such a force as we could now bring into the field would utterly crush the rebellion. From Missouri — defeat of guerrilla parties — summary execution by citizens. Springfield, Mo., Aug. 7. --At daylight on the morning of the 2d Colonel Lawther, with a band of 125 rebels, attacked Captain Buck's command of 75 Federals at Ozark. Captain Buck, having been apprised of the meditated attack, fired and abandoned his tents and withdrew to the brush; soon after which the enemy rode into trning of the 4th, and killed three of them, wounded seven, and captured 25 horses, 20 guns, most of the clothing and saddles of the men, with 200 letters, and the original authority from the War Department of the Confederate States authorizing Col. Lawther to organize a regiment of partisan rangers for service in Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, and Illinois. Coffee, Hughes and Tracey are making strong efforts to get a foisting in the State, but the activity of our troops has so far prevented it.
