ST. LOUIS, July 23.-Advices from North
Missouri are to the effect that on Sunday
morning Col. Smiths Zouaves went to DAN
vile and arrested four men who were en-
gagged in hanging Col. Sharp and Lieuten-
ant Jaster, and took them out and shot
them. One of them, Robert Lewill, was
lawyer, formerly editor of the Danyille
Herald.
Two more men, concerned in the same
outrage, were shot near Mexico, Andwain
county, by a company of cavalry under
Capt. Smith. Four others escaped. One of
those shot was Captain of company of reb-
els at Mexico, named Moultrie. Fully 1000
troops are stationed on the North Missouri
Railroad.
1t is reported that a large body of rebels,
from South Eastern Missouri, are marching
on Pilot Knob, Southern terminus of the
Iron Maintain Railroad, and that Col.
Bland, stationed at that point has sent
here for re-enforcements.

BAbrIMoRE, July 22.--Immediately upon
the confirmation of the retreat of the Union
forces. the 18th New York militia, whose
term of enlistment expires shortly, unani-
mousIy signed a paPes to re-enlist for
three years. Gen. Banks leaves for Gen.
Patterson's column tomorrow morning.
The city continues in great excitement.
The secessionists are overjoyed. Efforts
are being made by leading secessionists to
keep the more disordered quiet. The pres
ence of considerable military force may
be required to keep the rebels in Baltimore
quiet in their present delirium. Likenesses
of Beauregard are sold on the streets. A
heavy and steady rain prevented a large
congregation of people.
4Paymaster Mcbride, of the United States
Army, Just from Washington, coutradicts
the report that Sherman's and Burnside's
batteries were captured by the rebels. The
Unionists in Baltimore very generally at
tribute the defeat of the Union forces to the
inactivity of Gen. Patterson, who, it is re-
ported, was dozen times officially tele-
graphed to engage Gen. johnson at any
odds.
On Sunday thirty arrests were made for
attempts to incite a mob.

WASHINGTON, July 23.--A spectator of
the battle at Bulls Run says the single
cause of the panic was charge Of large
body of cavalry among the teamsters and
struggling soldiers who were in the rear Of
our main forces, between the Run and
Centerville. When Gen. Mcdowell found
thathis reserve was on the retreat it was
too late to remedy the mistake. He then
commanded the main body to fall back,
which it did quietly and in order. The
men who had been fighting all day without
water or food, were in a state of complete
exhaustion. A spectator, an Englishman,
who was present at the Crimean battles,
said their fighting had been of the most
splendid kind. Such charges as the Fire
ZouaYes and the Goth Irish regiment made
he had not seen at Inkerman or Alma.
The following dispatch from the Secreta-
ry of War has just been received by the

WAsH1NGroN, July 22d.-The agent of
the Associated Press furnishes the follow
ing The retreat of the troops to Centre
vile was successfully accomplished by 8
O'Clock last evening. The regiments are re-
gaining the positions they vacated in the
morning. Those that succeeded in reach
ing CentreviIle had four hours to stop
The reserve was under Col. Mills, being post
ed beyond Centreville at 10 o'clock in
the morning the retreat from that point
commenced, and, as mentioned, in good or
der to Arlington Heights and Alexandria.
The army ia its retreat left behind large
amount of provisions and ammunition.
About forty army wagons fell into the pos
session of the rebels. As fast as our troops
retreated their positions were occupied by
the rebels till after Fairfax Court House
was passed, after which the pursuit was
not continued. In many instances the
teamsters unhitched the horses and allow
ed the wagons, to be lost, for which there
was not the slightest necessity. The rebel
cavalry was the terror of the volunteers,
who were compelled to keep the woods to
avoid being charged by them.
