MISSOURI
From the st. Louis Republican, Eth.

THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
We lern that the thirty ninth Ohio regime:t,
Colonel Grocsbeck the third Iowa, Lieut.
Colonel Scott; the sixteenth Illinois, Colonel
Smith, and a body of Missouri stale militia
and Iowa state troops, under Colonies Crayner
and Edwards, together with about three hun
dred regular and irregular cavalry, and six
pieces Of artillery, four under the command
of Captain Madison, and two under the com
mand Of German lieutenant, left St. Joseph
and Chilicothe in two divis ons, early Sunday
morning, to reinforce Colonel Muligan at
Lexington
NORTH OF THE RIVER.
Northern Missouri is now, tor the first time
during the war, cleared of the armed preda-
tory bands that have infested that section.
The career of the secessionists in that part of
the state, who have been plundering the PEG
pie, destroying public property and instituting
a reign of terror calculated to make humanity
shudder, is, we are confident, at last brought
to an end. AT this moment it is believed that
there is not an armed secession organization in
the whole of that country lying north of the
Missouri river, except, perhaps, in the
region about Lexington. Martin Green has
fled before the advancing column OF General
Pope, Escaping the trap in which the general
nearly had him. and sought protection in the
camp OF Price. His boast that be would have
entire possession of the Hannibal and ST.
Joseph railroad before the first snow of winter
is not likely to prove prophetic. The rebel
folc that rode so high horse in St. Joseph
and there's bouts has also found it expedient
to cut stick in a southwark direction, making
tor the main body Of ,lsunion soldiers now at
Lexington. And so the rebels in North Mis-
souri, have finally been dispersed.

We gave the other day some account Of the
extensive preparations that are making in this
city for the supply of winter clothing TO the
army. These preparations remind us of what
the south had lost by the want of proper en-.
terprise in Richmond before the war on this
very subject OF army clothing.
1t is greatly to be regretted that the earnest
efforts which were made in 1857 and 1858, by
the then secretary OF war, Gov. Floyd, to es,
tabliSh a clothing factory and depository for
the army in this city, failed. Next to enlarg-
ing greatly the capacity Of the works at liar
pers Ferry, for the manufacture of arms, and
the establishment of national foundry some
where III the south, that gentleman was most
soctous 10 organize and set in operation 4
large clothing factory for the army in this ctv.
The entire clothing manufacture OF the
United States army had been conducted Tor
many years in Philadelphia. 1t vas an i'm
mense business, involving more than million
OF dollars year. 1t was conducted on gov.
eminent account, and not on the contract sys-
tenn. If haG been very ably managed by Maj.
Crossman, OF the quartermaster's department,
assialed by one or two OF the leading dry goods
merchants in Philadelphia, to whom it brought
a large revenue.
Gov. Floyd thought it was just that this vast
business should be divided between the south
ald the north and he determined, ii any
respectable merchants in this city would con
sent To take hold of it, that he would divide
the business and send half Of il to Richmond.
Accordingly, he caused some Of the leading
dry goods merchants OF this city to be spoken
to on the subject Several of them were
sounded and either from want of sagacity, or
enterprise, or of inclination, they declined TO
lend their assistance TO the enterprise. Dis
couraged by the cold reception which the
proposition met with in city that would have
