Alexandria Mo., five miles from Keokuk, was taken by our guerrillas on the 3d inst. A letter from Cameron to the Missouri Republican says, that Northern Missouri is literally full of organized bands of rebels, and citizens are flocking to these bands by hundreds daily, and will soon have the whole country in their hands. He says all is dark and obscure, and every move of the Federal Government makes matters still worse. Without a military Government, he adds, we will be completely overruled by the rebels in two months. Porter has raised over 2,600 men, and they are hourly increasing as he moves from place to place. The London Times anticipates a general uprising in the border States since McClellan's defeat. It says the Yankees are daily receiving the conviction that the Confederates can never be subjugated.

McClellan to undertake the movement. On the previous day it was suddenly announced that Jackson was about to act on McClellan's rear, and that Beauregard had arrived at Richmond.

The enemy's movements on James river. The Petersburg Express hears from a source entitled to the highest credit that McClellan is evacuating his position at Berkeley, steady reports of which have been in circulation for some days past. The recent movements on Malvern Hill and the pretended permanent occupation of Coggin's Point and Maycox, are now known to have been more debts to cover his evacuation. A party who was recently in McClellan's army says the parties who are throwing up fMcClellan's army says the parties who are throwing up fortifications on the opposite side of the river have never exceeded fifteen hundred or two thousand, and laborers and soldiers are changed every day a fresh party going over in the morning, and those who went over the previous day immediately returned. It is considered a sort of excursion to cross the river, and the south bank has been declared by the Yankee surgeons the healthiest. The citizens of Prince George and Charles City have been largely robbed of negroes and other property.

The same characteristic is observed in all the Yankees. From McClellan, with his braggadocios and the lice he told to support it, down to most wretched scribbler that habitually murders Quee of the chapter to the other.

The campaign will be finished in six weeks, says the Herald, and the rebellion will be

ram Fingal, &c. The news which we obtain from Northern papers to the 9th inst., will be found interesting.--The late action of the Federal Administration calling for 600,000 more troops to put down the "rebellion," and levying a heavy draft upon the people to make up the same, has created great alarm at the North; and so rapid has been the stampede of the citizens, that Lincoln has been compelled to issue coercive orders to force them to remain at home till the draft is filled. From McClellan's army we have little of interest. The latest dispatches represent his forces as having withdrawn from Malvern Hill. From the New York Herald's army correspondence we have the following, under date of "Harrison's Landing, August 7 P. M.:" The force under General Hooker, which went to Malvern Hill yesterday morning for a reconnaissance and a fight, has just returned to camp in good health and fine spirits. They got no sleep to speak of last night, as the preparations for the march
