has received from the Governors addressed on the late general orders, the most enthusiastic and patriotic responses to the call for additional troops.

The great battle in Missouri.accounts from both Sides. The St. Louis Democrat (Black Republican) of the 15th inst., has a description of the great battle in Missouri, furnished by a Springfield correspondent. We copy the material portion: Of course many acts of valor were performed not witnessed by me, but among those I saw conspicuous were Captain Gratz, leading his men against overwhelming odds, and falling in death just as he had repulsed the foe, Lieutenant Murphy dashing forward ahead of the line, waiving his sword high in the air, shouting on ward to the almost wavering men, who gained fresh courage from the exhibition, and pushing forward, drove the enemy from the field. In this fight, many of our brave soldiers fell to rise no more, while Colonel Andrews had his horse shot from under him and was wounded himself slightly.

The Richmond Brig Amy Warwick --A New Question.--The Boston Traveller, of the 16th inst., furnishes the following: The case of the prize brig Amy Warwick, of Richmond, Va., captured while on its way from Rio to that port with a cargo of coffee, by a vessel of the blockading squadron, came up by assignment before Judge Sprague, of the United States District Court, this morning--United States District Attorney Dana for the Government; Sidney Bartlett and Edward Bange for the claimants. The counsel agree as to main facts in the case. It is not claimed by the Government that the vessel had run the blockade, or was trying to run it, when captured. The only ground upon which it is claimed is, that it is the property of a public enemy, being owned by citizens of Richmond; and the principal question that arises is, whether the citizens of Virginia, which State is now in rebellion, can be considered as public enemies. This will probably be argued at length at some future day. Th
