ATTACK OX SPRINGFIELD, MISSOUKI.
St. Loris, Jan. 8. Advices from Spring
field, Mo., state a rebel force, reported to be
6,000 strong, under Burbridge and Marnia
dnke, with six pieces of artillery, are within
two and a half miles of that place, and open
ed on the town without giving notice to re
move the women and children. One thousand
rebel cavalry, in line of battle, are visible from
the town. Gen. Brown has loop-holed the
houses for musketry, and will make a vigor
ous resistance. A dispatch from Gen. Brown,
dated Springfield, Jan. 8, 3 o'clock, p. m.,
ears : "The enemy is crowding ns and fight
ing us close, but my men are behaving well.
1 am holding all the strong positions, and the
enemy must fight as I want him, whether ho
Hkes it or not." A later dispatch says that
Gen. Brown was badly wounded that the en
emy took one of our guns, but were repulsed
at dark and that militia reinforcements were
coining in. Springfield contains a large a
niount of army stores, arms and ammunition.
Telegraphic communication was intorrupted,
nd a party sent out to make repairs have not
been heard from, and it is surmised that they
nave been captnred.
- Latest St. Locis, Jtn. 12. -Lata last night
Gen. Curtis received a dispatch lrom Col.
Crabb, commanding at Springfield, stating
tbst the rebels were repulsed at every advance
opon the place, and that his troops still hold
the town. But little of the town was destroy
ed and that by our own troops. We lost 17
"en killed and a number wounded. We hur
ried 3.5 rebels and many more were taken off
tle field, and left a Urge number of wounded
in our hands. Gen. Curtis lias sent three col
umn of troops in pursuit of the enemy.
THE SALE OF F0BT SWELLING.
lour readers will remember the sale, by
Secretiry Floyd, in June, 1857, of Fort Snel
"Dg, together with 8,000 acres of land, to
Franklin Steele (and others, whose names do
not appear) for $90,000. The sale w is a pri
vate one, no public notice whatever being giv-en-
The terms were, one-third cash, one
third in one year, and the balance in two years.
These payments, as we are assured by a prom
,nent citizen or Minnesota, have never been
Kiie; i but Franklin is in possession, and has
teen in possession since be purchased the
property, the Government being his tenant,
&d being charged rent, as is believed, at a
rte which will leave it in debt to Steele over
Qd above the purchase money still due. This,
notwithstanding that the fort was extensively
'epsired last Fall, at the expense of the Gov.
rament, which has used it since April, 1861,
"the State rendezvous for volunteer. Cor.

S The Monitor. Commander Bankhead. late
of the Monitor, left Washington for New Fork
on Monday evening. He is ordered to take
command of the Florida. The correspondent
of tho New York Tribune says that Comman
der Bankhead can find no terms strong enough
in which to praise the heroism and self-sacrificing
devotion of his crew, who clung to their
ship to the very last. Such expressions as
"We won't leave her until she goes down,"
"we'll stick to her as long as the Captain
does," were common among the sailors, while
ropes wcro being thrown to them from the
boats that cime to their assistance. While
Commander Bankhead was enlarging upon the
noble conduct of his men to which be regret
ted that he bad been unable to do justice in
his report, bis eyes filled with tears. Com
mander Bankhead was the last man but two to
leave the Monitor. He jumped into the wa
ter and was picked up by one ol tho Rhode Is
lands' boats. It was apprehended even by ex
perts that the aocident to the Monitor procee
ded from a cause likely to operate in ever ves
sel of her class when exposed to a storm, but
the official report and oral explanation of Com
mander Bankhead have set at rest these fears
by showing that bis vessel was lost through a
leak, and that she retained her buoyancy to
the last.
BAD NEWS FEOM TAXAS.
Advices have been received at New York
that Galveston, Texas, was attacked early in
the morning of January 1st, both by land and
water. The rebels were on five ordinary
steamboats, protected by double rows of cot
ton bales, who picked off our officers and men
by mnketry. Tho Harriet Lane was boarded
and captured by the rebels, and also two
barks loaded with coal.
The Sag-ship Westfield was ashore in anoth
er channel, her crew were taken to the trans
ports, and Cora. Renshaw fearing that she
would fall into the hands of the rebels, blew
her up the explosion occurring prematurely,
Com. Renshaw, Lieut. Zimmerman, and part
of the crew were blown up with her. The gun
boats Clifton and Owasco were engaged but
escaped. Our loss is estimated at from 150 to
160 killed, and 300 taken prisoners. Our men
seem to have been taken by surprise. We
hope the loss will soon be repaired, by the re
capture of Galveston by Gen. Banks.
ARMY OF THE CUMBERLAND .
From Murlreesbero' we learn that Gen. Rose
crans has removed bis headquarters to that
place. The loss of the rebels increases every
dav. Two tnousind of their wounded were
forwarded to Lavergne, but before they reach
ed the place, it was ascertained tLat the town
was accidentally burned, and they were then
sent to Nashville. Many of them still remain
at Murfrcesboro ; as they cannot be removed
on account of the frightful nature of their
wounds from which most of them will die.
Gen. Roseorans has issued an order that all
captured rebel officers shall be confined until
Jeff. Davis' recent order is revoked the reb
el prisoners to subsist on army rations. All
food contributed by their friends shall be con
fiscated far hosnital use, and a repetition of
such contributions will be a jail offence.
Our whole loss during the battle at Mur
freesboro in killed, wounded and missing, is
not over i .000. The rebel loss is said to be
from 12,000 to 15,000.
THE VICKSBURG FIGHT.
News from Vicksburg of a deflnate charac
ter has at last been received. Gen. Sherman
was forced to fall back, when l.e had reached
a point within two miles of the city the reb
els being reinforced to overwhelming numbers.
Sherman re-erapnrked on hi transports, it is
said, by order of Gen. McClemand, who took
command of our forces, on his arrival there,
in tha latter part of the week. The principal
fight of Sherman was by bis center under
Gens. Smith and Blair. Our losses are put at
600 killed, 1,500 wounded, and 1,000 missing
in all, 3,100. The Rebels pursued our for
ces to the gunboats, but were unable to do se
rious damage within range of the guns. So
the Vicksburg Expedition is a failure; but
another attempt on a larger scale will doubt
less soon be made.
