Bolivar, Polk County, October 26. )
General Fremont and staff arrived at Boil.
var, Polk County, sixteen miles from Camp
Morrisey, and encamped this evening in the
outskirts of the city.
Bolivar, like nearly all the towns in South
ern Missouri, is almost entirely deserted, the
stores being all closed and many ofthe houses
abandoned.
1t is now sscertained that the loss of Fre-
monts Body-guard in the brilliant charge at
Springfield was from six to eight killed and
some fifteen or twenty wounded.
A number of most brilliant instances OF
daring were shown on our side. One Ser
geant had three horses shot from under him,
and a rebel placed pistol to Zagoni's breast
and was in the very act of firing when the
Major severed bis arm from the shoulder, and
laid him dead at the horses feet.
Colonel earns Third Illinois Cavalry and
Major Holman's sharp shooters have left
here for Springfield, and one regiment of
Sigeps division will march there at midnight,

sion depart by forced marches, for Spring.

Our Relations with New Grenada.

WASHINGTON, October 28.-Affairs in New
Grenada in regard to the United States are
in delicate and interesting condition. EIe-
waiting the flag of State Sovereignty and
State Rights, Mosquera threw his country
into terrible revolution, and on the 18th of
July succeeded in entering the Capital
through the imbecility of the chief COM
manders of the Constitutional Army and
the absence of confidence in them by their
troops; but he has not been able to extend
his rule to even one-half of the territory or
population of the country, and there are now
powerful odds against him. Letters from
Bogota state that the American Legation
there favored the obtaining of information
by General Mosquera relative to the strength
and movements of his opponents, by which
he was enabled at last to attack them with
advantage; that in the same manner our
Minister, General Jones, violating the orders
of General Briceno, on the Magadalena
River, had months before caused the disaster
to the expedition sent by p e5 mt Ospina to
the Allan tic States under the command of
that chief, General Jones having caused
steamer to proceed down the river, by which
the rebels were informed of the position,
strength and plan of attack of the Govern.
ment troops.
These letters also assert that on the even
ing of the 10th of July, when Mosquera most
cruelty ordered the murder of three citizens
without trial, even denying them all spiritual
comforts, General Jones represented the
United States at ball or soiree given in the
house he occupied. 1t is known, too, thai
General Jones himself fastened to recognize
the self assumed Government of Mosquera
presenting to him the appointment of United
States Consul at Panama and Aspinwall, anC
asking him for the exequaturs, which wert
Immediately given. In consequence of thes
proceedings of General Jones, Mosquera as
sumed to have been formally recognized By
the Government of the United States.

THE HoLLISs "TURTIE." ."-The following de-
scriptiOn of the Turtle, with which Grey
town Hollins attempted to destroy our feet,
has reached US by eircuitous route from
New Orleans -t..
The Turtle is a vessel of great power Of
engine. She has a bow nine feet long, OF
OAK planks, secured all around by timbers
six feet in thickness, also covered in the same
manner, and made perfectly tight and solid,
besides being shielded with iron plates two
inches in thickness. The hull rises only two
and a quarter eet above the water level.
She is destined to run into the Brooklyn,
which lies down on the Belize, and to sink
her. She is provided with q steam borer or
auger, abOutthe size of a mans arm above the
elbow, intended to make hole in the vessel.
Twenty. Eve hose are kept TO throw boiling
water over the BrOokLyN 10 keep her.hands
from defending her. Already several trials
have been made with her, which the rebels
say have given complete satisfaction. Cannon
| balls have rebounded when fred upon her
| producing no injurious effect and in fact IT II
very difficult to hit her, SO small portion o
! her being above water, s7IH- t.s.

MIC Grent Naval ExpeditIou.

We publish this morning, from our corre-
spondents, a very full account of the great
naval expedition, which has at last left An
napolis, and is on its way to some part of the
Southern coast. Its destination remains, as
yet, profound secret, and probably will so
remain until it is revealed by the blow which
it proposes to strike. There are in the expe-
dition thirty one large transport vessels, con-
veying over twelve thousand troops, with
all their arms, provisions, &c.-sixteen steam
gun-boats, with eight or ten other vessels of
war, carrying in all about four hundred guus.
It is in every .espect a most powerful and
admirably organized expedition, and but for
accidents which can not be foTeseen it will
unquestionably render very essential service
to the Union cause. 1t is under the com
mand of able and experienced officers, and
the troops embarked are among the best in
the volunteer army.
One feature of this expedition is that about
thousand negroes accompany it, being
mainly those who have come into Fortress
Monroe from the neighboring districts Of
Virginia They are to be employed mainly
| in throwing up intrenchments. This is the
first instance, we believe, in which this class
of people have formed any part Of an opera
| tive force; they will, without doubt, be
| found highly serviceable.
To obviate criticism, we may state here
| that this publication of the departure auC
composition of the expedition is made will
the knowledge and assent of the proper au
thorities.-Nel0 York Times, 26th. De-.

How BoMBsHELLs ARE MADB.-The manu-.
facture of bombshells is very interesting.
The shell is first filled with old-fashioned
round leaden bullets; melted sulphur is then
poured in to fill up the interstices and bind
the bullets in one solid mass; the shell is
then put into kind of lathe, and cylindri-
cal hole of the exact size of the orifce Of the
shell is bored through the hnllets and sui
phur.
This cavity is filed with powder even with
the interior edge of the orifce, a six-inch
shell of the kind here described holding alb put
half pound. The fuse fitted into the orifice
is q recent Belgian invention, made of pew
ter, and resembles the screw. cap used for the
patent fruit-cans. An examination of this
pewter cap shows however, that it is made
of two hollow discs of metal screwed to-
gether and filed with meal powder.
A number of fine holes are drilled in the
lower disc, while the outer disc is entire and
marked with figures in the circle, /, 2, 3, 4
In this state the shell is waterproof. When
taken for use the gunner, by means of a
small steel instru ment, scoops out portion
of the outer soft metal surface, and lays bare
the charge of composition powder below it,
If the shell is desired to explode in one sec.
ond after leaving the gun the scoOpiug is
made on the figure l; if in two seconds, on
the figure 2, and 80 on; the idea being thai
the shells of this description shall first strike
the object aimed at and do execution as q
ball, and then explode, sending the bullets
forward as if from another cannon located a
the point where the flight of the shell is ar
! rested.
Large shells of eight or ten inches ar'
filled with powder only, and bursting, dc
execution by means of their fragments
These large shells are generally fired by
means of fuse of meal powder extending
through brass plug screwed into the mouth
of the shell. In both cases the fuse is free
by the ignition of the charge in the gun.

Conflicting Reports from rrIee,s Forces

IbpeClaI UIHpatCh 70 Ihe ml55OurI DemOCrat.I
TIPToN, Mo-, October 29.-General Ken
nedy, who has Just returned to Sedalia, from
Prices army, says Prices men are much dis
satisfied at the prospect of leaving the State,
and that they will force him to make stand
within our borders.
On the other hand, it is asserted that Gen.
eral Johnston has left Kentucky to take COM
mand OF Price and McCulloch's forces, and
that, before leaving that State, he sent couri-
ers to Price and McCulloch directing them
to fall back into Arkansas, and not give Free
mont battle until he could reach them.
General Kennedy says Fremont will have
a much larger force to contend against than
he imagines. Considerable numbers OF
Prices rebels are arriving in this section
daily, and it is feared they will renew their
plundering habits as soon as our troops leave.
