They were persemiting the Union men and plundering private property. These informants also say that late on Sunday evening they met the advance guard of General Pope's division, three miles from Clinton. They think that the rebels were entirely ignorant of the - approach of our troops and express the beOef that they have been surprised antrffUt off. Osceola is about 26 miles South of Clinton, and if our Informants' statements be correct a very rapid advance of Generals Pope's and Steele's divisions has doubtless been made upon Price's head quarters. Advice& from Irlxingtonlate to the effect that since General Prentrtsv threw a few shells into that town the rebels have been vary severe towards the Union men, searching and plundering their houses, and threatening to burn them.
