Nothing more was beard of the agent, Census ov Missourt.—The exact population of Missouri by the census of 1860, is not known, but the Republican says it will not fall short of 1,260,000; being an increase of 577,956 in the past ten years.

The circumstance created considerable talk in Washington. Gen. Dix, the Postmaster at New York, writes tothe President that Major Anderson’s conduct in taking possession of Fort Sumter meets the entire Aparorel of the most extreme secession men in New York.
