Mrs. A. Hackey, of Ohio, came to this city yesterday on her return from Missouri, whither she went to visit her father, who resides near Macon City, on the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad. On arriving at the place where he lived, she was informed that the old man, who is in his seventy-third year, and two sons in law, had been given twenty-four hours to leave, by the secessionists in that region, and they had accordingly gone, leaving behind them most of their property, as they were unable to carry it away. The old gentleman’s name is Wm. More. How long will this state of things be permitted to continue in Missouri?— Springfield Journal.
