Lexington, No, Oct. 4.
The corrcsp onslrnt OF the IT. Louis Re-
pallioaa writes as follows;
The plan Of Gen. Price after lie capt
urcd L. xingion was to remain for time
and operate on lie north side Of the river
and ior this purpose CA Saturday, 2Slh Of
September, he crossed over the river al
Lexington with 1000 mounted men. This
force took up H. line Of march for the
railroad. with ihc view OF liz total desiruc-
ton. aud then .ad havoc was to he made
with all the government forces ~ the
northwest Missouri. but laie in the tyc-
ming. Allied jones, who had been released
a. y prisoner II the arsenal where he had
taken the oath Of allegiance to the L. 5.
government, returned from 81. Louis 10
Lexington and reported that the vii Die
country bclaw was alive with troops that
Fremont was after Price, and they might
prepare Tor Zig tight ~ i few days.
This served to raise the courage OF
Prices men. and they said: Let Free
mont COME. they were ready for him s
bat when Jones answered that Fremont
had 10000 men. aud his oaly icar was
that Price would not make stand, the
latter couut-nnauded his order for send
ing troops 10 the railroad. and messenger
wa. immediately despatched after those
already started and they rverossed the
river on Sunday evening. That night
Price issued his order for movement
south, aud Gen. Rains, il Is said, went
twenty miles that night on his. southern
route, and il Is believed Gov jackson
awaited himself Of this command as an es-
corl 10 get himself out Of danger. Price
and all hi, forces len OH Monday, the Both
uli.. but his train OF baggage wagons, about
1900 IN number. did not all get oft before
"Wednesday morning. If Price had de-
signed fight with Fremont he would
have taken the Georgetown road, OF pos
slbly ihc Warrcnsburg road, but instead
az this he has gone the road leading down
tile western boundary Of the State, and TO
the southwest have given plain mar
ra,ive OF facts. as they have TRANSFERRED
here. and If Price does not make stand
and give battle, all who are eognizant OF
Ill. movements will be disappointed. His
most intelligent friends consider his course
a complete back-down, while the more
verdant are filled with the idea that lac
has gone TO meet McCulloch, who from
the most rrIiable information, Is some
where IN Arkansas. The forces OF Price
we're very large at Lexington, but many
al the men were only for the occasion, aud
have gone home. His force was $4,000
or $4,000 when he left Lexington. and as
the fact becomes certain that his desiina-
ton Is Arkansas, his force will be de-
creased.
Cairo, ILL.,, Oct. 10.
The pickeis. six in number, of the 4th
cayalry regiment stationed four or five
miles from Paducah, were attacked by a
large body &c rebels this morning. Two
we're MORALLY wounded, and two taken
prisoners. with all their horses and equip
ages. The enemy had divided their force,
and in the excitement, fired on each other.
They fed, each party taking the other for
our cavalry. A deserter from the rebel
camp at Columbus, arrived to-day, reports
lhe force there 10000.
