FEDERAL TTRASSY IL st. LOUIS.
We extract the following from the Memphis Ava
lanche of Saturday last: ~
We have conversed with gentleman who left
St. Louis last Friday, landed about sig miles from
Commerce, and W. Mt direct to New Madrid. and
hence by the steamer Kentucky yesterday He
brings anything but nattering accounts The
prisoners recently captured while on their way to
Join Price, are represented to have been poorly
clad, and compelled to stay in the cars on the
night of Christmas eve. The next day they. were
removed to McDowell's Medical College, and from
the malignant feelings induged towards them, our
informant has security that they are not victims
Of the greatest esaelty'and Injustice. No one was
even allowed to see them to render them comforts.
The burning of the bridges in Northern Missouri
has greatly exasperated the feelings of Gen. Halleck
| and the Federals generally and hence they feel
like wreakipg vengeance upon the heads q those
| whom accident has placed in their power Halleck
rules in ST. Louis with a rod of iron. The Seees-
sionists of St. Louis he is particularly, hard upon

| Many prominent citizens, suspected OF southern
sympathies, have been arrested, and without trial

sionists Of St. Louis live and and have their
being in such atmosphere Of terror that they
dare not call their souls their own.
| Nevertheless, among the young people OF Inc
place-and particularly among the young ladies'
there is abiding feeling in favor Of the Southern
cause. An illustration OF this fact occurred few
DAYS before our informant left. When Lincoln
officer was riding along theIstreet, dressed in al
his gded fnery a young lady shouted "Hurrah fo1
, JEFF. Dayis,' as he passed. That officer went i'm
mediatey to camp, reported that he had beer
grossly insulted while riding along by ladies; ant

From Bowling Green.

The Bowling Green correspondent OF the Nash.
vile Banner writes, under date of the 3lst ut., as
On yesterday another brave and well disciplined
and equipped regiment arrived here from Colum.
bus and Immediately went into temporary
quarters Do not infer from this that the strength
OF Columbus is being in the least weakened; other
troops took the places of those who came here,5
and every necessary precauton is taken to keep
that stronghold impregnable. To-day two add.
tional regiments of General Bowen's command
arrived. They are the Ninth Arkansas Regiment,
900 strong, commanded by Col. Bradley, and the
Tenth Arkansas, 500 strong, of the same division,
commanded by Col. Merrick. They are. in excel.
lent condition, well drilled and provided for, and
anxious to meet the enemy. They are from camp
Beauregard, near Feliciana, Graves county, Ky.
Their places at Camp B. were supplied by fresh
troops from Mississippi. Other reinforcements in
large numbers, and several additional batteries are
on the way to this place and will soon arrive.
MOVEMENTS OF GEN. FLoYD.-It was stated, in
my last, that this distinguished leader, with his
command Of three thousand men, had reached
Gallatin and taken up his line of march for Scots
vile, Kentucky. He reached that place without
his tents and took up position. -
1t is reported here to-day, on what is very good
authority, that he had sooner taken his position
atScottsyille than being threatened by largely su
perior numbers of the enemy, he deemed it prudent
to shift his ground. He lett Scottsville, according
| to his report and proceeded to the vicinity oi
Franklin, in Simpson county. This movement
places him in the rear of our army here, and
twenty-one miles only from our Notifications. The
enemy will not and dare not approach him. The
Federals who thus threatened him are, it is pre-
sumed, the commands Of Ward, Grider, Harlan &

meet them, and wherever and whenever the meet
