Affairs in Missouri. The recent brilliant successes of the Confederate troops in Missouri have electrified every true Southern heart. Never has a State been more cruelly oppressed and treated; never in America have any but the Indians perpetraMissouri have electrified every true Southern heart. Never has a State been more cruelly oppressed and treated; never in America have any but the Indians perpetrated such inhuman butcheries as those in St. Louis, in which innocent citizens, and actually women and children, were shot down in cold blood by the myrmidons of Gen. Lyon and Gen. Siegel, the first of whom has happily been sent to his account. It is for false philanthropy, will find their mistake before long. The Avenger of Blood is on the heels of those ruffians in Missouri, and we trust will be are long in Maryland also, and then the long arrears will be paid. Oh, for that precious hour of issouri, and we trust will be are long in Maryland also, and then the long arrears will be paid. Oh, for that precious hour of a people's deliverance! We are sure it is at hand in Missouri. We fervently hope that Maryland will not be far behind.
Personal. Professor H. B. Todd, of Missouri, an ardent friend and advocate of the Southern cause has arrived in this city on business connected with his State.
From Norfolk.[special correspondence of the Dispatch.] Norfolk, Aug. 16th, 1861. The news of the glorious victory in Missouri that the Yankee hirelings and minions have been routed, was received here with joyous feelings, exciting lively emotions of delight in many a true Southern heart. Today our city is comparatively quiet, and with regard to wholesale business operations, Norfolk is, of course, a dull place. The hotels and boarding-houses, however, are very extensively patronized — some of them crowded, principally by brave Southerners, who have come hither at the trumpet call to battle, ready and eager for the contest with any number of misguided Northern fanatics, thieves and cut-throats, who may dare to attempt a landing upon our shores. The monotonous tramp of squads of soldiers, the rumble of army wagons, and the rapid galloping of war-steeds, give a military appearance to our streets; such evidences of war as are also common in your city of hills and inclined
son conveyed in these two memorable examples. He made the most extraordinary efforts to conceal the terrible catastrophe which has overtaken the Federal arms in Missouri. He telegraphed to all quarters of Yankeedom, that the Federalists had obtained a signal triumph. And yet, in spite of all his efforts at concealment, he was c and Polk were on the point of joining McCulloch, and that the whole force would move directly upon St. Louis. We already regard the Confederate cause as won in Missouri. We regard Missouri as not less certainly than Virginia a member of the great Southern Republic. Praise be to Him to to whom all praise is due for the gloriousn the point of joining McCulloch, and that the whole force would move directly upon St. Louis. We already regard the Confederate cause as won in Missouri. We regard Missouri as not less certainly than Virginia a member of the great Southern Republic. Praise be to Him to to whom all praise is due for the glorious consummation.
llions of his loan taken, or rather proposals have been made to that extent, by the Banks of Boston, Philadelphia, and New York, the same being payable in quarterly instalments — say fifty millions every three months, in the currency of the Banks, they taking Treasury notes as security at the rate of seven and three-tenths. The Banks expect to have the first payment returned to them in deposits before the second is due, and this arrangement is an indication that they lock upon peace as more than probable before three months are ended. All the passengers who have lately arrived from that section concur in the belief that the process of disintegration in the North has begun and is going on hopefully; that the Northern people are demoralized by the defeats at Manassas and in Missouri; that there are decided indications of peace, and that it is utterly hopeless to raise another army for the invasion and subjugation of the South, and very doubtful if they can even defend Washington.
News from Missouri. --We are informed that a private dispatch was received in this city on Saturday from a very reliable source in Arkansas, which states that at the recent battle near Springfield, Missouri, the Confederates lost, in killed, wounded, and prisoners, about one thousand, and the Federals lost twenty-five hundred in killed, wounded, and prisoners. General Lyon was killed. Six cannon were taken, besides a large amount of stores, wagons, &c., &c. The Federal rout was complete. Generals McCulloch and Price were in hot pursuit of the enemy, and they entertained confident hopes of capturing the whole of General Siegel's command.--Generals Hardee and Jeff. Thompson are moving to the northeast with a view of cutting off General Siegel's retreat towards St Louis.

The Late Battle in Missouri--The people in the North are beginning to open their eyes. The New York Post has the following: But a victory which costs such a man and such a General as Lyon, and is followed by a retreat, and then a second retreat, belongs decidedly to that class of which a renowned General said that "a few more such victories would ruin him."
