Tribune from Cairo states that officers by the

their arrival at Memphis there was rumor
through rebel sources that the gunboat Arkan-

expedition was planned before their departure to

in consequence of the reported escape OF d num-

Please allow me space in your excellent
paper, to return heartfelt thanks to the
kind ladies of Moundsville, Marshal coun-
ty, Va, for their very liberal donations to
my company, of undershirts, socks, nit
tens, &c. Be assured, ladies, your kindness
sent a thrill of JOY to the hearts of every
member of the company, such as can only
be felt by the soldier who are separated
from mother, wife or sister. Be assured
ladies, whether in camp, on the march, or
in actual engagement, the department OF
the boys will be such, that you will never
regret your donation. AS you remember
ed us in our actual necessities, also please
remember us in your devotions.

Frnn Missouri.

RoLLA, Mo-, Jan. 1.-THE brigade which
has left here for the West within the past
three days, is composed of the 35th and
Seth Illinois, 25th and 44th Missouri, and
Bachof's and Hofman's batteries, under
command of Gen. Osterhaus. Another
brigade, under Gen. Sigel, will probably
leave in day or two, and Gen. Sigel will
doubtless assume command of the entire
division at the proper time.
ST. LOUIS, Jan. 17.-Navigation is en-
tirely suspended here, in consequence of
the gorging of ice twenty miles below the
city, extending TO a point some distance
above town. Troops are now being sent
to Cairo by railroad, but their advance is
materially retarded by inadequate means
for crossing the river here, the ferry boats
not being able to run, and the ice not yet
sufficiently strong to bear heavy weights.
The weather is moderating again, however,
and prospects of a speedy opening of the
river are fair.
Gen. Price, member elect from the 5th
Congressional District, left for Washing
ton to-day.
No person will hereafter be allowed to
leave the city until his baggage has been
searched by an officer appointed for that
purpose, and the trunks sealed.
Some of our papers are ventillating the
antecedents of the newly appointed Sera-
tor from Missouri.

For the TntelIigencer.l


We, the undersigned Captains in the lst
Regiment Virginia Infantry, hereby certify
that the communication in the DaiIy In
telligemcer of the 10th, Ia letter from a COM
planning soldier in Romney to his sister in
Wheeling,) is palpable misstatement of
facts, and does gross injustice to Quarter
Master Singleton.
1t is true that corn meal was issued for
four days in place of bread but at the
same time each days rations consisted of
fresh beet, potatoes, homony, beans, onions,
mOlasses, coffee and sugar; and that the
amount of all these articles was as much
as the Army Regulations would allow
We do assure the friends of the 1st Vir-
ginia, that there has at no time been any
want of proper food, or any just cause for
cOmnlnint
