MOVEMENTS OF PRICE AND McCULLoCH IN
MISSOURI.
The rebel war bulletin OF the 4h February published
o. Fayetteville Arkansas states that Brgadisr General
Bon Mccullough was expected daily to take command Of
the division there. The Information is based the fol-
lowing despatch, which the general sent TO friend at
Fayetteville
DEAR SIR start to morrow to join my command at
Fort Smith. BEN. McCULLOCH, Brig General.

doubt command all the Missouri troops together with

the cause above SELF success above titles, and harmonic
