Movements of troops, &c.

--There are now at Yellville 5,500 troops, including 1,000 Tennesseeans, 2,000 Arkansians, and 800 Kentuckians, with ten pieces of Flying Artillery. The indications are that about 20,000 men are to advance, and every able-bodied man in Southern Missouri is enrolling his name.

[Second Dispatch.]

--Not a word has been received here in confirmation of General Patterson's dispatch, which was telegraphed here on yesterday at noon. The details of such an affair would not have been withheld. The usual morning's report from Trieste fail to-day, and last night's midnight dispatch contained nothing. The invaders evidently have nothing encouraging. [This dispatch evidently refers to the engagement reported near Martinsburg; and white we have no received the first dispatch referred to, we have heard enough to satisfy us that General Patterson had no encouraging news to communicate to his friends, no matter how sanguine he may have been of a brilliant victory over the Confederate forces.]

[Third Dispatch.]

--No goods are going forward. The merchants are generally withdrawing their stocks from the depot.

It has been determined to send no train beyond Bowling Green at present. The Directors are undecided as to the Memphis Branch, as it is on neither road. It is generally understood that no train will go beyond the State here.
