The News. --The telegraph brings some farther intelligence of war movements in Missouri, from which it would appear that the Southern cause is progressing. It is, as usual, exceedingly vague; but so far as it goes, the inference is that our troops were about to take possession of the town of Springfield, which is situated in the southwestern portion of the State. The money in the Bank, it is said, was placed under Gen. Lyon's protection — a depository which we should consider very unsafe. If this is true, the previous report of Gen. Lyon's death was false. A dispatch from Louisville will attract attention. It indicates a purpose to raise the blockade on certain articles, which would give the Western farmers an opportunity of shipping their surplus produce to the Confederate States. We cannot say that we have much faith in the statement; but if there is any truth in it, the inference is that Secretary Chase is yielding to an outside pressure, in the hope of inducing the

der to guard against Government telegraphic dispatches being used for the information of the Confederates, the Administration has concluded to use a newly invented cypher in transmitting official intelligence. Gen. Heintzleman, in his official report to the War Department, states that early in the battle the Fire Zouaves were broken by a bayonet charge from the 8th Alabama Regiment, and they were not re-organized, nor did they do efficient service during the remainder of the day. Missouri--Unreliable Telegraphic Dispatches. A letter from St. Louis, dated August 5th says: I need scarcely warn you in advance to place no reliance in what the telegraph may inform you respecting battles out here. Its agents here are all in the pay of that gigantic deception established at Washington, and, like its master, they will continue to deceive, if by doing so they can possibly subserve their bad cause. To this day, they have never corrected their lying statements respecting th

Movements in Missouri. Springfield, Mo., Aug. 8 --Much alarm is felt in consequence of reports that the Southerners are flanking the city. Stores are closed, citizens are gathering their valuables, and the State Bank has placed its specie in charge of Gen. Lyon. At Potosi, Mo., about one hundred Secessionists dashed through the town and killed a large number of the Home Guard, and only losing two of their own men. Eleven hundred Southerners are at a point 30 miles below here. St. Louis, Aug. 10--It is reliably stated that Jeff Thomas is hovering in the immediate vicinity of Cape Girardeau.

Interesting from Missouri. Louisville, Aug. 13. --Late and reliable advices, received here from St. Louis, state that that city is being fortified. Thousands of rumors reach here from different parts of Missouri. The river Dutch are all becoming weary of bush-whacking. There are few or no accessions to the Home Guards. It is believed that, in a few days, the Missouri war will be confined to the Abolition invaders and Missourians. Interesting from Missouri.
