THE WAR IN MISSOURI.

SpR1NGFIELD, Mo. March lst.-LSpecial
to Missouri Republican. lon Wednesday
night Captain Montgomery of Wright's
battalion, with his company, was surprised
at Keitsville, Barry county, by $50 rebels
supposed to belong to McBride's division,bu
who represented themselves as Texan
rangers.
They fred into the house occupied by our
men, killing two and wcundipg one.
Gee of the rebels was killed and the BAL
ance fed, taking with them about 70 horses.
Two wagons loaded with suffers stores
Was burned the same night at Major Har.
bines farm, two miles beyond Keitsvile.
Coionels Ellis ard Wright, with ade-
quate cavalry force were sent to Keitsville.
Price had burned several public buildings
at Fayetteville, including the arsenal, lead
factory, several Touring mills and 10000
pounds of -four. Many inhabitants along
the road have fed. deceived by threats of
Price that all would be butchered.
A strong Union feeling was exhibited
among those remaining. An old soldier of
1872 brought out the Union flag long kept
concealed.
The fear that the combined forces of
Price, Van Dorm, McCuIloch, Mcintosh,
and Pike will again Overrun the country,
keeps thousands from avowing their senIi-
ments.
Price after hot chase is cooling off on
Boston Maintains, and Ben. McCulloch is
on this side.

The special agent of the Post-OtIice
Department with the United States Army
is determined to put stop to the specu-
lations that have been carried on by
Chaplains, Suffers and others, in postage
stamps. At his request Maj KEY, Pro-
yost Marshal General for the Western
army, has directed that all persons caught
within the military lines selling stamps
at more than the Government price, DO
arrested and the stamps confscsted.--
Postmasters and others who furnish
stamps for purposes Of speculation, will
be promptly dealt with by the Post Office
Department We hope that information
will be given whenever one Of these post
age sharks makes his appearance in the
army. There is no reason why the SOL
diers should be imposed on in that way.

Under the Federal Government your
city grew rapidly, your commerce WAS
aourishing, manufactures prospeFed, and
the great channels of trade were opened
in every direction. The Rebel Govern
ment came and in few short months
swept away like wild tornado all this
golden prosperity. Your trade was ruin
ed, your manufactures destroyed, your
population diminished and your railroad
bridges burned by the rebels. Is it not
time that this madness and ruin should
stop? Are you not convinced that every
interest shat is dear to you appeals to
you TO return 70 the Union of your faith

thousand majority? If you think thus,
