The late battle in Missouri. Quincy, Ill., Sept. 23. --The siege of Mulligan commenced on Thursday, the 12th, and continued from day to day until Friday last at 5 o'clock P. M., when the Union flag was hauled down. The men fought for forty-nine hours without water, and had only three barrels of vinegar with which to quench their thirst.
