's policy Of
showing no mercy to laWless bands Of ma
rauders and bridge burners, and Of dealing
with the utmost lenienoy with those who
lay down their aFms and return to their
homes and peaceful operations, will do
much 10 restore peace 10 the State.
Gen. Pope has received from the troops
under his command numberless evidences
Of their appreciation Of his abilities. Yes
terday q beautiful flag vas sent him, and
last night he was serensded by one OF ouF
best bands, and congratulations innumeF-
able come in on him from every quarter.
The troops are in good condition and
anxious for move. r... #s.r .,.r
Gen. Pope issued an order some time sge,
making COlOnels Of regiments responsible
for the condition Of their regimentsl trans
portation sRd the good order of their arms
end equipments. This has Deen rigidly
enforced and when the order was issued
for our last move We were en- route in
three hours, although the order came at
midnight. pals ak
The success of tho movement and the
praise and congratulations the troops have
received have had good effect on them,
and they will move forward when next or
dered with still greater alaority and with
still stronger assurances Of SUCCESS under
Gen. Popes command.

The flag officer Of the Poetic squadron
says sl remains quiet ct Panama and
throughout the Isthmus.
The recognition Of the Mosquefs Govern
ment by the authorities Of Panama seems
to hsVs tranquilized the public mind and
produced q general feeling Of security not
experienced for many years.
Dispatches from Com. Ridley,. cruising
of the coast Of Texas, have also been re-
oeiVed, from which it appears that early in
December he captured the English schooner
Victoria, Of 70 tons, from Point Isabel
with clearance from the rebel authorities,
having run the blockade.
The vessel was sent TO Key West. Seven
Of those on board took the oatL Of allegi-
ance, and six we're detained as enemies.
The schooner Eugene, on the 9th, was
also oyerhsuled, but was permitted to de-
part, no -oOntraband articles being found
on board. The persons of two rebel agents,
however, were secured, viz: Thomas r.
Rogers Of Texas and Mr. Zachary Of New

Protecting Animals from storms.

! believe that farmers generally are NOT
aware how much loss they sustain in the
hesh OF their domestic animals, and how
much they suffer during cold rain storms
III the summer, or any other season of the
year, !" arm showers never inure animals
indeed they appear to have a good relish
Tor such sprinkling as they frequently
get, provided it is not as cold as ice. Most
animals will endure pretty severe cold =.
long as they keep dry ;bnt as soon as their
oouies have been wet, and are kept wet.
e'aporatlon commences. As eraporation
is acooiing process, the heat of their bodies
Is earned away very rapidly; and the sud
aen transition from heat to cold chills
tsefh IN very snort time, and Injuries them
more than severe storm in winter
Animalswill endurea verysudden cNansh
from cold to heat with impunitv; but aud.
dcn changes from heat to cold are often
attended with very serious cousenuepce.
We are apt to think becuase it is not frcez.
ing, a ram storm will not hurt our animals.
but could they communicate to us their
feelings during cold storm Of rain, there
would not be so much negligence about
protecting them especially during the cold
ahd ram stormy days and nights ofautu.f1u.
weii remember that about twenty tears
ago there was a severe ram storm in the
month OF June; and though our sheep had
been sheared more than two weeks, We
thought they ought to be brought home ta
the barn. But many OF them were SO COLI
and feeble in consequence of the rain that
