RETREAT OF GEN. PRIUE-ENCOMrU
ON GEN. POPE.
OTTERvILLE, Dec. 26-Information, that
is supposed to be reliable, received here,
says that after the party General Pope
sent out to johnson county, drove in Gen.
Raines' pickets, Price withdrew Raines'
division across the river, and the next day
marched eight miles southwark with his
whole force.
At last accounts our enemies were at
Neosho, and the main army under Price
had just left Huntersville on their way to
Warsaw. -4."-
Price says that his retrograde movement
was in obedience to orders from the Presi-
dent of the Confederate States but his
men generally believe that it was in conse-
quence of General Pope's advance, and
Prices fear that force would be thrown
forward to cut of his supplies southwark,
and another force advancing in front-in
which event his supplies would have been
exhausted 10 few days, and he would have
been compelled to abandon his commanding
position at Osceola. = ~
Whatever the motive, it is certain that
the move was not an advantageous one for
Price, for many of his men, who for months
have been expecting to march upon and
drive the Federals from the State, will be
disguised, and will refuse to follow him out
of Missouri.
General Halleck's policy of showing no
mercy to marauders and bridge burners, and
OF dealing the utmost leniency with those
who lay down their arms and return to their
houses and peaceful avocations, will do
much to restore peace to the State.
Gen Pope has received from the troops
under bis command numberess evidences of
their appreciation of his ability. Yester-
day beautiful flag was sent to him, and
last night he was serenaded by one of our
best bands, and congratulations innumera
BILE came in upon him from every quarter.
The troops are in good condition, and
are anxious for move. General Pope is
sued an order some time ago making colo
nels of regiments responsible for the con.
duct of their regiments, and the transporter
ton and good order of arms and equip
ments. This has been enforced, and when
the order was issued for our last move we
were en- route in three hours, although the
order came at midnight. The success of the
movement, and the parise and cOngratula
lions that the troops have received have
good effect upon them, and they will move
forward when next ordered with still great
er alacrity, and with still stronger assuran.
ces of success under General Pope's com.
mand.

THE EUROPA AT FORT WARREN.
BosroN, Dec. 26.-The steamer Europa
stopped at Fort Warren yesterday, which
gives some appearance of truth to the re.
port that Mason and Slidell were put on

The report in regard to Mason and Sill
