Gen. Price, it seems, SAYS the Memphis
Appeal, has ,Sccn steadily advancing toward
st. Louis. Farmington, where the northern
telegrams locate his advance on the 25th-rlt.,
is about seventy miles southwest ofthe city,
aud twenty miles west of the Mississippi.
Fredericktowr, where his main force was, lis
about twenty miles south of Harrington, on
the direct road to Pocahontas, Arkansas,
where it is understood Gen. Price concentra-
ted Lis forces The Federals report his
strength at thirty thousand; how this may,
be we cannot say. 1t is reasonable to sup
pose, however, his army is Formidable one,
or he would not have advanced so far to
position where the enemy can SO easily con-
ceatrate against him (either in his front at
some point below St. Louis, or in his rear
by landing at Cape Girardeau,) and have
liver base So near at. hand.
