been preceded for a week by daily dispatches of a similar character, every one of which has been falsified. We trust and believe that the authentic details of this affair at Laurel Hill will relieve the news of all its worst features, and reduce our misfortune to the mere falling back, after hard fighting, of a smaller force before a greatly larger one. At all events, be this news ever so true, it is far more than counterbalanced by the glorious tidings from General McCulloch's command in Missouri. P. S.--Since the foregoing was written, we have had the positive assurance of the authenticity of the following facts: That Gen. Garnett was mortally wounded in the disaster alluded to, and that the Confederate forces lately under his command retired in good order. General Garnett was wounded during the retreat of his forces. The enemy outnumbered him seven to one, but after their partial success did not advance in force beyond the point from which they drove Gen. Garnett.

Our extracts from its columns must necessarily be short, though we believe we present to our readers all the news of interest which it contained: The war in Missouri--defeat of Col. Smith. St. Louis, July 11. --J. H. Bowen, agent of the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad, brings the following account of affairs in that bridge between here and Palmyra, Mo., was burnt last night — also the bridge on the Palmyra road — by the Secessionists, in order to prevent sending troops into Missouri. General Mather has sent a detachment of one company of artillery, with infantry and cavalry, by boat across the Mississippi to Marion city, on the Missouri shor of their wounds, and that a fourth was also dangerously wounded. Cairo, July 11.--A gentleman from Memphis reports that a regiment left there yesterday for Missouri.

From Missouri. Louisville, July 16. --Missouri papers dated on the 13th inst., three days distant from the seat of war, place the belligerent force of three columns of ten thousand each, under Gov.

Those under Rains and Parsons, and under Price and McCulloch have Missouri papers dated on the 13th inst., three days distant from the seat of war, place the belligerent force of three columns of ten thousand each, under Gov.

mmunition, is a trial through which few can pass without some abatement of ardor. We cannot but think that when Congress meets in July, it will be necessary to provide for a stricter and more lasting organization, to be constituted of harder material. What the Southerners may be doing we know not; but from the hints of our Special Correspondent we should conclude that their military authorities will have the same difficulty. War can never be waged on so large a scale without regular armies, and to regular armies it must come at last on the American Continent. In the meantime the fate of the Border States hangs in the balance; Kentucky, Missouri, and even Tennessee are threatened with disruption as well as Virginia. The first victories will no doubt decide to which Confederation these shall attach themselves, or whether they shall be broken asunder. A mighty contest looms in the distance, and all that we can clearly see is that our own policy of neutrality is both wise and just.
