nce to the statement that General Price is making a successful move northward. The Republican asserts that he was reported as advancing on Sedalia, having crossed the Osage river with his entire force, estimated at thirty thousand strong, and daily increasing. The number of troops at Sedalia the Republican puts at six thousand, at Otterville one thousand, at Syracuse six thousand, and at Tipton nearly as many, amounting in all to about nineteen thousand. The St. Louis News of the day previous, (the 26th,) had received intelligence that Gen. Price had certainly Searched Osceola on the 22d inst — a point sixty-five miles south of Sedalie, and about twenty from Warsaw. The News thinks that his object is to advance to the Missouri river and select winter quarters in that region, and nervously expresses a hope that movements will be speedily made to circumvent this design. This paper adds that Price's army is estimated from 25,000 to 50,000, but thinks it not over 20,000.
