From the latest Northern and Southern papers which have been received we make up the following interesting summary of news.

He says: Three days ago a scouting party of five, all told, under a Lieutenant, while moving along the railroad line, between Charleston and Bird's Point, discovered the "Feds" in force. They had moved out that far in the cars, and were advancing South ward on their usual and nearly daily tour of stealing. Our men estimated them to number about 1,500, including 250 cavalry.

These stories have led us to believe that, thus far, Missouri has the better of other seats of hostility for the real romance of war. Most assuredly the fight there has been waged with fiercer earnest than almost anywhere else. The remote geography of the country, the rough, unsewn character of the peoples progress a wild aspect, peculiarly susceptible to deeds, and suggestive of thoughts, of romantic interest. None of these struck us more forcibly than the story of Norah McCartey, the Jeanie Deans of the West.

Her father was an old man — a Secessionist. She had but a single brother, just g
