THE CIrY-Business in the city, inst
now, IS quite brisk, and our merchants
especially the groesrymsn-ars sell
ing largely, aud at fall rates.
While we are glad to see our mer-
chants doing weIl, we have apprshen-
sions that much Of the stock sold ia this
city ultimately finds its way into the
hands OF the rebels. This is net the
fault OF our merchants, as we are conf
dent that there IS scarcely house in
this city that would knowingly sell to
rebels. Butwe are told that large guam
titles of goods are being permitted to
Padueah, aud other Kentucky towns
That many Of these goods find their
way into the hands of rebels, no sane
man doubtE What the proper remedy
to apply may be, we are not prepared to
say, bnt Government officers should be
unusually vigilant Just now

The Situation In Missouri.

We learn from dispatches in Mon
days papers that the marching aud
countsrmarcbing in Missouri has enl-
minated in great battle, in which, as
everybody expected, the rebel General
Price was defeated. II seems that
when General Price found that General
Roseerans was concentrating formula
BILE army in bis imnediats front, be at
tempted reTograde movement towards
Kansas, intending, no doubt, to wreak
vengeance upon that patriotic and
plucky little State. He had not gone
far in this direction, however, before be
was met by General Blunt, with 1000
cavalry and four howitzers Blunt, as
he is wont to do, without regarding the
odds against km, fought Price and his
whole army, but was gradually forced
back. In the meantime, General Cur
lis, With a Considerable force, composed
largely OF Kansas militia, came up and
renewed the battle. The stubborn mau-
ner in which Biunt and Curtis, with
their raw troops, contested every inch Of
ground, so delayed Price in bis move
ments that General Plsasanton, in com.
mand Of Rosecrsnss cavalry, came up
with him and at once assailed him.
Placed thus between two 6rss, Price
army was assaulted by both Curtis and
Pleasantou, and completely routed.
The rebels are now attempting to get
out of the State by the way Of Fort
Scott. Plsasanton captared a large
number of prisoners and three pieces Of
artillery The following are the only
particulars Of the final battle that We
have seen: sa

Great victory is the result. Price .
whole army Is reported rapidly retreat.
isg South Our cavalry is in hot pur.
suit. with Plessantou's iorcs, numbering
IL, 900 men. The only way Price can
strike is for Fort Scott, but be will be
too closely followed to do much damage.
Pleasanton closed yesterdays battle al
Independence by capturing large nun.
Der of prisoners and three pieces Of
artillery. This morning our line formed
Eve miles south of Kansas City, on the
wes,port Road. Skirmisbing continued
several hours, when the whole force ad-
vEncsd, and heavy fighting ensaed- The
enemy rapidly fell back and formed q
new line q mile and half from their
FIRST position. An artillery engagement
then ensued, our infantry slowly ad-
vsncing. Fighting was kept up for ten
miles from this point, the enemy gradu-
ally falling back Pleasanton then
came in on our left, and grand charge
followed, resulting in the total rout Of
the enemy. When our informant left
the front, our whole cavalry was in vig-
orous pursuit, the infantry following
Gen Blunt commanded the volunteer
force on the left; Gen. DeitxIer the cen
tire, composed Of militia, Who behaved
gallantly. The ID Colorado, Col. Ford.
was in the thickest Of the fight. and
made several brilliant charges Gen.

vance. Our loss 10 not heavy; that of
