BRILLIANT VICTORY or GEx
I'OEE,

The vict ry Of Gen. Pope near, Sedalia,
Mo-, in cutting OF the rebel supply train
and capturing portion of their army, is
one of the most brilliant of the wpr.--
Subsequent reports add to rather than re-
duee tho magnitude OF the victory. Col.
Davis, who Yves in command Of the Union
forces, displayed great bravery aud gen.
cralship. Fully 1900 rebel prisoners
were captured bo sides 1000 stand ofarms,
1000 horses and 900 wagons. A large
amount Of baggage and supplies of food,
clothing, &C., were also captured, which
viii leave Prices army in very dcsti.
tuto condition, us all his supplies had tc
como from the North, the Southern part
ofthc state being exhausted. A few such

rebels and allow Gon. Ilallcck to direct
his energies more down the Mississippi.
