Pursuit Of Guerillas In Missouri.

sRDALIA, Mo-, Aug 81 The rebel forces under
the guerilla leaders, Coffee, Quantrell, Cockrell
and Tracy, lately remaining at Lexinet ton, are In
full retreat southward. They are 4 900 strong,
having two spiked cannon captured from Msjor
Foster. Col. Fitz Henry w arren and Brig. Gen.
Blunts forces, Of Kapsas, are in hot pursuit with
$500 troops and fourteen pieces Of artillery
Both are moving very rapidly. The rebels were
only one hour ahead Of Warren's cavalry. There
10 every prospect that they will be overtaken and
captured or badly whipped at the crossing OF the
Osage river. As soon as Col. Houston, the com
mander at Lexington heard Of the defeat Of Ma j.
Foster at Lone Jack he made immediate prepa-
ration for the defense of that city The old for
the troops to get water, and all the .cent build
ings were blown up. ALI the hemp in town was
burned to prevent the rebels from using 1t as
brea'tworki The warehouses and hemp burned
were worth $500 600. The city Is now entirely
secure again.
