fer's RIkkI ? 1 and battery and tour com; anies, 1>, I", L
and H. of the Ibird New York Civulry. It was Ue
?igt.ed that this comsiinl should operate directly
against Trenton, a place situated at about twenty five or
thirty miles rom Ncwbern.on the Trent river. The sccond
expedition, wucti wi4 competed of the Scvente.nih
Massachusetts reg.ment and a jiortioh <f the Third N w
Ye*k cavalry, was p aced under tho commanJ of colonel
fellows. Tho latter expo itlon was to attack the rebels
at Pollocksvillo, a sm;>ll t< wn, s.tuated ft a dis
lance i f thirteen ro les from N'?? b, rn, on the other side
?f the Trent river from Colonel Lee's command.
These expeditions, in th.ir movements, formed the
greater i artof a oircle, an 1 thuh commanded a ixisition
to entrap the guerillas, who, wbon they find tho Yauketa
are cennng, retire to their bouses, unsaddle their horses
and put them out of sight and then on our approach
?tastiest strong t ci n seat mauls, declare they hare not
mi n any rebel force for several days, and endeavor to
gecelveus; while, on tb? other hand, no sooner aro we
? at of si--ht than away tbey go ou fast horses, and,
?ourier 1 ke. inform those ab??l of our approach. By
thin means the other guerillas retire to their houses and
pretend to be g od old fai mers, loving the Union and the
I'nion pei^le "ri.ht smart," and the like ; whife the
tegular rebel troops fall back and secrete themselves in
the woods or some other out of the way place, and thus
??oid detection and capture.

On Friday a'tern- on im the sun was fast'ending Its
westward course, Colonol Lee's command travelled slow"
1 j ali ng the Trent ri .id. \otwlthstandiag his men mani
faeted a pplrit of ieuilessiicss for an early encounter
with the enemy, still so gr*a( vraf :he enervating eflTeet

After a thorough wearying of the physical being, and
?o Utile taiatli n of the ]?wers of the m*ntal organism
hoth in enduratice and otberwlM, our lorces arrived at
Deep Gully, where preparation wus made to make a halt
fur the night. Those who went ih advance, through the
af-cey of a guide, di-evred the whereabouts of the
skeleton of a buildiug, thin aervmg as a temporary head
qvsrfers for the |>rereat. Thi< building was remarkable
iii the c bar^cter of its appearance, on the interior as well

was their retr-'?t that they were forced to le ive their

this place we found live chn.iccn?. cotdlt.ed under tree

of the government to the condition o. the "blockade" on

Private parties are willing to enter upon such an agree
ment. Among the sunken vet-sels are three government
lightships; these must have cost at lsast $10,000 each.
Now , Troon actual observation I am fully convinced that
it would be a matter of great proht to tho government to
raise these vessels before they becoma subject to decay.

This, being the fourth attempt to murder guards, and
frooj ihe same quarter, created much excitement, and

der orders, proceeded with orderly regularity to re.
move the furniture from the houses thereabout*. In an
incredibly ahort space of timo six or seven of the quar

homestead held out stoutly, being very substantially
built, but finally it had to yield, and, amid a cloud of
lime dost, it came tumbling to tho ground. When the
main building wus demolished there was cheei ing, after

A well finished rifle and two double barrelled shot
guns, loaded and rapped, were.found iu the house when
the work of destruction commenced.
One of the nrrested parties will probably be hung if
sufficient proof can bo brought against him?as an ex

Ueoeral Foster acted with a promptitude that met the
hearthy approbation of all good Union men. May ne be

near Koanoke Island, and destroyed a salt works, the lost

the benefit of the rebels, and that It woe aedtetly Bent to

Rosnoko river, and intercepted two mnu while smug

men were taken prisoners, and the captured mall turned
over to Ool.tHoward for his examination. This expedition
also took other prisoners, one of whom was, at the time
of his capture, ou a road to a rebel camp, with a wagon
full of hams. Our boys not only took tbe man, but also

pin.-. IH, wit'.ii' fo \y two miles of the city df Kookuk.
V\ iiti hiasoven hundred nmn h* c uld have pounced on
Keokuk without iliflkulty,as there woru then no troops
in that put or a siugle piece of artillery for
its dafenca. llio attack oa th) rebols defea:ed this
importaat movement. 1'Uo rebels after thin attack scat
tered in am Ul squads,but could uot bo closely pursued by
Ma or CI< pper's command, bee use four days' bard riding
ha ! exhausted the physical eu lurai.e/of buries and mo.i.
A day's rest was therefore necessary.
Porter c gang, reduced to live hundred by desertions
and It sses in the tight tu Scotland county, met again uoar
Florida, to Marten county, an the 21sl. Here they were
attacked by Mitjor Caldwell, with two companies of tho
Third Iowa cavalry,and again ? altered with asevero loss.
lite activity of our ofilcers in Northern Msaoui i fright
ened the smaller squads of guerillas, and to strength' n
tucmselves. as well as to save Porter from annihilation,
several bauds, comprising ail of l'oindexter's end Cobb's
guer.llas, joined him. Tlioir united forces numbered 900
strong. Thoy crossed the North Missouri Railroad, n oar
Mexico, In JAudrain county, und made tracks for Kay
aud Carroll counties, with the evident intention o cross
'ng the Missouri river between Arrow Rock and Losing
tou. Major Cloppoe's command, consisting of four compa
nies of Morrill's llorse aud two companies of the third]
Iowa cavalry, were close on their heels. Without allowing
tntm, horses or rebels any rest, they pushed onward Into
BaJiaway county. Ill the meantime General SchoQeld
ordered Colonel Guitar, with three companies of the
Ninth battalion of (mounted) Seutc militia, to cross the
river from Jefferson City and Join Malor Cloppee and
Major Caldwell. The order was obeyed; but the rebel
Captain Porter got wind of it through spies, and hastoiied
to attack his pursuers in hopo of routing them befuro
tho ieinfoi cements from Jefferson City arrived.
Luckily the rebel caleulatieu failed. Colonel Guita
joined tint other detachments, and although the whole
command was only seven hundred Strong, luey delected
oil' in usaiid guerillas with a loaaon our side of lort.v
ttve kilted and * ?< o.iod, and the rebel side of about
OLO hundred kl 'd aud wounied. including Captain Cobb,
one of iU> - ?-ri< a iotdeis l'h s light took piace on Mon
day, th? 2?>ih, at M- ore's Mill,seven mi lets east of 1'ulloii,
in ? aiiavay county, on tbe n ad to Warrunton. Our
forces ciptured a Urge quantity of spoils, including guns,
tents, b.i?.g.ige ana equipments. (July ouo prisoner
is reported as captured. There must be some
special reason why tins poor devil is exempt
ed from the usual tate of guerillas. Takiug
prisoners, with arms m their, hands Is among
things of a by gon<> age in Missouri. Our accounts front
the scene of the action are down to Monday night. The
rebels, as usual, scattered In a half dozen parties. Col.'
titular, as senior officer in counnanjJ, ordered instant pur
suit, dividing his command into detachments lully equal
to tbe ta?k of capturing the separated rebels. VVe expect
hourly intelligence of further successes in exterminating
the last remnant of Porter's gang. It is fortunate that
those scoundrel have been made to feel the weight of
military authority. They promised to become exceedingly
dangerous j but now, fortunately, are on the verge of anni
hilation.
As if rebel audacity had not been carried sufficiently
far, a gang of fifty villains actually organized and equipped
themselves as guerillas in St. Louis last week, and on
Mouday morning, at an early hour, they assembled
in the suburbs of tlie city,on the Manchester road, only
twelve miles? from General Scbollield's headquarters,
lhey were joined by twenty additional recruits from
Manchosiar, and started for the Interior by cross roads to
join some guerilla organization, or work independently on
their own hook as bushwhackers. As soon aa the news
reached headquarters, a company of cavalry was des
patched in pursuit, anil orders given to post commanders
at Franklin and at Potoei, Mo., to start out expeditions to
eut them off. A report reached headquarters last even
ing, and is published as authentic to-day, that the Potosi
expedition succeeded in overhauling the St. Louis party
and capturing their horses and arms, besides killing
eleven of them. It Is presumed they followed the usual
guerilla tactics ia such cases?that is, abandoning their
horses and taking to tbe brush. This report lacks con
trmation, although clearly probable.
A skirmish occurred near Patten, Mo., on the 26th, la
which two hundred guerillas were routed by one com
pany of the Tenth battalion of Stale militia, tinder Major
Chevereaux. Twenty live rebels were kilted, 'throe men
were wounded on our side, and one horse killed.
A despatch from Bella states that nearly fifteen
hundred guerillas, well armed aud mounted, crossed the
road trom Potosi to Jeffermon. within ten miles oi Steel
vlile, in Crawford county. They were bound southward,
and probably meditate a junction with McUride and
Coleman on the Arkansas line.
A stampede from various plncos In Deut, Pulaaki,
Crawford, Franklin, Gasconade, Mou.tcau aud Cole coun
ties is bei.eved to have taken place since tbe order was
piomulgatcd to enroll all the State militia. Kobbeiiesof
solitary dwellings, horse stealing and forcible seizures of
urmfl are repotted as thjck as Vicksbuig mosquitoes.
Passengers arriving by railroad mention the frequent
api'iar*.^' ?f squads of auspicious horsemen, carrying

aB well a.-; the Uimoil States lorce?, In MisS'-iyl, i* fully
alive to tli'j Importance of preventing miscli Pf the
rebeiH in that section.
lhe reccm order for the enrollment of the militia has
excited a great deal of reeling e\ery where throughout
the State. The inoviuble effect is to mark every agres
sion iSt at ouce. These who are capable of doing mis
chief to the Cnioncause will now join guerilla gauge, and
piore reliance than ever caa be placed on those MiSsourl
pya wb" r;j?!n. 5i bome. Tbye is no don)}} tfiaj the
recent fui-riUa opiratlouJandTLw movements or uorit
iat: for the next month have been and will be influenced
by the order to enroll tho Stale militia. The temporary
u.itchiei caused by this rumble diEaflection will be more
than balanced by the discovery of the exact strength
and power to do evil possessed by the re'els 111 this
State. GeLeral SchoQeld has moditled bis original
order by extending the time for enrollment to
the loth of August, and by allowing ono
third of the number ef persons subject to
military doty to exempt themselves from active serviee
by paying ten doilars, in addition to a tax of ono mill on
every'dollar'a w or tit of taxable property owned by them
in this State. These modification* will diminish the
number of active men materially; but there will be an
ample force left to maintain the peace of the State.
The order to disarm all the inhabitants of the interior
will have a good e fleet. At present the occupants of a
dutai bed farmhouse, with/wo or three snotgune, kc., are
Incapable m offering any serious resistance to gnnfIII?.
and nineteen times in twenty guerillas seise such amis
for their owa use. In this way tlicy make up for arms
taken from them or which they hava been forced to
abandon when attacked.
Allaire iu the eity present .no special features of
interest. The enrollment o( militia hsis pro#rested slow
ly. 1'robxb y t ires h .tidied young seecealonI ts have
