Letters diyulging IN extensive contraband

rivers. This force constitutes the largest
part OF the army which Gen. Fremont took
to Springfield. Busy preparations arc now
being made for the establishment Of winter
quarters for the troops. Price is still south

times may be expected.

the Southern Confederacy. This morning
they took possession Of the stage leaving for
