The guerrilla Warfare in the West--Northern news, &c.

--The Tribune has a dispatch from Grenade, dated yesterday, which says Capt. Maxwell, with forty guerrillas, attacked a hundred Federal Yankees near Friar's Point yesterday, killing seventeen and capturing six. Our loss was one killed. Capt. Maxwell was wounded.

Alexandria Mo., five miles from Keokuk, was taken by our guerrillas on the 3d inst.

A letter from Cameron to the Missouri Republican says, that Northern Missouri is literally full of organized bands of rebels, and citizens are flocking to these bands by hundreds daily, and will soon have the whole country in their hands. He says all is dark and obscure, and every move of the Federal Government makes matters still worse. Without a military Government, he adds, we will be completely overruled by the rebels in two months. Porter has raised over 2,600 men, and they are hourly increasing as he moves from place to place.

The London Times anticipates a general uprising in the border States since McClellan's defeat. It says the Yankees are daily receiving the conviction that the Confederates can never be subjugated.
