City, Nov. 20--[Special to the St. Louis Democrat.]--The old terror has settled down upon the counties of the southwest since the retrograde movement of our army, and refugeas are beginning to arrive again, driven from their homes by fear of Price's men, who are reported to be again advancing. Mr. Gravelly, a member of the State Convention, arrived here last night, from Springfield, which he left on Friday last. He says a body of 3,000 of Price's cavalry have made their appearance at Sarcoxie, and that foraging partles follow up the track of our receding army, plundering the Union citizens, and renewing with impunity every species of outrage. He passed a train of emigrant wagons a mile long, containing Union refugees, and another train of five wagons arrived here to-day. Five prisoners were brought in to-day from Calloway county, being the first fruits of an expedition which was sent into that county yesterday.

The Navy Department make no concealment of the fact that dispatches are expected daily from the Gulf with an account of the opening of the guns of Fort Pickens upon the rebel batteries. Colonel Brown has repeatedly written for orders allowing him to blow Bragg and his batteries off the opposite shore. He has been chafing like a hound in the lash; but if I am not mistaken the work has been given that will make Pensacola ours. The selected prisoners.

It is objected that the Government policy is to deprive the Confederates of such necessaries. There is no danger, however, at present, that much commerce will be opened with them. All the cotton that we obtain must be taken by force, it, indeed, it can be forced in any large quantity. From Missouri — Price reported to be again advancing.

Colonel Croghan was carried to the nearest house, and was eared for as well as the state of the case would admit of by Surgeon Chase, of the Ohio Thirteenth.--He was a gallant man and an accomplished officer, and though an enemy the sight of his dying agonies "drew tears from the eyes of men unused to weep." The Colonel's father and Gen. Benham were old acquaintances, (in fact, I believe, classmates at West Point,) and the interview between them was of course unusually painful. We did all we could for the unfortunate man, but human aid was vain, and he expired the same afternoon. We brought down the body on our return, and Gen. Benham intends forwarding it to his friends at once. At 12.20 our advance reached McCoy's mills and a sharp action at once ensued. The enemy's forces consisted of the cavalry engaged in the former skirmish, and at least one--I think two--regiments of infantry. They
